How to Treat It

ACCORDING to the Government Health Bulletin 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.

There are many other names given to this disease, but you can easily tell if you have it.

-

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.

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 worse and worse.

It has been said that this disease originated in the trenches, so some people call it Trench Foot. Whatever name 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 gorm that causes the disease is known as Tinea Trichophyton. It burles itself deen in the tissues of the skin and is very hard 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 peels

off the infected skin and works its way deep into the tissue of the skin where the germ breeds.

As soon as you apply H. F: you will find that the itching is immediately relieved. You should paint the infected parts with H. 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 rollef, especially if you are one of those who have tried for years to get rid of Athlete's Foot without success.

Copy of Report of Drs. Courel and Hauser after they had submilled H. F. to a thorough examination,

Note that by actual laboralory test H. F. kills the Itch germ in less than 15 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 remarkable H. F. is.

GOOD WHISKY

what do you mean?

-asks Johnnie Walker

The first thing to remember about good whisky is that it should be fully matured. Every one of the whiskies used in blending Johnnie Walker has developed its fine natural character through long years of maturing in the wood.

Expert blending ensures smooth- ness and roundness in whisky. The blenders of Johnnie Walker take special care to keep a perfect propor- tion between the many whiskies at their disposal. So one may say that Johnnie Walker is blended from good whiskies to make a better whisky.

Always ask for Johnnie Walker by
