needs by taking in annually as
many as our shops can absorb"

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

If you are troubled with corns or
callouses, do not run the risk of blood
poison by pairing them. Statistics show
that many infections have occurred
from this seemingly innocent practice
of pairing corns.
Simply go to your druggist and get
some Mint, rub little on any pain
full corn or callous. The pain promptly
disappears and in a short time the
corn or callous will loosen and lift off
easily-root and all-leaving the sur
rounding skin in healthy normal con-
ditiOn.
This, together with the fact that Ice
Mint quickly eases such troubles as
sore, tired aching. pulled or burning
feet and makes them cool easy and
comfortable. is probably the reason for
the hearty endorsement given it by
druggists.
To rid ones feet of every hard corn.
soft corn, corn between The toes or
painful callouses in such a Pleasant and
safe way, makes it seem the height of
folly for anyone TO pare corn and
people are warned to stop it.-Ady.
