Child Suffered With Dry Eczema

On Head. Formed Bare Patch Broke Out in Pimples Cuticura Perfectly Healed in a Fortnight

"My life girl suffered with dry eczema on the top of her head causing her to scratch until it bled. This went on farabout six months and then it formed a bare patch about the size of a sixpence, and afterward broke out at the back of her bead in big pimples.

"Seeing Cuticura Soap and Ointment advertised we decided to try them. The effect was marvelous and fay little girl was perfectly healed in about a fort night" (Signed) Mrs. S. Scraton, 4, De Silva St., Huyton Quarry, Nr. Liverpool, Eng. Aug. 1, 1916.

Cuticura Scap to cleanse and parify. and Ointment to soothe 'and heal are not only wonderful healers but wonderful preventives of skin and scalp troubles.
