BOTH CHILDREN CURED
 BY FAMOUS REMEDIES

For several years my husband was 6 missionary in the Southwest, and we were living on the edge of the desert at an elevation of nearly five thousand feet. Every one in that high and dry atmosphere has more or less trouble with dandruff and my daughters scalp became so encrusted with it that was alarmed for fear she would lose all her hair, which was very heavy. After spending between five and six dollars for various remedies, in desperation 1 bought a cake of Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura Ointment. After rub- ping the Cuticura Ointment thoroughly into the roots of the hair, ] gently combed the crust of dandrufT free from the scalp, and then gave her head thorough shampoo with the Cuticura Soap. This left the scalp beautifully clean and free from dandruff and after Cuticura Ointment, this time sparingly, into the roots, and l am happy to say that the Cuticura Remedies were a complete success. My troubles with dandruff were over, although for long time afterward l used the Clltioura Ointment as at first, after sharnpooing, which kept the scalp and roots of the hair moist l have used successfully the Cuticura Remedies for so-called milk-crust" on baby's head, and have neverfound anything oequal them. You are at liberty to publish this letter, for I do sincerely believe that the Cuticura Remedies are blessing to mankind. Mrs. J. A. Darling, BIO Fifth St., Car thage, Ohio, Jan, 20, 1908"
