Lift Out Your Corns.
No hurnhug! Any corn whether hard
oft or between the toes will loosen right i
up and lift out without a particle of pain
»r soreness.
I his drug is called freezone and is a
compound nt ether discovered l»y a Cincin-
nati man.
Ask at any drug store for a smalt bot-
tle of fretZo.’:. „ which will cost but a tritle
but i> sulTuiiet to rid one’s leet of every
corn or callus.
But a few drops directly upon any ten-
der aching corn or callus. Instantly the
soreness disappears and shortly the corn or
cailiis will loosen and can In* lifted olT with
the lingers.
This drugs free zone doesn’t eat out the
corns or calluses but shrivels them with-
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
•lust think! No pain at all; no sore-
