TOR twenty years was severely afflicted with
4 TErrxR on the Face and Head: the disease
commenced when was seventeen years old, snd
continued until the Fall of 1896, varying in vio-
lence, but without ever disappearing. During most
Of the time, great part Of my face was covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with violent Itch
ing; my head sweled al times until II felt ss if il
would burst-the swelling was so great, that could
scarcely get my hat on. During the long period
that was afflicted with the disease, used great
many a, plcations, (among them several celebrated
preparatlons) as well as taking inward remedies,
including number ofhottles Of S,caim's Pdnacea,

tingushed ply scians Of this city, but without re-
celving much beneft, and despaired Of ever being
cured. In the fall Of 1885, the disease at the time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rose
Ointment. (prepared by Vaughan Il Davis.) In
few applications the violent itching ceased. the
swelling sbated. the eruption hogan to disappear,
and before had used jar the disease was entirely
cured. 1t has now been nearly year and a hall
since and there is not vestige Of the disease re-

by the disease. 1t is impossible for me to describe
in certificate the severity of the disease and my
suffering, but will be pleased TO give fuller nc.

using the Rose Ointment would have given hun
