sll Girl of Six Months had Fearful Attack of Eczema—Spread All Over Her Face and Eyes Began to Swell — Scratched Till Blood Came Relieved in a Night and CURED BY CUTiCURA AFTER LONG SUFFERING m m "When my little girl was sir months old I noticed small red 6pots on her right cheek. I did not pay any attention to them but finally the spots grew so large that I sent for the doctor who said it was ringworm. He prei scribed an ointment jd which I used for two weeks, but instead of helping the eruption, the ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to a second doctor who after examining the baby said it wa3 eczema. He also gave 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 grow intolerable. I had to tie the baby’s hands to the cradle to prevent her scratching. The 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 cure the baby. I paid out from twenty to thirty dollars without relief. "One of my friends told me of the Cuticura Remedies and I sent at once for a set which I began to use that evening. The next morning the baby’s face was all white instead of red and you can : magine how surprised I was. I cannot find words enough to praise Cuticura and I do not know what would have boccmo of my baby only for it. I used the Cuticura Remedies until the eczema entirely disappeared. The child is now three years old and quite well. I used throe cakes of Cuticura Soap, two boxes f Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Jutieura Resolvent and I never use any 'ther soap. I always recommend them vhenever thore is a chance for doing so. ( will send vou one cf her pictures rhich she had taken just after she was icaled. Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, la., U. S.
