Three" Cuticura Soap, Cutioura Oint- ment, and Cuticura Pills, costing me one-haf of one visit to my physician. After using as directed, with plenty of hot water, I can truthfully state that I found instant relief. When I had used three boxes of Cuticura 0int- ment and two cakes of Cuticura Soap I found my skin as soft and fine as a baby's. My circle of friends is very large, and I am persuading them to use Cuticura Soap and give up the kinds they were using. I find no trouble as my case has proven to them that if Cuticura Ointment is good, Cuticura Soap must be likewise.
 !" hesitate to send you the enclosed picture as it has been lying around in my desk for two years and is very soiled. At the time it was taken my ears were scaly and you will find some remnants of Cuticura 0int- ment on it, and, to me, it is very pre- cious, as 1 can now say when looking at it that Cuticura is blessing and that is why I have kept it even though it was soiled.
