IT IS AN AGONY OF AGONIES. A torturo of tortures. It is an itching atd burning of the skin almost beyond endurance. It is thousands of pin-beaded vesicles filled with an acrid fluid, ever forming, ever bursting, ever flowing upon the raw, excoriated skin. No part of tha human skin is exempt. It tortures, disfigures, and humiliates more than all other skin diseases combined. Tender babies are among its most numerous victims. They are often born with it. Sluep and rest are out of the question.' Most remedies and the best physicians generally fall, avun to relieve. Such is Eczema, the greatest Utin disease of .mouern times. If Coxicora remedies did no more than cure eczema, thoy would be entitled to the gratitude of mankiud. Thoy not only cure, nut a warm bath with Coticitua Soap and a single application of Cuticuih (ointment), the great skin cure, followed by mild doses of Cuticbra Resolvent (tho new blood purifier), is often sufficient to afford instant relief, ponnit rest and sleep, and point to n speedy cun. when all clsn fails. Truly, CUTICURA WORKS WONDERS. 17
