Do you know that millions of people
who use Blue-jay keep entirely free from
corns?
If a corn appears it is ended by a touch.
A Blue-jay plaster or a drop of liquid
Blue-jay is applied.
The corn pain stops. Soon the whole
corn loosens and comes.out.
Themethod is scientific. Itisgentle.easy,
aure. Old-time harsh treatments are sup
planted by it with everyone who knows it.
It is made by a world-famed laboratory,
which every physician respects.
It is now applied to some 20 million
corns a year. You can see that com
troubles are fast disappearing.
Then why pare corns and keep them?
Why use methods which are out-of-date?
