The itching stopped for about three days. but when it started again, was even " rse than before. The eczema itched S badly l couldn't stand It any more.
 ''I went to a doctor and he gave me me medicine but didn't do any good. We have been having Cutieura Rem edies in the house, so decided to try them. l had been using Cuticura Soap. so l got me a box of Cuticura Ointment. and washed off the affected part with Cuticura Soap three times a day. and then put the Cuticura Oint- ment on. The first day l put 1t on, 1t relieved me of itching so I could sleep all that night. It took about a week, then l could see the scab come off. kept the treatment up for three weeks. and my eczema was cured.
 My brother got his face burned with gun-powder, and he used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The people all thought he would have scars. but you cant see that he ever had his face burned. It was simply awful to look at before the Cuticura Remedies (Soap and Ointment cured it." (Signed) Miss Elizabeth Gehrki. For rest City, Ark. Oct. 16. 1910.

do they are getting rich at II.
Every time the public demands a dol
