MAKES COMPLETE CURE
"When my little girl was a few months old, her eyes began to get bud; thinking it was from her teeth, I lived in hopes of them getting better, but as they did not improve I decided to get medical advice. I took her to the Hospital several times, and subsequently to the Children's Hospital at to which institution I took her for twelve months. The doctors were most kind and attentive, and did all they could for her, but her eyes seemed to be growing worse. One doctor told me they might be bad for years; I was very miserable at such a prospect. I was one day stopped in the street by a Mrs. Todd who told me that Cuticura Oint ment had cured her boy, atid advised me to try it. I commenced using it that very night. The cure has been marvellous. strong, The eyes soon commenced to get st and they are now as healthy as if there had never been anything the matter with them. The cure was completed with less than one box of Cuticura Ointment.
