LIKE ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells Why a-csD~is So Painful and
Says Cutting Makes.
Them Grow.

Press an electric button and YOU
form a contact with live wire which
rings the bell When your shoes press
against your corn it pushes its sharp
roots down upon a sensitive nerve and
you get a shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn OF
callus from ones feet. A few drops
applied directly upon a tender, aching
corn stops the soreness instantly, and
soon the corn shrivels up so It lifts
right out, root and all, without pain
This drug is harmless and never in
flames or even irritates the surround
ing tissue or skin.-Ady.
