Standard Skin Cure

How many hospital patients, suffer-
ing the frightful itch, the raw scorch-
ing pain of skin disease, have been
soothed to sleep by a soothing fluid
washed in by the nurses hands?
That fluid is the famous D. D. D.

THE SUPERVISING NURSE of one
of our prominent Catholic institutions
(name of nurse and institute on appli-
cation) writes regarding a patient.
1.-THE disease had eaten her eyebrows
away. Her nose and lips had become
disfigured. Since the use of D. D. D.
her eyebrows are growing, her nose
and face have assumed their natural

ment and are being treated with this
