baby was completely covered even in

weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch Of

pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He Is
a very able physician and ranks with

the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment.
Not until commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like. as we dared not
wash him. and had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came on. and left him entirely
bald. but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after We began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. don't believe anyone could
