"I WAS first affected on tho arms and hands and between tho fingers, and then nearly all over the body. It first broke out in small pimples, which filled with water. Sometimes it was matter, and they itched so much that I could not sleep night or dav. As soon ad I got warm in bed the itching was dreadful. I could not help scratching, and then they would bleed until they wero hko sores. It was like this over five months. I had a physician aftor I had it for weeks, and ho told mo it was a skin disease called eczema. I used his treatment for a fortnight, no more, for ,(, nearlv sent mo mad with tho smarting of it I tried lots of things after that which cost mo pounas. It is now over eight months since I first had it, and now I have not one spot on me. Then I used five tablets ■)i Cufricura Soap first, and one box of Cuticura Ointment, and in a week all tho scabs cam© off ana left, small purple spots, and in a fortnight every ono was gone Now it is all new skin, and no one would think how dreadful id was.
