The Most Patient People Must show
Annoyance at Times.


Nothing spoils good disposition
quicker. Nothing taxes a mans pa
tience like any itchiness of the skin.
Itching piles almost drive you crazy.
All day ii makes you miserable. All
night IL keeps yon awake. Itch. Itch.
Itch. With no relief. Just the same
with eczema. Can hardly keep from
scratching it. You would do so, but
you know it makes you worse. Such
miseries are daily decreasing. People
are learning they can be cured. Learn
ing the merits of Doan's Ointment.
Plenty of proof that Doan's Ointment
will cure piles, eczema, or any itchiness
of the skin. Read the testimonial of a
Battle Creek citizen:
Mr.. A. G.. Ayers, Book Binder, of 1877
West Main street, Battle Creek, saws:
my hands became so sore from eczema
that it was with difficulty could bend
my fingers. The skin cracked open,
large scabs formed, and in addition to
the spots being tender they itched in
tolerably. L tried everything / could
hear about or get hold of to stop the
trouble, but / was unable to do so
until | procured Doan's Ointment. /
had heard it spoken about by several
people, but as / thought it would act
like all the other preparations which /
tried l waited some time until l was
compelled from the condition of my
hands to do something. Doan's Oint-
ment cured me. Up to date, and this
is some months after l stopped the
treatment, l have had no indication of
any return"
