GIRLS, ITS YOUR
STEP THAT ATTRACTS.

Says. Women Pay TOO Much Heed 30
Their Face Instead OF Their Corng.
Watch your stepI A brisk, lively
step, is what charms moro than q
lovely skin, but yout high heels hays
caused corns and you limp a little.
That's bad, girls, and you know 1t.
Corns destroy beauty and grace, be-
sides corns are very ensy to remove.
Rid your feet Of every corn by ask
ing ut any drug store for n quarter
OF an ounce OF freeZone. This will
cost little but is sufficient to remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
ones feet.
Women must keep in mind that
corniess feet create u youthful step
which enhances her attractiyeness.
This frcezone is gummy sub
stance, which dries instantly and sim
ply shrvels up the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the sur
ruunding skin.
A few drops applied directly upon
Il tender, touchy corn relieves the sore
ness and soon the tnfre corn, root and
all, lifts right out without pain.
