Every child born into the
world with an inherited or
early developed tendency to
torturing, dishguring humors
of the Skin and Scalp, becomes
an object Of the most tender
solicitude, not only because Of
its suffering, but because of the
dreadful fear that the disfigu-
ration is to be lifelong and mar
its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence it becomes the
duty of mothers of such affiict-
ed children to acquaint them
selves with the best, TIL c
purest, and most effective
treatment available, viz. !: the
CUTICURA Treatment, con-
sisting of warm baths with
CUTICURA Soap, and gentle
anointings with CCTICURA
