FEW DROPS AND
CORN LIFTS OUT
Says there is no excuse for

viting lockjaw.

Sore eorns, hard corns, soft
corns or any kind of a corn can
harmlessly be lifted right out
with the fingers If you will apply
directly upon the corn a few
drops of freezone, says Cincin-
natl authority.
1t is claimed that at small cost
one can get quarter of an ounce
Of freezone at any drug store,
which is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus with
out pain or soreness or the dan
ger of infection.
This simple drug. while sticky,
dries the moment it is applied
and does not inflame or even irri-
tate the surrounding tissue.
This announcement will inter-
est many women here, for it is
said that the present high-heel
footwear is putting corns on prac-
tically every woman's feet.
