People sometimes say: well, that

if it will help me, for l have had eczema
a long time"
The fact is, Saxon Salve was devised
as much for chronic skin troubles rs for
acute cases, and it is equally effective.
though usually the chronic cases are
more stubborn.
Numbers of cases right around here
could be cited, showing that Saxon Salve
is exactly the remarkable soothing and
curative remedy for skin diseases that

The itching is stopped in a few mo-
