Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone, the ether discovery of a Gin
cinnah man, which is said to loosen
any corn so it lifts out with the fin
gers.
Ask any pharmacy for quarter
ounce of freezone. which will cost very
little, but is said to be sufficient to rid
ones feet of every hard or soft corn
or cailus.
You apply just few drops on the
tender, aching corn and instantly the
soreness is relieved. and soon the corn
is so shriveled that it lifts out with
out pain. 1t is a sticky substance
which dries when applied and never
inflames or even irritates the adjoin-
inc tissue
This discovery will prevent thou
sands of deaths annually from lockjaw
and infection heretofore resulting
from the suicidal habit of cutting
corns.
