Lift Your Corns
Off With Fingers
Tells How To Loosen a Tender Corn OF
Callous SO it Lifts Out Without Pain.

You reckless men and women who are pes
tered with corns and who have at least once Q
week invited an awful death from lockjaw or
blood poison are now told by Cincinnati au-
thority to use drug called freezone. which
the moment a few drops are applied to any
corn or callous the soreness is relieved and
soon the entire corn or callOus, root and all.
lifts off with the fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is spilled.
and simply shrivels the corn or callous without
infiaminR or irritating the surrounding tissue
or skin, A small bottle Of freezone will cost
very little at any Of the drug stores. but will
positively rid ones feet Of every hard or soft
corn or hardened callous. II your druggist
hasn't any freezone he can get 1t at any whole-
sale drug house for you.
