DOCTOR USED D. D. D. IN HIS PRAC.
TlCE.
Eminent Physician Says This Great Ii.
quid Prescription Is Certain
Cure for Eczema.

Still another Eczema specialist comes
forward in enthusiastic praise of ID. ID.
D. Prescription, the wonderful external
remedy which cures Eczema and other
similar diseases like magic. He is DR..
G. B. Holmes, of Silver City, Miss, and
in summing up his impressions OF the
startling cures d. D. d. has effected, he
saws:
III have been using your d. d. d. for
four years with gratifying results. 'Tis
AS NEAR A SPECIFIC FOR HER
PES, ECZEMA, PSORIASIS, ETC,
AS Is QUININE FOR MALARIA"
DR.. Holmes is one of hundreds of
physicians who use d. d. ID. in their
daily practice. The ID. d. ID. company
allows physicians to use their remedy
with the understanding that they tell
their patients what it was that cured
them when the terrible itch has been
wiped out, the skin healed and the raw
wound covered over with soft white
skin. ID. D. d. is not nasty paste to
smear the skin and clothing, but 1t Is a
clear liquid. It is advisable to use D.
ID. d. soap in connection with d. d. d.
Prescription.
Is any further proof of the curative
powers of d. D. D. Prescription neces-
sary? That remedy is sold at Keir &
Cass' drug store, Hood River, Oregon.
Come in and let us show you convin-
cling proof that d. d. d. will cure your
skin disease. Even if you have not de-
cded to use d. d. d. remedy come in
and explain your case anyway.
