Apply a few drops of this freezone upon a tender, aching corn or callus and instantly, yes, immediately, all soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose that you lift it out, root and all With the fingers. , Just think! Not one bit of rjain be fore applying freezone or afterwards, It doesn't even irritate the, surround ing skin.
