RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA
No More Dosing the Stomach-Curt
the Skin Through the Skin.

When you have u scratch on your
hand you wash 1t out and cleanse It
and then the skin cures itself. You
do not take blood medicine to cure
a festered wound.
The best skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to cure the
skin is through the skin.
The fact that eczema is a skin dis
ease and not a blood disease iS ev-
ident from statistics which show that
nearly all eczema sufferers are per-
fectlY healthy in all other ways eH-,
cept as to their skin. 1t the eczema
patients were really suffering from
an Inward malady, the entire body
and not only the skin would be dis
eased You can prove Immediately
the relief OF true skin cure by using
oil of winterEreen as compounded in
d. D. D. Prescription.
This liquid attacks the disease
germs, numbiEE them while building
up the healthy tissue of the skin. We
have now handled this meritorfous
and thoroughly scientific remedy for
so long and have seen it's reliable re-
suits SO many times that we freely
express our confidence.
