A~CCRAVATING ECZEMA.
Troubled Badly for Several Years with
Eczema on Limbs-Another Won
derful Cure by Cuticura.

"For several years l was troubled bad.
~ with an eczema on my limbs and wrists.
Physicians in several towns had pre-
scribed for me without giving me any re-
suits. l had often used Cuticura ONT
ment and received relief temporarily. In
the spring of 1904 l took the Cuticura Re-
solvent Pills and used the Cuticura ONT
ment for about five weeks, and at the
end of that time there was not a blotch
on me anywhere. This spring I took a
few walls of the Cuticura Resolvent Pills
as a precautionary measure, and will con-
tinue to do SO every spring simply as a
spring tonic, as they are so easy to carry
with you, and they certainly fix your
blood for the ensuing year. 1 now use
only Cuticura Soap. The Cuticura ONT
emnt and Pills certainly cured me of an
aggravated case of eczema. st. Clair Nc

No matter how dark the world may
