TEN Years OF
Scalp Eruption
Tiny Pinhead Pimples Filled and
Hurt Tremendously = Tried
Everything in Vain = His
Daughters Scalp Was Crusted
Both Found
SIMPLY SURPRISING
CURE ON Gy1lGWRA

1T is q great pleasure for me and consider
1t q duty to inform you what Cuticura has done
for me. About twelve years ago I contracted
an eruption Of the scalp consisting Of small
pimples, about the size Of q pinhead. which
flled after q few days with pus and which
hurt tremendously. l tried everything, but IN
vain. Finally, / washed my head with sulphur
and applied carbolic ointment. After few
days the plmples disappeared, only TO come
back again In a week. This I suffered for ten
years and then 1 advertisement In the
paper Of the wonderful cures by Cuticura.
bought a cake Of Cuticura Soap, q box OF Cuti-
cura Ointment and bottle Of Cuticura Pills and
after three weeks ! had used only half the Soap
and Ointment and my head was az clean as ever
before. After the drst application it was simply
surprising how 1t improved.
my daughter used Cuticura Soap aud Oint-
ment for scales the scalp and after having
used them three times her head was clear aud
the hair became soft and 6nc as silk. Since
then she uses nothing but Outicua Soap for
shampooing.
In consequence Of my having used Cutlcura
Soap for shampooing, noticed that my hands,
which almost always were cracked from handling
undressed wood. lime and stone, became white
and velvety. Formerly I used glycerine, but
one nights treatment with Cuticura Soap and
Ointment does more for my hands than a
weeks treatment with glycerine. I hone all
suffering people will at least try the Cnticura
Remedies. Herman Becker, Fifeld, Wis. Novem-
