ITCHING OF SCALP INTOLERABLE . 0 Nearly Wild with Painful, Burning Eruption—Half Her Hair Fell Out and Combing It Was TortureFeared She Would be Bald. — « IN DESPAIR UNTIL CURED 6Y CUTICURA ■ ■ " Just about two toots ago, some form of humor appcarecf on my 6calp. Tho beginning was a slight itching but Jt grow steadily worse until, when I combed my hair, the scalp became raw and tho ends cf the comb-teeth would bo wet with blood. Most cf tho timo thero waa an intolerable itching, in a painful, burning way, very much as a bad, raw burn, if deep, will itch and smart when firet beginning to heal. Ccmbine; my hair was positive torture. My hair waa long and tangled terribly because-of the blood and seal _. This continued growing worse and over half my hair fell out. I was in despair, really afraid of becoming totally bald. "Semotimcs the pain was so great that, when partially awake, I would scratch the wor.-t places so that my fin-ger-tips would bo bloody. I could not eleep well and, after being asleep a short time, that awful stinging pain would commence and then I would wake up nearly wild wi th tho torture. A neighbor said it must bo e__t rheum. Having •used Cuticura Soap merely as a toilet soap be'ero, I now decided to order a eet cf t_"i Cuticura Remedies —Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills. I used them according to directions fcr perhaps six weeks, then left eft, cs the diseaso e-ecmed to bo eradicated. But toward spring, eighteen mcntli_ aeo, there waa a dight return cf tho scrip hurr.cr. I ccm-n.er_--*d tho Cuticur_ treatment at ence, so had very litt!_ troublo. On my scalp I iwod about ceo h_!f a cake cf Cutic;*ra Soap and half a l>-a: cf Cuticura Ointment in all. Tho first timo I tcok six cr coven bottles cf Cuticura Pills aad tho last timo threo bottles—neither an expensive or tedious treatment. Since then I havo had no £C_Jp troublo cf any kind. Standing up, with my hair unbound, it ccroe- to-my knees end had it not keen fcr Cuticura I ehould doubtless be wholly bald.
