ECZEMA DROVE HIM TOJESPAIR Hand Became Swollen and Very Red and Painful —Arm Gradually Affected Up to Elbow—lmpossible to Give Idea of Agony Undergone for Three Years — Doctor and Very Many Remedies Fail. CURED BY TWOSETS OF CUTICURA REMEDIES “My trouble started -with swelling in my right hand, which became rod and very painful and irritating. This swellIng spread gradually up tho arm until iv reached the elbow. It is impossible for mo to give any idea of tho agony I went through during tho three years that* this eczema continued. I tried first one remedy and th.cn another, only too glad to test anything that my friends suggested. Nothing seemed to bo of tho least good. 1 went to a doctor for four weeks in tho provinces, where 1 was living at tho timo, and the treatment ho put mo under was as ineffectual us tho rest. I was almost in despair. One day I happened to catch sight of an advertisement of Cuticura Remedies, and tluro I road of a case of eczema having been cured by the v?e of Cuticura Snap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent Pills. The case was so similar to my-own that 1 t hought I would at least make one more try to get my turn ri&nt. I bought the whole treatment of the chemist, and 1 persevered with it for a week. By that time tho improvement was apparent to any ono, and tho rel’sf i felt myself y.a« great. I should not have believed it passible for any remedy to afford such comfort in bo short a time. My experience with the other remedies for eczema —and I should think I tried them ail — enables me to appreciate Cuticura to the full. By the doctors orders I was keeping my arm in r sling for many months, but the sling was soon dispensed with when 1 started with Cuticur I. I persevered with Cuticura Ointment, and Pills for alx>ut a couple of months, using • all two complete treatments, and 1 can tell you candidly and heartily that I was cured. I have occasion to have great faith in Cuticura iu skin ailments, not only because of tho great good it has done me, but because of tho benefit l kn >w 1 is <.'* rued from its use in other casr-fl.
