" ' i ' E CASE OF ECZEMA Extended Over Entire Body Mouth Covered With Crusts as Thick as Finger Which Would Bleed and Suppurate Disease Ate Large Holes In Cheeks Hands Pinned Down to Stop Agonized Scratch ingThree Doctors' Best Efforts Failed to Give Relief. BUT CUTICURA WORKS " . A MIRACULOUS CURE ' "When my little boy was six months old he had ezoema. The sores extended . so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but he oould not help him, and in our despair -we went to a third one. Matters be came so bad that he had regular holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger Into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with cruste as thick as a finger, and when ever he opened the mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also nis eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and back, in short the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever be was laid in his bed, we had to pin his hands down, otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore.- I think bis face must have itched most fearfully. "We finally thought nothing oould help, and I had made up my mind to ' send my wife with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good . medical care there. But, Lora be blessed, matters came differently, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment, . and Resolvent, and within ten days or -two weeks we notioed a decided im--; provement. Just as quickly as ,tlia siokness had appeared it also began W' disappear, and within ten weeks the; child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F.
