How to take Corns Out so they never come back. "You simply use saltrated water, which does the trick for us soldiers every, time, and also cures bunions, aching, tenderness, blisters, chil- blains, or even rheumatic and gouty pains "—says — Sergt. C. S, TURNER, R.A.M.C. Cutting the top of a corn off with a razor or burning it off with caustic lotions, plasters, etc., doesn't do any good. The root just sprouts right up again, and soon your corn has a brand new top on it, bigger than ever. The top is cnly dead skin anyway. The business end of a corn is the little pointed part, or core, that extends down into the toe. That is what hurts when it presser, on sensitive nerves, and it is the part you have to get out. Cutting the top off an aching tooth wouldn't stop the ache. Same way with a corn. Don't worry about the top. Get the root out permanently by using a good big handful of the ordinary refined Rondel bath salt rate-? (you can get a half- pound at slight cost from any chemist) dissolve in a gallon or so of hot water. Just soak your feet in this for fifteen or twenty minutes then take hold of the corn with your fingers and out she'll come, root anl all, like the hull comes out of. a strawberry. Only a little hole or depres- sion is left in the toe. and that eoon closes, .so there is nothing left in there to sprout a new corn again. It doesn't affect the surrounding flesh at all, but soon softens the whole of tho, ecrn. No burning or soreness, no pain, no danger, no trouble and no daytS of waiting to see whether that old corn is going to leave for good or oome back to stay with you a while longer. Soften callouses the same way, then scrap*- off, and I don't dare tell you how quick this saltrates medicated water will al- ways drive aches, chafes, blisters, etc., away, and even cure rheumatic or gouty pains. It would sound too good to he true, but thousands of soldiers can tell what wonderful stuff saltrated water i-s. C. S. T. i I ii Ki,m g You elmply add watter M I E?
