BABY HORRIBLY BURNED.
" My baby, aged ten months, was sitting on the mat beside, the fender when a fryingpan full of boiling grease was upset and it went all over one side of her face and head. Ono of the family ran and wiped the scald with a towel, and you may think what a mess she made, pulling tho entire skin off. We took her to a chemist, who told us to get a doctor, which wo did. Ho tended her a week and gave mo some stuff like lard to put on. But it all festered, and 1 thought the baby was disfigured for life. A woman close beside mo told mo to try Cuticura Ointment. I used about three boxes and it was wonderful how it healed. In about five weeks it was better, and there wasn't a mark to tell where tiio scald had been. Her skin is just like velvet, and I have never been without Cuticura since."—Mrs. Hare, 1. .Henry-street, South Shields, Durham, Eng., March 22, 1908. Reference: R. Towns and Co., Sydney.
