HOW TO HEAL
SKIN-DISEASES

A Baltimore doctor suggests shis
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes and sim
liar itching, burning skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get a jag Of
resinoi ointment aud a cake of FesiDoi
soap. These will not cost q bis more
than seventy-fve cents. With the res
mol soap and warm water battle the e.
fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the akin is soft
ened. Dry very gently, spread on thin
layer Of the resinol ointment, and cover
with a light bandage-if necessary 70
protect the clothing. This should be-
done twice a day. Usually the distress
ing itching and burning stop with the
first treatment, and the skin soon be-
comes clear and healthy again.
