"Gets-It"
Ends All
Corns
Just as Good for Calluses. Money
Back If It Fails.
Thirty seconds after you toach the corn
with this liquid corn remover the jab
bins, stabbing- pain of it stops, for ill time.
Simple a A, B, C.
No corn, hard or soft, I too old or too
deeply rooted to resist "Gets-lt." Im
mediately it dries and shrivels, the edges
loosen from the true llesh and soon you
can peel it right off with your fingers as
painlessly as you trim your nails.
Don't coddle corn pests. Don't nurse
and pamper them. Don't cut snd trim
them. REMOVE them with "GETS-IT."

RUG BEATING
BY HAND IS
OUT OF DATE
Dresher Rug Cleaning Meth
od Replaces Thousands of
Pairs of Inefficient,
Highly Blistered
' Hands.
Ifc'hy force poor Friend Husband
to beat the rugs?
He foams, frets, uses up all sur
plus energies, blisters his hands
and the rug is dirtier than ever.
" Dresher Brothers, the immenae
Dry Cleaners and Dyer3 at 22U
2217 .Farnam street, Omaha, will
unfold to you a secret.
Here's the secret: Rus simrly
cannot be cleaned when hubby
hangs them upon the line and beats
and beats and beats. Even though
the poor fellow beats, brushes,
conbs and coddles the rugs all dy,
they are not cleaned at all. - The
inside of the rug3 will still contain
oodles of dirt.
Now here's proot: After hubby
has beaten the rugs until he is rwidy
to drop, just take one of the rugs
and rip it apart at one of ihe aeams
(it may again be sewed together
"all right) then send one of the
parts of the rug to Dresners to bt
REALLY cleaned. When Dresners
send back the part they cleaned,
compare it with the part that Hubby
BEAT. The half that Dresner
cleaned will be as bright, as clem,
and colorful as a new rug; from
one of the rug shops; ,tho irerms
will have been exterminated to the
last member of the bug tribe.
And then look at the part that
hubby beat; it will look like wcil,
you know how to express it.
Xow's a good time to have the
rugs cleaned. Better phone Tyier
0345 and have a Dresher man come
out. South Siders should phone
"South 0050," or leave the rus at
the plant, 2211-2217 Farnam street,
at Dresher the Tailors, 1515 Far
nam street, or at one of the Dresher
Branches, Twenty-fourth and L
streets. South Side, Burjess-Nash
