ANY CORN LIFTS OUT,

No foolIshnessI Lift your eorns
and calluses off with fingers
It's like maeIeg

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corn, can harmlessly be
lifted right out with the fingers If you
apply upon the corn few drops of
freezone, says Cincinnati authority
For little cost one can get a small
bottle Of freezone at any drug store
which will positively rid ones feet OF
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
1t is applied and does not even irri-
tate the surrounding skin while ap-
plying it or afterwards.
This announcement will interest
many Of our readers. If your druggist
hasn't any freezone tell him to surely
get small bottle for you from his
wholesale drug house.-adv.
