By Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Doctor Called It "the Itch." She Could Not Sleep and Used to Scratch Herself to Pieces, "I had a young baby left in ray care about two years ago, ami the chilil caught a very severe form of skin disease. Kite was only a few months old when the skin disease first appeared on her body just like little water blisters under the skin, and it used to irritate the child that much, that she could not sleep night or day, and she used to scratch herself to pieces. Even in her sleep, she would scratch. So T the doctor after trying a pat and he told me it was a very contagious disease, called the itch. I kept going to the doctor, but nothing he gave me seemed to do the child any good, so 1 took her to another doctor and he gave me every possible kind of ointment that he could prescribe, but it all did no good. "Then I saw one of the Cuticura advertisements and I at once sent for a sample and applied it. I found that it seemed to cool the affected parts at once, so I procured a pot of Cuticura Ointment and a cake of Cuticura Soap, and bathed the child all over Willi warm water and then applied the Cuticura Ointment. In a few days I was astonished at the difference, the more so, because the child had been suffering so long, for twelve months, and such a state she was in. The whole of her body and even her head was affected. It is six months since I left off using the Cuticura Remedies, and she hasn't had a sign of the trouble since. "I had tried everything for it, but nothing Beemed to case or cure it, till I tried the and I continued to apply it till the trouble disappeared entirely and she was entirely cured bv the Cuticura Roan and Ointment."
