Show AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING "Just about two years ago, somo form of humor appeared on my scalp. Tho beginning was a slight Itching but it grew steadily worse until, when I combed my hair, tho scalp became raw and tho ends of tho comb-teeth would bo wet with blood. Most of tho time thcro was an intolerable itching, in a painful, burning way, very much B3 a bad, raw hum, if deep, will Itch nnd smart when first beginning to heal. Combing my hair was positive torture. My hair was long and tau-gled tau-gled terribly becauso of tho blood and scabs. This continued growing worso and over half my hair fell out. I was in despair, really afraid of becoming totally bald. "Sometimes the pain was so great that, when partially awake, I would scratch tho worst places so that my flngor-tips would bo bloody. I could not sleep well nnd, after being nsleep a short time, that awful stinging pain would commence and then I would wako up nearly wild with tho torture. A neighbor said it must bo salt rheum. Having used Cuticura Soap merely as a toilet soap before, I now decided to order a set of tho Cuticura Remedies Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills. I used them according to directions for perhaps six weeks, then left off, as tho disease seemed to be eradicated, eradi-cated, but toward spring, eighteen months ago, there was a slight return re-turn of tho scalp humor. I commenced com-menced tho Cuticura treatment at once, so had very Httlo trouble. On my scalp I used about one half a cake of Cuticura Soap and hnlf a box of Cuticura Ointment in all. Tho first tlmo I took six or seven bottles of Cuticura Cu-ticura Pills and tho last tlmo three bottles neither an expenslvo or tedious te-dious treatment. Since then I havo had no scalp troublo of any kind. Standing up, with my hair unbound, It comes to my knees nnd had it not been for Cuticura I should doubtless bo wholly ha!d.
