FOR
CORNS.
CURE
FOR
CORNS.--Place
the
feet
for
half
an
hour,
two
or
three
nights
successively,
in
a
pretty
strong
solution
of
common
soda.
The
alkali
dissolves
the
indurated
cuticle,
and
the
corn
falls
out
spontaneously,
leaving
a
small
excavation,
which
soon
fills
up.
TO
REMOVE
CORNS.--Get
four
ounces
of
white
diachylon
plaster,
four
ounces
of
shoemaker's
wax,
and
sixty
drops
of
muriatic
acid
or
spirits
of
salt.
Boil
them
for
a
few
minutes
in
an
earthen
pipkin,
and
when
cold,
roll
the
mass
between
the
hands
and
apply
a
little
on
a
piece
of
white
leather.
A
CERTAIN
CURE
FOR
SOFT
CORNS.--Dip
a
piece
of
soft
linen
rag
in
turpentine,
and
wrap
it
round
the
toe
on
which
the
soft
corn
is,
night
and
morning;
in
a
few
days
the
corn
will
disappear;
but
the
relief
is
instantaneous.
