BABY'S INTOLERABLE ITCHING.

' " When my little girl was six months old I noticed small, red spots on her right cheek. The bpots grew so largo that I sent for the doctor, who said it was ringworm. Ho prescribed an ointment, which I used for two weeks, but the ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to a second doctor, who said it was eczema. He also give mo an ointment, which did not help either. The disease in the meantime spread all over the face, and the eyes began to swell. I became very anxious. The itching grew intolerable. I had to tie the baby's hands to the cradle to prevent her scratching. Tho cheeks were covered with blood, and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doctors from September to December, but they were unable to euro the baby. " One of my friends told mo of the Cuticura Remedies, and I sent at once for a set. which I began to use that evening. Tho next morning tho baby's face was all white, instead of red, and you can imagine how surprised I was. I cannot find words enough to praise Cuticura, and I do not know what would have become of my baby only for it. I used th«? Cuticura Remedies until the eczema entirely disappeared. The child is now three years old and quite well. I used three cakes of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment, and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, and I never use any other soap. I always recommend them whenever there is a chance for doing so.— Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, la., U.S.A., July 13, 1908.'' Reference: R. Towns and Co., Sydney.
