ltched and Burned. Clothing Irri- tated. Face Badly Disfgured. Used One Cake Cuticura Soap. and One1Box Ointment. Before Finished Trouble Was Gone.

Route 6. Huntingdon, Tenn." At three months old my baby broke out with blsters nil over his body. They would form sores which we could not cure. They looked like burn blisters and they itched and burned 50 that it was almost impossible for him to sleep at night Whenever he scratched them they would make a bad sore and his clothing irritated them so that he kept me awake greater part of the night. His face was badly disfigured.
 ''I got different kinds of salves but they didn't do him any good. Then l noticed an advertisement of Cuticura Soap and Ointment so sent for Q sample. They helped him so much that l bought t1 cake of Cilti- cura Soap and box of Cuticura Ointment. I would bathc him good in Cuticura Soap and apply the Cutjcura Ointment twice daily and before I had finished them tho sores had entirely disappeared and the trouble was gone' (signed) Mrs. Myra B.
