"When I was about nine year
small sores appeared on euch o
lower limbs.
I scratched them Wth a
brass pin ind
shortly at ten SU*da
both of those mba
becamo so son that
I could sen cely
walk. When! had

whero the sores had
been. From .that
timo onward I was
troubled by Vuch
severe itching lhat,
until I beofino
accustomed to it, I would scratch the
sores until the blood tiognn to Bow.
This would stop t.ho Itching for a few
days; but scaly places would api>ear
agnin and ?ho itching would accompany
them. After I suffored about ten years
1 made a renewed effort to effect a eure.
The eruptions by this time had appeared
on every pnrt of my body except my
face and hands. Tho best doctor in my
nativo county advised mo to u?o nrsenio
in f.mnll doses and a salve. I then used
to bathe tho sores in a mixture which
gavo almost intolerable pain. In addi?
tion I used otherrcmediod.sueh ns iodino,
sulphur, zino salvo, -'s Salvo,
? Ointment, and in fnct I wns con?
tinually giving Romo remedy a fair trial,
never using less than one or two boxes or
bottles. All this was fruitless. Finally

but it did no good. A fow months after,
having used almost everything else, I
thought I would try Cuticura Ointment,
having previously used Cuticura Soap
and being pleased with it. After using
throo boxes I wan completely cured,

years of suffering and mi expenditure of
at least $.r>0 to $00 in vainly endeavoring
