ITCHING SKIN? DOCTOR THE SKIN
People Drinking Medicine for the Blood
to Cure Eczema Waste Their
Time and Money.

When your face is dirty and grimy,
you don't drink water to cleanse IT.
You wash your face with water and
you keep your face clean by washing
II with water.
Eczema, psoriasis. salt rheum, bar
ber's itch and like skin Affections are
similar to dirt and CRIME in that they
are caused by parasitic germs upon the
skin. These diseases cannot be cured
by drinking medicine any more than
you can cleanse your face by drink
ing water. Cleanse the skin of these
germs by applying the remedy right
where the disease exists and the skin
becomes white and smooth again
Otto Negele sells simple oil of winter
green, properly compounded with other
soothing vegetable remedies in D. D.
D. Prescription, as positive specific
for killing the bacilli and germs in the
skin. This D. D. D. remedy is not a
sticky concoction or a smeary paste.
It is a liquid external wash, as easy
and simple to use as water 1t is ap-
piled right where the itch and sore is.
FUSED with D. D. D. Soap, 1t is bound
to cure. The first application brings
instant relief-you will know this the
minute you apply the remedy-and the
skin once cured. stays cured in nearly
all cases. Get rid of that itch right
now-today.
