SMn Humours. Scalp Humours,
Hair Humours,
Whether Simple Scrofulous or
Hereditary
Speedily Cured by Guiicura
Soap, Ointment and Pills,
When All Other Remedies and
Best Physicians Fail.
COMPLETE TREATMENT, $1.00.
In the treatment of torturing, disfig
uring, itching, scaly, crusted, pimply,
blotchy and scrofulous humours of the
skin, scalp and blood, with loss of hair,
Cutlcura boap, Ointment and Pills have
been wonderfully successful Even
the most obstinate of constitutional hu
mours, such as-bad blood, scrofula, in
herited and contagious humours, with
loss of hair, glandular swellings, ulcer
ous patches in the throat and mouth,
sore eyes, copper-colored blotches, as
well as boils, carbuncles, scurry, sties,
ulcers and sores arising from an Im
pure or impoverished condition of the
blood, yield to the Cuticura Treatment,
when all other remedies and methods
fail.
And greater still. If possible, is the
wonderful record of cures of torturing,
disfiguring humours amoug infants and
children. The suffering which Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment have alleviated
among the young, and the comfort
they have afforded worn-out and wor
ried parents, have led to their adoption
' in countless homes as priceless cura
tives for the skin and blood. Infantile
and birth humours, milk crust, scall
head, eczema, rashes and every form of
Itching, scaly, pimply skin and scalp
humours, with loss of hair, of infancy
and childhood, are speedily, perma
nently and economically cured when
all other remedies suitable for children,
and even the best physicians, fail.
