Messrs. WEEKS & POTTER: Gentlemea,-To

my feelings, but it is the best word can use, for
feel it in every sense of the word. have been a
great sufferer with skin diseases for the last twelve
az years. My head and face being covered with
Sores could not rest with the burning heat and
itching of the parts affected, and was confined to my
house for weeks at time. My disease has been
called Eczema of most aggravated type, by many
physicians but doubt if ever fully understood by
any of them. 1t was more like a combination of
several skin humors. have spent much money
seeking a cure, and in 1867 went to Europe, and
consulted some of the best physicians in London.

Nov. about three months ago, Mr.. Meehan, a

me of his experience with it, and so perseyered

lodged within the skin, that as soon as l COM

and festered, until vast quantities had come out and
greatly intensified my sutferlngs for about two
weeks. But did not mind this, as felt that was
