ITCHING NEARLY
DROVE A WHOLE
FAMILY CRAZY

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. "a, l0l4;---
''My husband had rash all over his
body, and soon the WHOLE FAMILY
was in the same condition. 1t looked
scaly and raised UP on the arms and
body in big bumps. This trouble
burned and itched 30 that 1t would
nearly drive one crazy. 1t was always
worse at night, so we could not sleep.
We all had this trouble for about two
or three years, and during that time
tried many remedies and prescriptions
with no results. We tried Resinol Oint-
ment and Resinol Soap and it RE-
LEVIED AT ONCE, and before the
third jar Of ointment had been used, we
were all completely cured. 1t has been
four months since we were cured, and
there are no traces of the trcuble."-
tSigned) Mrs. s. A. Clarkson, 1920
Lawn Ave.
Every druggist sells Resinol Oint-
ment and Resinol Soap, and physicians
have prescribed them for 20 years in
the treatment of skin troubles.
