MOTHERS, DO A rOU REALISE how your little ones suffer when their tender skins are literall.v on fire with itching and burning eczemas aud other itchinit, scaly, and blotchy skin and srcilp diseases ? To know that a warm bath with Cuticuiu Soap and a single application of Cuticuka (ointment), the great skin cure, will, in the great majority of cases, afford^ instant relief, permit rest aud sleep, and point to a permanent and economical (because so speedy) cure, and not to use them vritbout a moment's delay, is to fail in your duty.
