SOFTENS CORNS AND CALLOUSES LIKE WATER SOFTENS SOAP. "Refreshing to the feet as mountain air to iho lungs. Aches, swellings, soreness, tenderness, excessive perspiration, etc., soon had to go," says former sufferer from foot misery, who repeats a famous specialist's advice. AFTER caustic liquids, cutting, plasters, and other temporary expedients had produced great pain but no relief, I consulted a well-known epecialist. He explained that callouses and corns are simply hardened, partly dead skin formed by shoe pressure, clogged, pores, and poor circulation due to foot being the. farthest extremities to which the heiu'tmust pump blood. Such growths ate without nerves or blood vessels themselves, but they cause the . acute misery by pressing on and irritating'the extremely sensitive nerve tissues beneath. To refresh the feet, remove callouses and take c6rns out, roots and all, it is only necessary to rest them in hot saltratcd water. This has no effect whatever on tho structure of normal, healthy skin, but it immediately dissolves out the waxy substances from clogged pores, also the oil from hardened skin, and leaves the latter almost as soft as. a piece of water-soaked soap. In fact, I was told b- the specialist who prescribed saltrated water that it 3 action on corns and callouses is quite similar to the effect of water on a piece of soap. To prepare the saltrated water, which is both medicated and oxygenated, simply dissolve in about a gallon of water a handful of the refined Roudel Bath Saltratea, which is obtainable at little cost from any chemist, this being tho Teeristered name by which medical men and chiropodists prescribe the compound.
