TWO CURES OF ECZEMA
Baby Had Severe Attack-Grandfathe
Suffered Torments with 1t
Owe Recovery to Cuticura.

in 1884 my grandson, a babe, had
an attack of eczema, and after trying
the doctors to the extent of heavy bills
and an increase of the disease and suf-
fering, | recommended Cuticura and
in few weeks the child was well. He
is to-day strong man and absolutely
free from the disease. A few years
ago l contracted eczema, and became
an intense sufferer. A whole winter
passed without once having on shoes,
nearly from the knees to the toes be-
ing covered with virulent sores. l tried
many doctors to no purpose. Then I
procured the Cuticura Remedies and
found immediate improvement and
final cure. NJ. w. LaRue, S45 Seventh St.
