"My husband and I thought you would like to know what the Cuticura Remedies have done for our baby boy. He had raming crzrna from birth. It developed itself after the first month. The poor little fellow's head was quite raw, his face was a sickening sight and the dreadful burrour would soak his pillow through in a single night. It Wore him to a shadow. People who saw him said, 'How can you wish him to live?' Tue doctors saw him; one recommended Cuticura Remedies, Int could do little else for him, for it was so pisticate. We tried several remedies, In fact everything we could think of and was told of. At last we got Cuticura Oint- ment, and together with the Cuticura Soap the result was marvelous, for I have not finished one box and the skin is now perfectly clear.
