IN DESPAIR UNTIL
CURED BY CUTICURA

just about two years ago, some form
81 humor appeared on my scalp. The
beginning was 9 slight itching but IL
grew steadily worse until, when combed
ends cf the comb-teeth would be wet
with blood. Most Of the time there was
an intolerable itching, in q painful,
burning way, very much as bad, raw
burn, II deep, will itch and smart when
hair was positive torture. Ny hair was
long and tangled terribly because Of the
blood and scabs. This continued grow
ing worse and over half my hair fell
out. was In despair, really afraid Of
becoming totally bald.
Sometimes the pain was SO great
that, when partially awake, ! would
scratch the worst places SO that my fin
ger-tips would be bloody. could not
time, that awful singing pain would
commence and then would wake up
nearly wild with the torture. A neighbor
said il must be salt rheum. Having
used Cuticura Soap merely as toilet
soap before, I now decided to order a
set Of the Cuticura Remedies Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills. used them
according to directions for perhaps six
weeks, then left of, as the disease seemed
TO be eradicated. But toward spring,
eighteen months ago, there was 9 slight
return OF the scalp humor. COM
menced the Cuticura treatment at once,
so had very little trouble. On my scalp
] used about one half a cake OF Cuticura
ment in all. The first time took six
or seven bottles Of Cuticura Pills and
the last time three bottles-neithera an
expensive or tedious treatment. Since
then have had no scalp trouble Of any
kind. Standing up, with my hair un-
bound, it comes to my knees and had

Troublesome Skin Affections Put to
Rout by POSlam.

Rout by PosIam.
A recent exchange of experiences
between tel persons developed the fact
that nine of them were suffering from
foot trouble which caused continual
annoyance and, serious concern. Ac-
cording to those who know, the best
thing to do when the feet are tired.
inhamed, itching, chafed or broken out
is to apply a little poslam and note
how quickly the difficulty will vanish.
Poslam is the new skin remedy
which so rapidly combats the worst
cases of eczema and all skin troubles,
stopping all itching with the first ap-
plication. It makes quick work of
acne, herpes, letter, scaly scalp, bar
ber's and every other form of itch.
Occasional applications in small guam
titles will quickly Danish pimples,
hives, blackneads, blotches, etc. A
special soc package of poslan is pre-
pared for those who use poslam for
minor skin troubles, and this, as we'll
as the regular two-dollar jar, is on
sale at the Rcsser Drug Co. and Fred
A. Shows. as we'll as all drug stores.
But no on7 is even asked to pur-
chase poslam without first obtaining
