Instant RELIEF OF
ITCHING HUMOR
Limbs Below the Knees Were Raw
Feet Too Swollen to Get Shoes
On Sleep Completely Broken
byIntense itching and Burning
Well in Two Days and Says That
CUTICURA is AMONG
HIS HOUSEHOLD GODS

aGod bless the man who first COM
rornded Cuticura. Some two months
zoo I had a humor break out on my
ii7nbs below my knees. They came to
iooE ike raw beefsteak. all red, and no
one knows how they itched and burned.
They we're so swollen that l had to
snlit nv drawers open to get them on
and could not get my shoes on for
week or more. / used five or six diff
ferent remedies and got no help, only
when applying them the burning was
worse and the itching less. One morning
remembered that had a bit of Cuti-
c1ra and tried it. From the moment
II touched me the itching was gone and
have not felt a bit of it since. The
swelling went down and in two days had
nv shoes on and was about as usual.
I only wish l had used the Cuticura
Remedies in the first of my troubles.
They would have saved me two or
three weeks Of intense suffering. Dur
ing that time I did not sleep an hour at
a time. but was up applying such
remedies as I had. Henceforth the
Cnticura Remedies will be among my
household gods, rest assured. George
