YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati man tells how to dry
up q corn or callus so Il lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops Of freezone applied directly on q
tender. aching corn or callus. stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens SO 1t can be
lifted off, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posl-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as Il
is inexpensive and is said not to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house.-ady.
