Yes! Lift A Corn
OFF Without Pain
Cincinnati Authority Tells How To
Dry Up A Corn Or Callus So 1t
Lifts Off With Fingers

You corn-pestered men and wom-
en- need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before,
says this Cincinnati authority, be-
cause a few drops of freezone applied
directly on tender, aching corn or
callus, stops soreness at once and
soon the corn or hardened callus loos-
ems so it can be lifted out, root and
all, without pain.
"A small bottle of freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
Ii your druggist hasn't any free
zone tell him to get a small bottle for
you from his wholesale drug house. 1t
is fine stuff and acts like a charm ev-
cry time. Ill

other kind, and that's the only kind
the l. J. turns out.

vision which would permit Col Roose-

finance committee will begin public
hearings on the bill and it is predicted
that final action will be delayed for
