Feet Troubles Overcome.

Every clerk, policeman. housewife
or person who is compelled to spena
the greater portion of their time
standing on their feet will profit by
adopting sanatiye, curative and
tonic foot wash. 1t is really marvellous
what relief and freedom from foot
soreness follows:
Obtain a Bounce package of viiane
powder and to gallon of hot water,
add teaspoonful; also tablespoon
full OF salt Then immense the feet
from ten to twenty minutes every
night until all the poisons. soreness
and congestion are removed. Corns
callouses, bunions, are relieved
promptly. Excessive sweating, cold
I feet, tired, swollen and aching feet
will soon be unknown. This Is with
out doubt the most effective treat
ment for the feet ever published.

God is the author of law, order and
government that will bring life, peace
