My daughter mentioned a case of a man who had an attack of orebin en the cheat and arms and after spending a lot with doctors, etc., was perfectly oured after using one set of the Cuticura Remedies. So I sent for a set (canslat ing of Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent Pills) and after using them the first time I had a good night's sleep and from that timo have entirely lost the pain. The sores healed up and I continued the Cuticura Ointment for about a fortnight longer and have taken the Cuticura Pilla nightly till the bottle
