“ I was afflicted with eczema on my
face and hands and I used medical treat-
ment for two weeks, but to no avail. I
then commenced using the Cuticura
Remedies, and after using two cakes of
Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura
Ointment for a little over a month I
was entirely cured, Miss Jennie B.

ANOTHER CURE
“I suffered for more than ten years
with a skin disease. Sores were on my
legs and they made me sick. Physicians
were called in to attend to me, but they
did me no good. Nothing seemed to do
me any good until one day one of my
friends advised me to try the Cuticura
Remedies and which I did, and inless
than four weeks I was made well. I
used the Complete Treatment, consist-
ing of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment and Cuticura Pills and I found
them all very successful. My friends were
surprised at such a quick cure, and i
am glad to tell everybody what the
Cuticura Remedies have done tor
me. Bertha Simpson, Alviso, Caln.,
May 24, 1906.”
AND STILL ANOTHER
“ My two children had the eczema,
the first one had it for five months all
over the body and we had two doctors
treat her. I saw the Cuticura Remedies
advertised and bought the Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment and Cuti-
cura Pills, and after using them it wasn t
but a short while before she was cured.
My other child was also afflicted and
the Cuticura Remedies cured her also.
We think the Cuticura Remedies the
best on the market, and we always keep
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment on hand. R. R. Crowson, Love-
lady, Texas, May 30, 1906.”
