BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
a scale. Then it would break out
again and it spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and

hands and arms. I bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had it about six months when a
friend told me about Cuticura. sent
and got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent,
cake of Cuticura Soap and box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taxing two bottles of Resolvent, two
bnxes of Ointment and three cakes Of
soap he was sound and well, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
