The grandest testimonial that can be
offered Cuticura remedies is their world
wide sale, due to the personal recommen-
dafions Of those who have used them. It
is difficult to realize the mighty growth
Of the business done under this name.
From a small beginning in the simplest
form, against prejudice and opposition,
against mOneyed hosts, countless rivals
and trade Indifference, Cuticura rene
dies have become the greatest curatives
Of their time, and, in fact, of all time,
for nowhere in the history Of medicine
is to be found another approaching them
in popularity and sale. In every cline
and with every people they have met
with the same reception. The confines
of the earth are the only limits to their
growth. They have conquered the
world. By rail and sail, by caravan, by
pack and saddle, and on the backs of
human beings, they have made their
way to the farthermost parts of the
earth.
There seems to be something about Gu
ticura remedies which invites the conf
dence of mankind. National peculiari- |
ties, European, Eastern and Asiatic
teachings and traditions seem to have
no adverse influence upon them. Hence,
they are 10 be found in every part Of
the world, and the sight Of them in the
stores, bazaars and native shops has in |
spired the American traveller in foreign
lands with patriotic emotions second |
only to those inspired by the contempla-
tion Of his country's flag.
While it is true that prosperity to an
degree has blessed those con-
nected with the manufacture of the Gu |
tioura remedies, yet 1t is equally true
that full value has been given the public |
in return. That this latter statement is
true, no one can doubt who studies the
indisputable record of their worldwide
popularity, as evidenced by a sale great
er than that of all other blood and skin |
remedies combined.
To the test of popular judgment all
things mundane must finally come. The
world has rendered its verdict in favor
