TWO CURED OF SKIN TROUBLE

II have suffered from birth with
skin trouble, and doctored with four
of the best doctors that could be
found, without any lasting effects.
Then l used several kinds of patent
medicines, only growing worse in
stead of better. After using them
long time l was so bad that it took
the hair off my head, and even my
eyebrows too. and made my eyes so
bad that | was kept in dark room
for several weeks. l was out of my
head for a long time. A friend told
me to get some of the Cuticura Rem
edies and she knew they would cure
me, so | got some packages of Cuti-
cura Ointment and Resolyent and
used them and was cured. This was
about two years ago. and have never
had a touch of it since.
Also my husband had had salt
rheum for twenty-three years, and
after | had such wonderful cure
through the use of the Cuticura Rene
dies, he sent for some Cuticura Soap,
Cutieura Ointment and Resolvent, and
used them himself and he was cured
His flesh was covered with stuff like
fish scales, especially in the winter and
he even had it in his hair so bad he had
to keep his hair cut close to his head
1t even grew down on his face, but We
are now both happy over our cures
through the use of Cuticura treat
ment." fSigned) Mrs. Laurence But
Ter, Chesterfield N. H., Jan. 10, 1911.

ment are sold everywhere, sample
