LIFT YOUR C0RNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn
or callus so 1t lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
TO use drug called freezone, which
the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it Is APP
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without infaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn't any freezone he can get
it at any Wholesale drug house for you,

Kidney & Co.
(BY DIR. J. II. wATsoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in har-
mony. They're companions, the skin
being the second partner. If we are
anxious to keep well and preserve the
vitality of the kidneys and, also, free the
blood from noxious elements, we must
pay special attention to good action of
the skin and to see that the kidneys are
flushed so as to eliminate the poisons
from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in bath,
at least once week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good condition. Flush
the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure
water with meals and between meals.
Occasionally obtain at the nearest drug
store Anurie, which will help flush the
kidneys and the intestines. You will find
that Anuric is many times more active
than ithia and that it dissolyes uric
ecid as bot water does sugar.

The farmer, if he only knew
it, is a little nearer the king
dom of heaven than anyone on
earth. He is certain of three
square meals a day and is the
only man who can fence him
self in and live in spite 70 the
rest of mankind. A few cattle
and sheep and fowls provide
him with food and clothing
while his fields yield him flour
and a source of revenue. Sc
generous are these provisions
and so common, that hardly one
farmer in ten makes any ac-
count of them, although the or
binary business man thinks he
has done we'll when he reaches
the end of the year and finds
that he has done a little more
than make ends meet.
