Laugh When People
Step On Your Feet
Try this yourself then pass
Il 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 freezonc when applied
to tender, aching corn stops soreness
at once, and soon the corn dries up
and lifts right out without pain.
He says freezone is an ether com
pound which dries Immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter
of an ounce Of freezone will cost very
little at any drug store, but is suffi-
Gent to remove every hard or soft corn
or callus from ones feet. Millions Of
American women will welcome this an
nouncement since the Inauguration Of
the high hells.-Adv.
