RUNNING SORES
COVERED LIMBS
Little Girls Obstinate Case Of
Eczema - instantaneous Relief
By Cuticura Little Boys Hands
and Arms Also Were a Mass
Of Torturing Sores - Grateful
Mother Says:
"CUTICURA REMEDIES
A HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

In reply to your letter write YOU
my experience, and you are privileged
20 use It as you see TT. Last year,
after having my little girl treated by a
very prominent physician for an obsti-
nate case of eczema, l resOrted to the
Cuucura Remedies, and was so well
pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the
Physlcian's prescription and relied en-
tlrely on the Cuticura Soap. Cuticura
Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When
We commenced with the Cuticura Rem
edies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six weeks
we had her completely well, and there
has been no recurrence Of the trouble.
In July Of this year a little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and arms
with poison oak, and in twenty-fouY
hours his hands and arms we're a mass
OF torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
anointed them with the Cuticura ONT
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks his
hands and arms healed up; so we have
lots Of cause for feeling grateful for the
Cuticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are q valuable
household standby, living as we do
twelve miles from q doctor, and where
It costs from twenty to twenty-five dol
