WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores Only Liquid Can

They Clog the Pores Only Liquid Can
Reach the Inner Skin.
Since the old.fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood has
been given up by scientists, smany
different saves have been tried for
skin diseases But IL has been found
that these salves only clog the pores
and can not penetrate to the inner skin
below the epidermis where the eczema
germs are lodged.
Thistle quality Of pentrating
probably explains the tremendous sue
cess Of the only standard liquid eczema

ten years Of cure after cure, the world =
leading skin specialists have accepted
this as the true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate TO re-

those who have never tried the pre-.
scription, we arranged with the d. d..
