Laugh When People
Step On Your Feet
Try this yourself then pass
It along to others.
Il works.!

Ouch ?!?! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
of drug called freezone when applied
to tender, aching corn or hardened
callus stops soreness at once, and soon
the corn or callus dries up and lifts
right off without pain.
He says freezone dries Immediately
and never inflames or even irritates
the surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the Inauguration of the high heels. II
your druggist doesn't have freezone
tell him to order small bottle for you.
