RELIGIOUS WEEKLY
Sends the Following Grand Testimonial
the Merits of Cuticura Remedies in the
Treatment of Humours of the
N Blood, Skin and Scalp.
to
, "I wish to five my testimony to
the efficiency cf the Cuticura Reme
dies in what seems to me two some
what remarkable cases. I had a
number of skin tumours small
ones on my arms which had never
(riven me serious trouble ; but about
two years agcr one came on my
throat At first it was only about as
large as a pinhead, but, as it was in
a position where my collar, if not
. just right, would irritate it. it soon
became very sensitive and began to
grow rapidly. Last sjring it was
: as large, if not larger, than a bean.
A little unusual irritation of my
collar started it to swelling, and in
a day or two it was as large as
half an orange. I was very much
alarmed, and was at a loss to de
termine whether it was a carbuncle
or a malignant tumour.
" My frienda tried to persuade me
to consult my physician ; but dread
ing that he would insist on usiilg
the knife, I would not consent to
go. Instead I got a small bottle of
CuticurtReolvent and a box of Cu
ticura Ointment. 1 I took the former
according to directions, and spread
thick layer of tluWintment on a
linen cloth and placed it on the
awelling.On renewing it I would
bath my nefck in very warm water
and Cuticura Soap. In a few days
the Cuticura Ointment had drawn
the awelling to a head, when it
broke. Every morning it was opened
with S large sterilized needle,
aqueezed and bathed, and fresh
Ointment put on. ' Pus and blood,
and a yellow, cheesy, tumorous
matter came out. in aooui vnree or
four weeks' time this treatment
completely eliminated boil and
x nc Bweiici tut in
tended down into my chest was all
gone, and my neck now seems to be
perfectly well. .
" About five or six years ago my
sister had a similar experience. She
had two large lumps come under
her right arm. the result of a sprain.
They grew rapidly, and our physi
cian wanted to cut them out. I
would not listen to it, and she tried
the Cuticura Remedies (as I did a
few months ago) with magical effect.
In 'six weeks' time the lumps had
entirely disappeared, and have never
returned. z ) - -
" 1 have great faith in the Cuticura
Remedies, and I believe they might
be as efficacious in similar cases
with other people, and thus save
much suffering, and perhaps life. I
have derived so mucn benefit from
the use of them myself that I am
constantly advising
others to use them. Re
i cently I recommended
them to an omce boy Tor
his father, who was dis
abled with salt rheum.
The man's feet were
swollen to an enormous
size, and he had not
worked for six weeks.
Two bottles of Cuticura,
kesolvehl &hil two boxes
of CUllcura Ointment
Worked a perfect cure.
You never saw a more
grateful man in your life.
"I am very much in
terested in another case
wher I have recom
mended Cuticura just
now. My housemaid's
mother haa a goitre
which had reached a
very dangerous point
The doctors tola her
that nothing could be
done ; that she could live
onlr two or three weeks,
and that she would die
of strangulation. She
was confined to her bed,
and was unable to speak, when her
daughter, at my suggestion, tried
the effect of the Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Resolvent. Strange to
say, she waa very shortly relieved of
the most distressi ng sy mptoms. The
swelling seemed to be exteriorized,
and she is now able to be around
her house, and can talk as well as
ever.
" It seems to 'me that I have pretty
good grounds for believing that
Cuticura Remedies will prove sua
cesRful In the most distressing form
of blood and skin humours, and if
vou wish to ude my testimonial as
herein indicated, I am willing that
you should do so, with the further
privilege of revealing my name and
address to such persons as may wish
to substantiate the above state
ment by personal latter to me."
