ECZEMA IN RASH
ON HEAD, FACE
And Neck. Mass of Sore Eruptions, Burning Terribles Kept Awake,
Cuticura Entirely Healed.
"A few months after birth my daugh ter had eczema on her head, face, and neck. It first appeared as a rash and her head was one mass of sore eruptions. The irritation and burning were terrible, and used to keep her awake nearly alt night I had to cover her hands to pre- vent ber from scratching.
After a year I was told to use Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment so I did. After using adour two tins she was nearly healed, and by the time I had used. three tins she was entirely healed.". (Signed) Mrs. Mary Summer, Well House Farm, Eversley, Nr. Winchfield, Hants, Eng. August 15, 1915.
