ITCH
Athlete's Foot
According to the Govern-
ment Health Bulletin No. E-29, at least 50% of the
11
adult population of the United States are being attacked by the disease known as Athlete's Foot
Usually the disease starts between the toes. "Ittle watery blisters form, and the skin cracks and peein. After a while, the Itching becomes latense, and you feel as though you would like to scratch off all Pho_skin.
BEWARE OF IT SPREADING 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.
Get rid of this discase na 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 lesta,
Most people who have Athlete's Foot have tried all kinds of remedies to cure it without success. Ordinary germicides, anti- septics, salve or ointments seldom do any good."
HERE'S HOW TO TREAT IT
The germ that causes the disease is known as Tinen Trichophy- ton. It burles 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'n 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 H. F. night and morning until your feet are well. Usually this fakes from three to ten days, although in severs eases it may tako longer or in mild ennes 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 Suecesi.
