LEG A MASS OF HUMOUR.
"About seven years ago a small abrasion appeared on my right log, just above my ankle. It irritated mo so that I began to scratch it, and it spread, until my leg from my ankle to the knee was one solid scale, like a scab. The irritation was always worse at .night and would not allow mo to sleep, and it was completely undermining my health. I lost fifty pounds in weight, and was almost out of my mind with pain and chagrin, as, no matter whero the irritation came, at work, or on the street, or in the presence of company, I would have to scratch it, until I had tho blood running down into my shoe. I simply cannot describe my suffering during those seven years. " I tried all kinds of doctors and remedies, but I might as well have thrown my money down a sewer. They would dry it up for a little while and fill me with hope, only to break out again just as bad, if not worse. I had given up hop© of ever being cured when I was induced by my wife to give the Outicura Remedies a trial. After using .the Cuticura Remedies for a little while I began to see a change, and after taking a dozen bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, in conjunction with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, the trouble had entirely disappeared, and my leg was as fine as the day I was born. Now, after a lapse of six months, with no signs of a recurrence, I feel perfectly safe in oxtending to you my heartfelt thanks for the good the Cuticura Remedies have done for me.—W. H. White, Mgr. Label Dept.. Typo. Union, No. 2, 312 E., Cabot-st., Philadelphia, U.S.A., Feb. and Apr. 13, 1909." Reference: R. Towns | and Co., Sydney.
