11l Baby Dreadful Sufferer. Could Not Keep Him from Scratching. Every Joint Affected. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and He Is Well, "Enclosed find my son's photo and I feel by writing these few lines to you I am only doing my duty, us my son was a dreadful sufferer from eczema. At the, age of two weeks he began to get covered with red spots on his legs and groins, which mother thought was red gum or thrush; but day by day it grew worse until every joint and crevice were affected and baby started screaming for hours day and night, such a tiling as sleep was out of tha question. I took him to two of Sydney's leading doctors; one said it was one of the worst cases he had seen, the other did not think it so serious; one ordered ointment for rubbing in, the other a dusting powder. I followed their prescriptions for over four months and still baby kept getting worse. I could not keep him from scratching so great was his agony. "When he was five months old I tried the Euticura Remedies and X am very thankful to say my baby is to-day free from all his suffering. His groins were bleeding when I started and other parts affected were the lower part of his body, under the knee 3, arms, in arm Joints, eyebrows and neck; but after twice using Cuticura Ointment I began to see a difference and by the time I had used one tin, along with the bathing with Cuticura Boap, baby was nearly cured. I still kept oa using the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and now, thank goodness, he is quite well and, although he is now ten months old, lias not had any further return of the trouble."
