MEDICAIj. CURE BY CUTICURA AT CITJJISSII Young Woman Found in Awful Condition with Scabies—Body a Mass of Sores from Scratching—Tried Many Remedies for Seven Weeks —Result Was Discouraging, But ITCHING TORTURES YIELDED TO CUTICURA ■ "■While I was doing missionary worfe in the lower portion of S3veral cities I found it necessary to know a little of the efficacy of a few medicines and after a while I found that a little kno-wJ-edge of Cuticura was about all I needed.

When I reached home I was like a chad with a new toy, and we bathed our patient well and gava her a full dose of the Resolvent. She slept that night better than she had since she had been with us and the next day I located the price of a box of Cuticura Ointment. I am not exaggerating when I say that in exactly five weeks this young woman was able to look for a position, being strong enough to work and full of ambition.
