Ny mother has been q victim to ulcers from

these terrible sores have existed at one time on
the limb affected. Excruciating pain and intense
suffering were endured, with ali sorts of remedies
on trial and numberless physicians calls and
prescriptions applied, but all practically with
but little benefit. However, at last the remedial
agent was found in CUTIcURA (ointment), which
surely proved its weight in gold alleviating pain
and causing healing processes to commence and
o cure speedily effected. She has, also, used
CUTIcURA with marked benefit in erysipelas

also, has established record only SIS the best

having proved itself most excellent and valu-
able auxiliary to the CUTICURA (ointment).
