How To Treat It
CCORDING to the Government Henith Bulletin No. E 28, at least 50% of the adult population of he United States are being attacked by the discase known as Athi te's Foot.

There are many other names given to this dikesan, but you can casily tall if you have it.
Little "watery Usually the disease starts between the toes. blisters form and the skin cracks and peels. After a while the itching becomes jutense and you feel as though you would like to scratch off all the skin.
Often the disease travels all over the bottom of the feet. The soles of your feet become red and swollen. The skin also cracks and peels, and the itching becomes urse and worse.
It has been said that this disease originated in the trenches, so some people call it Trench Fot. Whatever same you give it, however, the thing to do is to get rid of it as quickly as possible, because it is very contagious and it may go to your hands or even to the under arm or crotch of legs.
Most people who have Athlete's Foot have tried all kinds of remedies to cure it without success. Ordinary germicides, antiseptics, or ointments seldom do any good.
The germ that causes the disease is known as Tinea Trichophyton. It baries itself deep in the tissues of the skin d is very hart.to kill. A test made shows that it takes 15 minutes of boiling to kill the germ,
so you can see why the ordinary remedies are unsuccessful.
H. F. was developed solely for the purpose of treating Athlete's Foot. It is a liquid that penetrates and dries quickly. You just paint the affected parts. It peela off the infected skin and works its way deep into the tissue of the skin where the gern breeds.
As soon as you apyly H. F. you will find that the itching is immediately relieved You should paint the infected parts with HF. night and morning until your feet are well. Usually this takes from three to ten days, although in sovere cases it may take longer or in mild cases less time.
H. F. will leave the skin soft and smooth. You will marvel at the quick way it brings you relief, especially if you are one of those who have tried for years to set rid of Athlete's Foot without success.

Note that by actual lahoratory test H. F. killa the Itch germ in less than 16 seconds. Remember that the Government states in Health Bulletin E 28 that it takes 15 minutes of boiling to kill this germ. You can appreciate therefore how ren arkable H. F.is...
