.BABY'S ITCHING BURNING ECZEMA
Almost Drove Him into ConvuIsions His Head and Face Mass of Terrible Humor-Suffering was
 DreadfuI-Is Permanently Cured.
DOCTOR PRESCRIBED
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

"When my son was only about year old eczema began to break out on his face. It kept getting worse and we called in doctor whose medicine only seemed to make it worse, until his head and face were a solid, raw sore. It was awful. He suffered dreadfully, and screamed until we thought he would go into convulsions, it would itch and burn SO. We became so dissatisfied that we called in another doctor. He pre- scribed the Cuticura Remedies. The baby commenced to get better right away, although by this time the disease had good start. I don't think we used more than three bottles of the Cuticura Resolvent, together with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. It was perhaps several months before all traces of the eczema were gone, the last being behind the ears, but the Cuticura Remedies cured him com pletely, and he had the prettiest head of curly hair grow after his head com menced to get better. He is now not quite twenty-four, and he has been cured permanently.
 My face is very tender and Cuticura Soap is about the only soap can use without irritating the skin. Mrs. l.. A. Fox, 1879 So. Washington Ave-, Denver, Colo, Dec. 26, 1907, and Jan. 6, 19O8."
