PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTlCURA REMEDIES

-Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. 1 would scratch those places
until they would bleed before 1 could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh I'M
derneath would look red and feverish.
Sometimes it would begin to itch until
it would waken me from my sleep,
and 1 would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced it dry
eczema I used an ointment which
the doctor gave me, but it did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cutf-
cura Remedies. AS this trouble has
been in our family for years, and is
considered hereditary, 1 felt anxious
to try to head it off. / got the Cuti-
cura Soap, Ointment and Pills, and
they seemed to be just what I needed.
''The disease was making great
Roadway on my system until I got
the Cuticura Remedies which have
cleared my skin of the great pest.
From the time the eczema healed four
years ago, until now, have never felt
any of it's pest, and 1 am thankful to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. / always use the
Cuticura Soap for toilet, and / hope
other sufferers from skin diseases Will
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment"
