Doctors and Medicines Were
Fruitless-Tries Cuticura and Is
Completely Cured
BY THREE BOXES OF
GW7TlGURA OINTMENT

"When I was about nine years old small sores
appeared on each Of my lower limbs. scratched
them with a brass pin and shortly afterward both
of those limbs became so that could scarcely
walk When I had been suffering for about
month the sores began to heal, but small scaly
eruptions appeared where the sores had been.
From that time onward l was troubled by such
severe itching that. until became accustomed to
it, would scratch the sores until the blood began
to flow. This would stop the itching for a few
days but scaly places would appear again and
the itching would accompany them. After suf-
fered about ten years made q renewed effort to
effect a cure The eruptions by this time had ap-
peared on every part Of my body except my face
and bands The best doctors In my native county
advised me to use arsenic in small doses and .
saIye. / then used to battle the sores in mix
ture which gave almost intolerable pain. In addt-
tion I used other remedies. such as iodine. sui
phur zine salves. IS Salve. - Ointment,
and in fact was continually giving some remedy
fair trial. never using less than or two boxes
or bottles. AL this was fruitless. Finally my
hair began to fall out and was rapidly becoming
bald used IS -, but 1t did no good. A
few months after, having used almost everything
else / thought would try Cuticura Ointment,
having previously ufed Cuticura Soap and being
pleased with it. After using three boxes 1 was
completely cured, and my hair restored, after
fourteen years Of suffering and an expenditure of
at least $50 to $50 in vainiy endeavoring to find
cure. / shall be glad to write to any one who
