If Skin Breaks
Out And Itches
Apply Sulphur

Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin spe-
cialist This sulphur preparation,
made into a pleasant cold cream, gives
such a quick relief, even to fiery ecze-
ma, that nothing has ever been found
to take its place.
Because of its germ-destroying
properties, it quickly subdues the itch
ing, cools the irritation and heals the
eczema right up, leaving a clear
smooth skin in place Of ugly eruptions,
rash, pimples or roughness.
You do not have to wait for i'm
proVement. It quickly shows. You
can get a little jar Of ROwles Mentho-
Sulphur at any drug store. adv
