By Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Doctor Calle- !t "the Itch," She Could Not Sleep end Used to Scratch Herself to Pieces. "I baa a young oaoy icu in my care about two years ago, and the child caught a very evere form of skin disease. .She 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 ciiiid tiiat much, tnat she could not sleep night or day, ;.nd she used to scratch herself to pieces. Dven in her Bleep, she would scratch. So 1 took her to the doctor after trying a patent ointment, and he told me it \>as a very contagious disease, called the itch. I kept gome to e doctor, but nothing he gave me seemed .„ 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 —id appl'ed it. I found that it seemed to jol the affected parts at once, so I procured a pot of Cuticura Ointment and a cake of Cuticura Soap, and bathed the child ail over with 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 seemed to ease or cure it, till I tried the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, then she Beemed to got ease directly it was applied and I continued to apply it till the trouble disanpeared entirely and she was entirely rure'd hv the Cuticura Moan and Ointment.
