Cause Of Eczema Explained

After years of debate medical au-
thorit:es are now agreed that Eczema
and other skin diseases are not
seated in the blood. but are caused
by myriads of microscopic animals
Enawing the flesh just below the
epidermis. T he patient is perfectly
healthy. it is only the skin that Is dis
eased.
Hence. scientists are now agreed
that YOU must cure the skin through
the skin The medicine must be in
LIQUID form in order to penetrate
properly. And we can say with con-
fidcncc that we have the true remedy
for Eczema in our store.
The instant you wash with TINS
soothing liquid you will find the itch
relieved We positively assure you
