CAL0MEL DYNA!WITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Says Women Pay too Much Heed to
Their Face Instead of
Their Corns.

Watch your step! A brisk, lively
step is what charms more than love-
~ skin, but your high heels have
caused cOrns and you limp little.
That's bad, girls, and you know it.
Corns destroy beauty and grace, be-
sides corns are very easy to remove.
Rid your feet of every corn by
asking at any drug store for a quar-
ter of an ounce Of freezone. This
will cost little but is sufficient to re-
move every hard or soft corn or cal
lus from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly upon
a tender, touchy corn relieves the
soreness and soon the entire corn,
root and all, lifts right out without
pain.
This freezone is a gummy sub
stance which dries instantly and sim
ply shrivels up the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the sur
rounding skin.
Women must keep in mind that
cornless feet create a youthful step
which enhances her attractiveness.-
