A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET

-Four years ago suffered severely
with a terrible eczema, being mass
of sores from head to feet and for SIX
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time I suffered continual tor
ture from itching and burning. After
being given up by my doctor was adj
vised to try Cuticura Remedies. After
the first bath with Cuticura Soap and
application of Cuticura Ointment en-
joyed the first good sleep during my
entire illness. I also used Cuticura
Resolvent and the treatment was con-
tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time I was able to be
about the house. entirely cured. and
have felt no ill effects since. I would
advise any person suffering from any
form of skin trouble to try the Cutf-
cura Remedies as know what they
did for me. Mrs. Edward Nenning,
