PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES
"Four years ugo I had places break
out on my wrist and on my Bhln which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching thorn would not seem to
glvo any relief. When tho trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched liko
poison. I would scratch thoso placos
until they would bleed beforo I could
got any relief. Afterwards tho places
would Rcalo over, and tho flesh un
derneath would look red and feverish.
Sometimes It would begin to itch until
It would waken mo from my sleep,
and I would liavo to go through tho
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced it "dry
eczema." I used an ointment which
tho doctor gavo mo, but it did no good.
Then ho advised mo to try tho Cutl
cura Remedies. As this trouble has
been in our family for years, and is
considered hereditary, I felt anxious
to try to head it off. I got tho Cutl
cura Soap, Olntmont nnd Pills, and
thoy seemed to bo JuBt what I nocdod.
"Tho dUeaso was making grent
headway on my system until I got
tho Cutlctira Remedies which havo
cleared my skin of tho groat post.
From the tlmo tho eczema healed four
years ago, until now, I havo novor felt
any of Its post, and I am thankful to
tho Cutlcura Soap and Olntmont which
certainly cured mo. I always uso tho
Cutlcura Soap for toilet, and I hopo
other sufferers from skin diseases will
uso tho Cutlcura Soap und Olntmont."
