1t was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but 1t did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say 1t hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning I made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After I had his
face washed. put the Cuticura ONT
ment on and in short time his little
face was all red and dry. I kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
