HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA.
Oil Of Wintergreen, Thymol, GIycerine
Etc. Used as Simple Wash.

1t really seems strange that so many
people suffer year in and year out
with eczema. when it is now no longer
a secret that oil of wintergreen mixed
with thymol glycerne. etc. makes a
wash that is bound to cure.
Old. obstinate cases. it is trH6s gan
not be cured in few days. butt there
is absolutely no sufferer from eczema
who ever used this simple wash and
did not find immediately 1T
wonderfully soothing, calm, cool
sensation that comes when the itch
is taken away. Instantly upon apply
ing few drops of the wash the
remedy takes effect. the itch is
allayed. There is no need OF expert
ment-the patient knows at once.
Instead Of trying to compound the
oil of wintergreen. thymol. glycerine.
etc. in the right proportions ourselves
we are using a prescription which is
universally found the most effective.
1t is known as the d. d. n. Prescrip-
ton. or Oil of Wintergreen Compound.
1t is made by the ID. d. D. Co. Of
Chicago. and our long experience with
this remedy has given us great conf
dence in its merits.
