What to Do for Eczema

Greasy salves and ointments should
not be applied if good clear skin is
wanted. From any druggist for Csc or
S1.OO for extra large size, get a bottle
of zemo. When applied as directed, it
effectively removes eczema, quickly
stops itching. and heals skin troubles,
also sores, burns, wounds and chafng.
1t penetrates, cleanses and soothes.
Zemo is a clean, dependable and mex
pensive, penetrating, antiseptic liquid.
Try it, as we believe nothing you have
ever used is as effective and satisfying.
