CUTICURA REMEDIES
 A PERFECT SUCCESS

"I wish to let you know that have used one set of Cuticura Remedies - one cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Outicura, but two vials of Cuticura Resolvent Pills - which cost me a dollar and twenty-five cents in all. For Q year have had what they call eczema. l had an itching all over my body, and when l would retire for the night it would keep me awake half the night, and the more would scratch, the more it would itch. I tried all kinds of rem- edies, but could get no relief. A friend of mine told me to try the Cuticura Remedies which I did, and am very glad l tried them, for was completely cured. If any of my friends should be troubled with the same disease, will cheerfully recommend the Cuticura Remedies, and if know any one who wants to know how I cured myself, shall be glad to tell them.
