I was admitted into hospital, 'nit the treatment I received did not seem to give me any relief, and I was invalided .to England for a change. On arrival I was sent to several hospitals, but still no signs of recovery. After some months of treatment I wa3 finally invalided out of the service as medically unfit. I then thought I would try the Cuticura Remedies. After I had used four sets, which included Cuticura ..Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Outicura Pills. I began to see and feel a Treat improvement, I telt stronger, and in about nine months the sores and pimples quite disappeared, and I became able to go to business daily, which I have done ever since.
