CLIP THIS AND PIN
ON WIFE'S DRESSER
Cincinnati man tells how to shrivel
up corns or calluses so they
lift off with fingers.
Ouch IT!?!! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug called freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn or hardened cal
lus stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn or callus dries u(> and lifts right
off without pain.
lie says freezone dries immediately
and never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
one’s feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggist doesn't have freezone tell
Lira to order a small bottle for you.
