Eczema from Childhood.

When an infant my body broke out all
over with an eruption or rash, which be-
came more aggravated as I grew older.
From early childhood until was grown
my family spent a fortune trying to cure
me of the disease. Every noted physi-
clan in our section was tried or consulted.
When 1 came of age I visited Hot
Springs, Ark, and was treated there by
the best medical men, butw not bene-
flied. After that, under the advice of a
noted specialist, | tried the celebrated
Clifton Springs, New York, without any
good results. When all things had failed
l determined to try S. S. S., and in four
months Was entirely cured. The terrible
Eczema was all gone, not a sign left {;
my general health built up, and [ have
never had any return of the disease. I
