BABY'S PITIFUL SKIN DISEASE.
" Our baby when two months old was suffering with terrible eczema from head to foot, all over her body. Ihe baby looked just like a skinned rabbit. We were unable to put clothes on her. At first it seemed to be a few mattered pimples. They would break the skin and peel off, leaving the underneath skin red, as though it were scalded. Then pimples spread all over the body, leaving the baby all raw, without skin from head to foot. On the top of her head there appeared a heavy scab a quarter of an inch thick. It was awful to see so small a baby look a3 she did. Imagine! The doctor was a'raid to put his hands to the child. We tried several doctors' remedies, but all failed. " Then we decided to try Cuticura. By using the Cuticura Ointment we softened the scab, and it came off. Under this, by washing with the Cuticura Soap and applying the Cuticura Ointment, a new skin soon appeared. We also gave baby four .drops of the Cuticura Resolvent three times daily. After three days you could see the body gaining a little skin which would peel oil and heal underneath. Now the baby is four months old. Sho is a fine picture of a fat little baby and all is well. We only used one cake of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent. If people would know what Cuticura is there would be few suffering with eczema. Mrs Joseph Kos3mann, Ridgewood Heights, N.Y., U.S.A., April 30th and May 4th, 1909." Reference : R. Towns & Co., Sydney.
