First it was in small red spots which had a rough, crust on the top. W7hen they started they looked like little red dots and then they got bigger, about the size of a bird's egg. They had a white rough ring around them, and gTew continually worse and soon spread over his face and legs. The child suf fered terrible itching and burning, so that he could not sleep nights. Ho scratched them and they looked fear ful. He was cross when he had them. We used several bottles of liniment, but nothing helped. "I saw where a child had a rash on the face and was cured by Cuticura Soap and Ointment and I "decided to use them. I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment about one month, and thev cured my child completely." (Signed) Mrs. Barbara Prim, Jan. 30, 1912. Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold throughout the world.
