Last year. after having my little

1 resorted to the Cuticura Remedies,
and vas sc we'll pleased with the al
most instantaneous relief afforded that
we discarded the physicians prescrip-
tom and relied entirely OH the Euti-
cura Soap. Cuticura Ointment, and Cut
ticura Pills. When we commenced With
the Cuticuta Remedies her feet and
limbs were covered with running sores.
In about six weeks we had her com-
pletely we'll. and there has been no re-
currence OF the trouble.
.'In July of this year a little boy in
u family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak. and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were q

the Cuticura Remedies, and in about
three weeks his hands and arms healed
