Eczema Spread All Over His Body- Not a Minute's Comfort in Sixteen Months-Constantly Experi- mented With Remedies, but Even the Doctor's Treatment Failed-- Writer Pronounces the CUTICURA REMEDIES
OF MARVELOUS POWER
"A gentleman, who is a near relativa of mine, has aufered terribly with Do- zema The trouble started in the farm of little white pimples on the hands. These pimples would burst and become Bure. The irritation was very great at all times, and sometimes almost un bearable. He tried various remedies from the first, but nothing eversed to do him the least good. Still, he kept porsevering with all the things heard or read it. As his condition gradually bocarde worse under these trials, he do cided to go to a doctor. The dootor put biz under a treatment, and he per elsted with it for some time without the least sign of a permanent sur He was almost despairing. No sooner had rue sore healet than others ceang. Fram being only on the bands, the di ease spread until his whole body was affected. His wrists, elbows, and back were worst, and were really most dia treesing. The pain ho suffered is be yond words. His work necessitates plac ing his bande in water a great deal, and the water seemed to Grgravate the trouble. After the doctor's treatment failed, my relative again resorted to other remecies, with tho same disheart- ening result, and in this way sixteen months dragged by. During this time I can truthfully say that he did not bave a minute's comfort. His case having become so serious, you can in agine how thankful he was when be found that he had the right remedy in Cuticura. Had he started with Curicura Remedies at first he would have saved untold trouble and expense. He fol- lowed the directions carefully and the Improvement was most marked from day to day. He derived great comfort from the very first, and I should say that within six months the disease was per- fectly eradicated, and his skin is as clear e it ever was. I pronounce Cuticura Remedies to be of simply marvelous power. Mrs. E. Spakling, 12a, Der nett Rd., W. Croydon, nr. Louden. Nov. 26, 1906."
