HIGH HEELEO SHOES
PUT CORNS ON TOES
Tells women how to dry up a
corn so it lifts out
without pain.

Modern high-heeled footwear buckles
the toes and produces corns, and many
pf the thousands of hospital cases Of
infection and lockjaw are the result Of
woman's suicidal habit Of trying to cut
away these painful pests.
For little cost there can be obtained
at any pharmacy a quarter of an ounce
of drug called freezone, which is
sufficient to rid ones feet OF every hard
or soft corn or callus without the
slightest danger or inconvenience.
A few drops applied directly upon
the tender, aching corn stops the sore
ness and shortly the entire corn, root
and all, lifts right out 1t is a sticky
substance, which dries the moment it
is applied, and thousands of men and
women use it because tho corn shrivels
up and comes out without infaming
or even irritating the surrounding It's
sue or skin. Cut this out and try it il
your corns bother you.
