Athlete's Foot

"ן

According to the Govera

ment Health Bulletin No.

E-98, 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 starta between the toes Little watery b'isters form, and the skin cracks wnd 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 discase, travels all over the bottom of the feet. The soles of your feet become red and wollen. The skin also cracks and pools, and the itching becomes worse and worse..

Get rid of this danse 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 the legs.

Most people who have Athlete's Foot have tried all kinds of retrodies to cure it without success. Ordinary germicides, anti- septica, salva or ointinents seldom do any good.

HERE'S HOW TO TREAT IT

The germ that causes the disenas is known as Tinea Trichopby ton. It buries itself deep in the tissues of the skin and is very hard to kill. A test made shows it takes 15 minutes of boiling to kill the germ; so you can see why 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 peels off the tissue of the skin where the germ breeds.

ITCHING STOPS IMMEDIATELY

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 langer or in mild cases less time.

H. F. will leave the skin soft and amooth 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
