SPEEDY CURE BY CUTICURA REMEDIES ** Words cannot describe the terrU blc eczema 1 suffered with.

Blood and pus oozed from a> great ?ore on my scalp, from under my fin? ger nails, and near? ly all over my body, and every bair in my head fell out. I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to the raw and bleeding flesh, making, me cry out with pain. My doctor did all he could, but I got worse and worse. I did not think I could live, and wanted death to end my frightful sufferings. "My mother-in-law begged me to try Cuticura. I said I would, but had no hope of recovery. But oh( what blessed relief 1 experienced after ap? plying Cuticura Ointment, It cooled the bleeding and itching flesh, and bronght me the first real sleep' in weeks. It was as grateful as ice to ? burning tougue. I would bathe with warm water and Cuticura Soap, then apply the Ointment freely, and took the Resolvent for the blood. Soon the sores stopped running, the flesh began to heal my hair started to grow, and in a short time I was completely cured. If any one doubts this, tell* them to write to me.?Mrs. Wm.
