Hurah! HoW's This
Cincinnati authority says corne
dry up and lift out
with fingers.


Hospital records show that every
time you cut a corn you invite lock-
law or blood poison, which Is needless,
says a Cincinnati authority, who tells
you that a quarter ounce Of a drug
called freezone can be obtained at lit
tie cost from the drug store but is
suficient to rid ones feet Of every
hard or soft corn or callus.
You simply apply a few drops OF
freezone on a tender, aching corn, and
soreness is instantly relieved. Short
" the entire corn can be lifted out,
roots and ali, without pain.
This drug is sticky but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without infiaming or even irri-
tating the surrounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
win be glad to know of this.
