ing to get relief. ! recommended all
the various treatments / could think
Of and he spent about fifteen dollars
on prescriptions, but nothing seemed
to help him.
In the meantime my wife. who
was continually suffering with slight
skin trouble and who had been try
ing different prescriptions and meth
DDS with my assistance. told me she
was going to get some Of the Cuticura
Remedies and give them a fair trial.
But As ! did not know much about
Cuticura at that time I was doubtful
whether It would help her. Her skin
would thicken, break and bleed, es-
pecially on the fingers. wrists and
arms. could do nothing to relieve
her permanently. When she first ap-
piled the warm baths Of Cuticura
Soap and applications Of Cuticura
Ointment she saw a decided improve
ment and in a few days she was COM
pletely cured.
Il lost no time In recommending
the Cuticura Remedies to Mr. -.
and this was two months ago. told
him to wash with warm baths OF the
Cuticura Soap and to apply the Cuti-
cura Ointment generously. Believe
me. from the very first days use OF
the Cuticura Remedies he was greatly
relieved and today he is completely
cured through their use. I have great
faith in the Cuticura Remedies and
shall always have a good word for
them now that I am convinced OF
their wonderful merits" (Signed) r.
