T Suffer Terribly With Corns Because of High Heels, lint W»y Care Now? - ’ Women wear high heels which buckle up their toes and they suffer terribly from corns. Women then proceed to trim these pests, seeking relief, but the\ hardly realize the terrible danger from infection, says a Cincinnati authority. Corns cap easly be lifted out with the fingers If you will get from any drug store a quarter of an ounce of a drug called freezone. This is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one’s feet. You simply apply a few drops di rectly upon the tender, aching corn or callous. The soreness is relieved at once and soon the entire-corn or callous, root and all, lifts out with out one particle of pain. TMs freezone is a sticky substance i*-’''"’! dries In a moment. It.jhst shrivels up the corn without inflam ing or even irritating the surround ing tissue or skin. Tell your wife about this. ****** * * *******- * ADAMS HI N * ******** * * ****** Adams Run.
