SCRATCHED FOR 28 YEARS.
" If I had known of the Cuticura Remedies fifty years ago it would have saved me two hundred dollars and an immense amount of suffering. !Ay disease (psoriasis; commenced on my head in a spot not larger than a cent. It spread rapidly over .ny body and got under my nails The scales would drop off of me all* the time and my suffering was endless and without relief. A thousand dollars would not tempt me to have this disease over again. lam a poor man, but feel rich to be free of what some of the doctors called leprosy, some ringworm, psoriasis, etc. I took and sarsapanllas over a year and a-half, but got no cure. I cannot praise tha Cuticura Remedies too m".eh. They made my skin as clear and free from scales as a baby's. All I tsed of them was two cakes of Cuticura Soap, three boxes of Cuticura Ointment and three bottles of Cuticura Resolvent. If you had been there and said you would have cured me for two hundred dollars, you would have had the money. I was covered with the scales, but by using Cuticura I was soon as clear as any person ever was. This was over twenty-two years ago and for a long time, through force of habit, I used to rub my hands oyer my arms and legs to scratch, but to no purpose—l was well. I had scratched twenty-eight years, and it got to be a kind of second nature to me. Denis Downing, Watsrbury, Vt., U.S.A., Nov. 27th, 1909." Reference: R. Towns & Co., Sydney.
