Why salves Fail to Cure Eczema.

Scientists are now agreed that the

the pores. .

BABY's SKIN TORTURE

when our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradually
grew worse. We called In a doctor.
He said it was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse His face, head
and hands were a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what 1t was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept US awake all
hours of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
Finally got a set of the Cuticura
Remedies and I am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until he
was cured. We have waited a year
and a half to see if it would return
but it never has and to-day his skin
is clear and fair as 1t possibly could
be. hope Cuticura may save some
one else's little ones suffering and
also their pocket-books. John Leason,
