Style decrees that women wear high-heel footwear, which buckles up the toes, producing painful, corns; then many women cut at these pests, which is a most dangerous proceeding, because one is simply inviting infection or an awful death from lockjaw. For little cost there can be obtained from any pharmacy a harmless drug called freezone.

A quarter ounce of this is sufficient to remove every soft or hard corn or callus from one's feet. A few drops applied directly upon, a tender, aching corn relieves the soreness at once and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted right out without pain. It is a sticky substance which dries in a. moment and i shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin. Here is a good thing ladies, so pass it along to your sisters in distress, Advertfcsemen-ts- CAN WOMEN -TrteS tAvYS WHCM 3oL ot spread YoUSElf oLn folks vik 5Jg "THa A PORT AUSTIN.
