I took him to a doc tor and got ointments and medicines but his face kept on getting worse until it got so bad th at no one could * look a t him. His whole face was one crust and must have been very painful. He scratched day and night until his face sometimes looked like a raw piece of meat. , I was nearly Insane with his scratching day and night. Then I took him to all the best specialists in skin disease« but they could not do much for him. He sometimes screamed with pain when I put on the salve they gave me. “ When he was two years old the eczema got on his arms and legs so th at I had to keep them bandaged up and I made gloves for his hands so the nails could not poison him worse. We could not get a night’s sleep in months and my husband and 1 were all broken up. Then my mother asked why I did not give up the doctors and try Cuticura. So I got a set and he felt relieved the first time I used them, the Cuticura Ointment felt so cool. He used to wako up and ask for Cuti cura to be put on when he itched so badly that he could not sleep, and he would say, ‘Oh! Mama, th at makes my sores feel so good!’ I gave the Cuticura Remedies a good trial and gradually the eczema healed all up and now he is as well as any other chil dren. He is now seven years old and the cure has lasted two months, so I think it will never return. I can’t tell you how glad I am that Cuticura did such wonderful work in our case and I shall recommend it everywhere. Mrs. John G. Klurapp, 80 Niagara St., Newark, N.
