***I Buffered a long time twelve months or more) with scurt won the face and neck caused, I think, through washing myself with inferior scapa. My face was awful and I dared hardly wash myach, fearing to cenise more pain. Several persons advlied me to go to the chemist's and got him to make me up some ointment." But I had tried so many different lade of soap and ointment that I refrained from getting any more. At last a friend advised me to try Cuticura Dintment, which I did, as a fant resort. After one or two appll- -cations I found that the scurt began to diappear and my skin to become acoth again--in a few weeks it had entirely gone. This speaks volumes for the curing power of Cuticura Ointment and I shall not fail to recommend it to my friends. Since then I have used Cutloura Soap and I find It of great benelit to the skin.
