Out And Itches
Apply Sulphur
Just the moment you apply Men-tho-Sulphur
to an itching, burning or
broken out akin, tbe itching stops
and healing begins, saya a noted skin
apecialist. This sulphur preparation,
made into a pleasant cold cream,
givea such a quick relief, even to
fiery eczema, that nothing has ever
been found to take its place.
Because of its germ-destroying
properties, it quickly subdues the
itching, cools the irritation and heals
the eciema right up, leaving a clear,
smooth skin in place of ugly erup
tions, rash, pimples or roughness.
You do not have to Wait for im
provement. It quickly shows. You
can get a little jar of Bowles Men-tho-Sulphur
at any drug store.
