Whole Body Raw with EczemaLife was intolerable—Was Even Incased in Plaster—Discharged from Hospitals as Hopeless: SUFFERED 14 YEARS . CURED BY CUTICURA "From the age of three months until Ifteen years old, ray son Owen's life tytas made intolerable by eczema in its worst form. Hp was all right until a red rash broke out on his lorehead, but we were net alarmed at first. Very soon, however, the rash began to spread over his head and shoulders, and it caused him great' discomfort. I took him to a doctor and tried half a dozen other treatments, all with the same result: no improvement at all. The -Msease gradually spread until nearly ?erv part of bia body was quite raw. We had to strap him down in bed, for bs> used to t*ar hirascli dreadfully m k c'i.'C. TL«! >s.gouy he \:ent !;awugr. us quiteWond words. Ho one tougct w© would' rear him. The regimental doctor, a very clever man, pronounced the case hopeless; at least, he said the only hope was that he might, if he lived long enough, outgrow it to some extent. We had him in hospitals four times and he was pronounced one or tho worst cases, if not the worst, ever admitted. From each he was discharged as incurable; in fact he got worse under the successive treatments. At one hospital they incased him in plaster, and this ssemed to aggravate the soreness terribly. H» looked so badlv that no one liksd to go near him and his life was a burden to him, \\ e kept trying remedy after remedy, but we" had got almost past hoping for a cure. Sis months ago we purchased a set of Caticura Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent Pilla and persevered with them. The result was truly marvelous and to-day he is perfectly cured, his skiv. not having a blemish on it anywhere. Mrs. Liiy Hedge, 51, Vaughan.
