ECZEMA CURED IN SIMPLE WAY,

the skin Through the Skin.

When you have a scratch on your
hand you wash II out and cleanse II
aud then the skin cures itself.
The best skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to cure the
skin is through the skin. For statis-
tics show that nearly all eczema suf-
ferers are perfectly healthy in all 9TH
err ways except as to their skin. And
II the eczema patients were really
suffering, from an internal malady
the entire body and not only the skin
would be diseased.
You can prove Immediately the re-
lief of a true skin cure by using oil
OF wintergreen as compounded In d

the disease germs. while toning up the
healthy part of the skin.
We have now handled this merltor-

results so many times that we freely
