WORKS WONDERS
A Wonderful Compound-Cures Piles
Eczema, Skin Itching, Skin
Eruptions, Cuts and
Bruises.

Doan's Ointment is the best skin
treatment, and the cheapest, because so
little is required to cure. 1t cures piles
after years of torture. 1t cures obstl-
nate cases of eczema. It cures all skin
itching. It cures skin eruptions. 1t
heals cuts, bruises, scratches and abra-
sions without leaving a scar. 1t cures
permanently.
Jacob Heasong, farmer, living at the
corner of East Twenty-eighth street and
Kelly avenue, Portland, Oregon, says;
In recommending Doan s Ointment to
those who suffer from hemorrhoids L
can only repeat the statement L made
some three years ago. [ had suffered
from this trouble for some years, and
in hot weather it was great worry to
me. I could not sleep at night. Other
preparations having given me little or
no relief, finally began using Doan s
Ointment and it required only few
applications to bring soothing and heal
ing relief. The facts above stated are
as I told them just after my first trial
of the remedy. I think just as much
of the preparation today.
Doan's Ointment is splendid in all
diseases of the skin: Eczema, piles,
hives, insect bites, sores, chilblains, etc.
Tt is perfectly safe and very effective.
Very frequently two or three boxes
have made a complete cure of chronic
