SAVED BABY LYONS LIFE.
Awful Sight From That Dreadful Conn
plant, InfantiIc Eczema-Mothcr
Praises Cuticura Remedies.

"Our baby had that dreadful complaint,
Inlantile Eczema, which afflicted him for
several months, commencing at the top OF
his head and at last covering his whole
body. His suiierngs were untold and con-
slant misery, IN fact, there was nothing
we would not have done to have given him
relief. We finally procured a full set of
the Cuticura Remedies, and in about three
or four days he began TO show a brighter
spirit and really laughed for the first time
in a year In about ninety days he was
fully recovered. Praise for the Cuticura
Remedies has always been our greatest
pleasure, and there is nothing too good
that we could say in their favor, for they
certainly saved our babys life, for he
was the most awful sight that l ever be-
held prior TO the treatment of the Cuti-
cura Remedies Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1926
