beginning by little pimples breaking out I kept scratching till the blood came It kept getting worse I couldn’t sleep nights It kept Itching for about n any more moath then I went to a doctor and got some liquid to take It seemed as if I was going t d gel better The Itching stopped for about three days but when it started again was even worse than tyefore The eczema Itched so badly I couldn’t stand it any more “I went to a doctor and he gave me some medicine but didn’t do any good We have been having Cuticura Remedies in the house so I decided to try them I had been using Cuticura Soap so I got me a box of Cuticura Ointment and washed off the affected tart with Cuticura Soap three times a day and then put the Cuticura Ointment on The first day I put it on it relieved me of itching so I could sleep all that night It took about a week then I could see the scab come off I kept the treatment up for three weeks and my eczema was cured “My brother got his face burned with gun powder and he used Cuticura The people all Soap and Ointment thought he would have scars but you can’t see that he ever had his face burned It was simply awful to look at before the Cuticura Remedies and (Soap Ointment) cured it” (Signed) Miss Elizabeth Gehrkl Forrest City Ark Oct 16 1910 Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold by druggists and dealers everywhere book a sample of each with will be
