Whole Body a Mass of Raw, Torturing Humor—Hair All Fell Out and Ears Seemed Ready to Drop Off—Clothing Would Stick to Bleeding Flesh Hoped Death Would End Fearful Suffering. CASE SEEMED HOPELESS BUT CUTICURA CURED HER "Words cannot describe the terrible eczema I suffered with. It broke out oh ray head and kept spreading until it covered rny whole body. I was almost a solid mass of sores from head to foot. I looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human feeing. The pain and agony I endured seemed more than I could bear. Blood and pus oozed from tho groat sore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and nearly all over my body. My ears were so crusted and swollen I was afraid they would break off. Every hair in my head fell out. I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to the raw and bleeding flesh, making me cry out from the pain. My family doctor did all he could, but I got worse and worse. My condition was awful. I did not think I could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings. "In this condition my mother-in-law begged mo to try the Cuticura Remedies. I said I would, but had no hope of recover}*. But oh, what blessed relief I experienced after applying Cuticura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding and itching flesh and brought roa the first real sleep I had had in weeks. It was as grateful as ice to a burning tongue. I would bathe with warm water and Cuticura Soap, then apply tho Ointment freely. I also took Cuticura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time the sores stopped running, the flesh began to heal, and I knew I was to get well again. Then tho hair on my head began to grow, and in a short time I was completely cured. I cannot praise Cuticura enough. I wish I could tell everybody who has eczema to use Cuticura. Mrs. Wm. Hunt, 135 Thomas St., Newark, N, J., U, S. A., Sept. 28, 1908.” Reference: R.
