HOW She ENDED
TEN YEARS OF
SKIN-T0RTURE

Oct %, 1914i-"I had eczema on my
face for ten years. Little red pimples
formed in a small spot On my chin and
then spread all over my face. They
itehed and burned me awfully. 1t was
certainly embarrassing to me, and
would not go amongst people. I tried
almost every remedy and treatment
that could be used for this trouble, but
nothing did me any good. I used Res
inol Ointment and Resinol Soap, and
was relieved in day or two. In one
month I was cured. This was six
months ago and the trouble has never
returned. = tSigned) Mrs. C. G. Rob-
'erts Weatherford, Okla.
The Resinol treatment speedily heals
eczema, rashes, ringworm, and other
eruptions, and clears away disfguring
pimples and blackheads, even when
other treatments prove worse than use

mt and Resinol Soap for eigh-
ears. and all druggists sell them.
