There is nothing more charming than

that, with all the evidence Of shattered

SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN

when my boy was about three
months old his head broke out with a
rash which was very itchy and ran
watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,
till it spread to his arms, legs and
then to his entire body. He got so
bad that he came near dying. The
rash would itch so that he would
scratch till the blood ran, and thin
yellowish stuff would be all over his
pillow in the morning. l had to put
mittens on his hands to prevent him
tearing his skin. He was so weak
and run down that he took fainting
spells as If he were dying He was
almost a skeleton and his little hands
we're thin like claws.
"He was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies. /
had not laid him down in his cradle
in the daytime for a long while.
washed him with Cuticura Soap and
put on one application Of Cuticura
Ointment and he was SO soothed that
he could sleep. You don't know how
glad was he felt better. 1t took one
box OF Cuticura Ointment and pretty
near one cake Of Cuticura Soap tc
cure him. l think our boy would have
died but for thu Cuticura Remedies
and l shall always remain a firm
friend of them. There has been nc
return of the trouble. / shall be GLAD
to have you publish this true state
ment of his cure" (Signed) Mrs. M
