LIKE AN ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells Why Corn is So Painful and
Says Cutting Makes Them
Grow.

Press an electric button and you
form a contact with live wire which
rings the bell. When your shoes press
against your corn it pushes its sharp
roots down upon sensitive nerve and
you get shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for
a quarter of an ounce of freezone.
This will cost very little but is suf-
ficient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. A few
drops applied directly upon tender,
aching corn stops the soreness in
stantly, and soon the corn shrivels up
so it lifts right out, root and all, with
out pain. This drug freezone is harm
less and never infames or even irri-
tates the surrounding skin.
