Athlete's Foot

According to the Govern.
Icent Health Balletin No.
E-28, at least 50% of the
adult population of the United States are being attacked by the disease known as Athlete's Foot.
Usually the disease starts between the toes Little watery blisters form, and the skin cracks and peels After a while, the itching becomes intense, and you feel as though you would like to "scratch off all the skin.
BEWARE OF IT SPREADING
Often the disease travels all over the nittom of the feel. The soles of your feet beconie red and swollen. The skin also cracks and peels, and the itching becomes worse and worse.
Det rid of this disease as quickly as possible because it is, very contagious and it may go to your hands or even to the nader arm or cratch of the legs.
Most people who have Athlete's Foot have tried all winds of remedies to cure it without success. Ordinary germicides, anti- septics, salve or ointinents seldom do any good.
HERE'S HOW TO TREAT IT
The germ that causes the disease is known as Tines Trichophy- ton. It buries itself deep in the tissues of the skin and is very hard to kill. A test made shows it takes 13 minutes of boiling to kill the germ; a you can see why ordinary remedies are unsuccessful. H. F. was developed solely for the purpose of treating Athlete's Foct it is a liquid that penetrates and dries quickly. "You just paint the affected parts. It peels off the tissue of the skin where the germ breeds.
FTCHING STOPS IMMEDIATELY
C
As soon as you apply H. F. you will find that the itching is immediately relieved. You should paint the infected parts with B. F. night and morning until your feet are well. Usually this takes from three to ten days, although in severe 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 get rid of Athlete's Foot without success.
