THE ALARMING PREVALENCE
OF ECZEMA
Finds Victims Among Every Race.
Age and Condition.

OF all tho diseases OF the skin and
kind, three-fourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and 1t
is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect In infancy
and childhood. Irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin, ignorance OF its real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is skin disease. 1t is not re-
garded as hereditary. nor contagious,
and is impartially distributed among
the rich and poor the high and low.
The agonizing itching and burning OF
the skin, causing loss OF sleep, is usual
ly the most distressing symptom and is
caused by the bursting of little vesicles
filled with an acrid fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst. scales
form upon scales, and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement is added TO
torture
One Of the most successful treat
ments for eczema, whether applied to
the youngest infant or the oldest per-
son, is hot baths with Cuticura Soap
and gentle anointings of Cuticura oint-
ment. For more than a generation.
these pure, sweet and gentle emolli-
ents have proved the most efficient
agents in the speedy and permanent

When the baby girl graduates from

There is a little round hat made by
shirring a large circle of silk or en-
