cided In the District Court Mt Buffalo,
Wyoming, and will be taken to tho

About four years ago | was afiiict'

which produced n severe itching irri-

deal OF annoyance and suffering. to
such, an extent that | was forced TO
call in two OF the leading physicians
OF my town. After a thorough exami-
nation OF the dreaded complaint they
announced 1t to be skin eczema in Its
worst form. They treated me for the
same for the length OF one year. but
the treatment did me no good. Fin
ally my husband purchased set OF
the cuticura Remedies. and after
using the contents OF the first bottle
OF Cuticura Resolvcnt In connection
with the Cuiicura Soap and Ointment.
the breaking out entirely stopped. I
continued the use of the Cuticura
Remedies for six months. and after
that every splotch was entirely gone
and the affected parts were left rs
