The very pathology of tuberculosis

the rest of tile body against the germs

the lung of nutriment. This is what

Pain


You reckless men and women who
are nestered with corns and WIS have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lock jaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
ieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts out with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap-
piled and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without infaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any Of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet Of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hash t any freezone he can get
it at any wholesale drug house for you.
