Quick Cure for POISON Oak.

A few months ago an eminent physician who had
tested the remarkable curative qualities o; PH0S-
PLATE SOAP for various skin diseases, expressed
his belief that it would be excellent remedy for
Poison Oak. II waSaocordingly tested for this pur
pose. boy had been so badly poisoned as to be
confined to his bed for week, and had his hands all
covered with sores when he began to use PHOS-
PLATE SOAP. Within twenty-four hours he was
greatly relieved, and in few days was entirely
cured of Poison Oak by the use of PHOSPHATE
SOAP.
Men and women, young and old, who wish to keep
the skin healthy, soft natural ard beautiful, should
avoid common soaps md buy nothing for toilet use
except PHOSPHATE SOAP. Ask your druggist
or grocer for it, and take nothing else.
