PSORIASIS CURED.
Naval Hospital Steward Contracted Disease in West Indies—Left Scaly Surfaces on Lo-.-er LimbsEczematous Eruption Followed —Nothing Gave Permanent Relief —Suffered 23 Years—Cured by Cuticura.
•"I suffered for years from psoriasis affecting the outer sides of the calves of both limbs, contracted in the. West Indies in '82 or '83, while serving on H.M.3. Northampton as sick berth steward. I treated myself'. with preparations of mercury and sarsaparilla _ for about nine months, but the eruption, continued for years, and eventually left a scaly surface surrounding both limbs. At the beginning of the present year an eczematous eruption appeared, and I decided to give a trial to tho Cuticura Remedies, of which I needed but five supplies. After tho first week I found great relief, and I have been quite free from any irritation, since, although I continued the treatment for ten weeks in all. I consider that Cuticura Remedies have dope more towards curing the troublesome disease than all the other remedies put together. Henry Campbell, Naval Pensioner, 9, Grove Road, Luton, Chatham, Kent, Oct. 17, 1906."
