PAINFUL ECZEMA OX CHILD'S' CHEEK. ; P. 0., Rosewood, via Wagga, N.S.W "My little sister, when about five months ' old, got a small red spot on her left ! cheek, and as a few days went by this red spot gradually grew larger and spread all round her mouth. It was very itchy 1 and at tames, especially when mv sister 1 went near the fire, it was painful. The itchiness caused her to scratch it and we did all we could to stop her, but sometimes she got at it and so caused sores and the skin ruund them to become inflamed. We were quite convinced that it was eczema. We were advised to try ' different remedies but one and all had the same effect-that was doing no good whatever. After about a fortnight or more 1 saw an advertisement for the Cuticura Remedies and at once procured some Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. To our great relief the itching seemed to lessen, and after a, fe w applications of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment the red patch which had grown very large began to disappear, and within two days, after having used one tin of Cuticura Ointment and a cake of Cuticura Soap, the red patch had disappeared, and there are no signs whatever left " (Signed) Miss Hilda M. Harvet \nril 23, 1914. ' ipru Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold throughout the world, a sample of each, with 32-page Skin Book, will bo mailed free on application to R.
