IF SKIN BREAKS

APPLY SULPHUR


The moment you apply bold sulphur
to an itching or broken out skin, the
itching stops and healing begins, says
a renowned dermatologist.
This remarkable sulphur made into
a thick cream effects such prompt re-
lief, even in aggravated Eczema, that
it is a never ending source of amaze
ment to physicians.
For many years bold-sulphur has
occupied secure position in the treat
ment of eutaneeus eruptions by rea-
son of its cooling, parasite destroying
properties and nothing has ever been
found TO take its place in relieving irri-
table and inhammatory affections of
the skin. While not always estab-
fishing a permanent cure, yet, in every
instance, it Immediately subdues the
itching Irritation and heals the Ecze-
ma right up and ii is often years la
ter before any eruption again mani
tests itself.
Any good pharmacist will supply an
ounce of bold-sulphur cream. which
should be applied TO the affected parts
like the ordinary cold creams. It isn't
unpleasant and the prompt relief af-
foraed is very. welcome, particularly
when the Eczema is accompanied with
torturous itching ADV
