gW7TIGWRA REMEDIES
WORTH WEIGHT ON GOLD

81 cannot help expressing to you my most sim
cere thanks for the benefit which have derived
from the use Of Cuticura Remedies. They repre-
sent a perfect miracle and each set Is worth Its
weight in gold to suffering humanity. Ever since
the time / grew into manhood l have been suf-
fering from a dry eruption which at times ap-
peared very extensively, and at other times, but
to a limited degree, my body. l consulted a
number of medical men without result and last
January i was affected with terrible eruption on
my hands, scalp and face, which was SO bad that
l could not even leave the house, so finally re-
sorted to Cuticura.
I'm the morning after breakfast took table
spoonful OF Cuticura Resolvent, the same after
dinner and supper. Three times dag l washed
myself with Cuticura Soap. and three times a
week l took not bath with Cuticura Soap and
applied Cdticura Ointment to the parts that were
painful. So far my Cutcura Remedies represent
an outlay of only a few dollars and ] am COM
pletely restored to health. while formerly had
spent dollars upon dollars on doctors, remedies
and ointments without getting cured. Needless to
say, l am quite ready TO spend my last cent for
Cuticura Remedies. Henry E. Kamping, $50
