TOUGHING STORY

Of Baby's Dreadful Suffer
ing from Eczema.
CURED BY CUTICURA:
Now His Skin Is as Whlto
as a Snow Flake.
a terrible rash broke out on Char,
lie' poor little face and spread to hla
neck, chest and back. I had never seen
anything quite like It before,' write
Mrs. Helena Rath of 821 10th Ave., K. Y.
City. " The' skin rose In little lumps.
and matter came
out. My baby's sUb
waa hot, and how
be did suffer. He
wouldn't eat, and
'night after night I
walked the floor
wlth him, weak as I
.was. Often I had
'to stop because I
felt faint and my
back throbbed with pain. But the worst
pain of all waa to see my poor little
boy burning with those nasty sores.
At last I was persuaded by a friend
across the street to try the Cuticura
Remedies. She gave me some Cuticura
Ointment I think the box was about
half full and a piece of Cuticura Soap.
I followed the directions, bathing
Charlie and putting that nice Ointment
.on the soses. Little by little, but eo
surely, Charlie and I both got more
peace by day and more sleep by night.
The sores sort of dried up and went
away, and now Charlie Is cured com
pletely." Tee, that fat little boy by the win
dow is Charlie, and his skin Is as white
as a snow flake, thanks to the Cuticura
Remedies. I think everybody should
know about the Soap and Ointment,
and If It is going to help other mothers
with sick babies, go ahead and publish
what I have told you." '
