Baby Dreadful Sufferer. Could Not , Keep Him from Scratching. Every Joint Affected. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and He Is Well, "Enclosed find ray son's photo and I feel by writing these few lines to you I am only doing my duty, as my son was a dreadful sufferer from eczema. At A the age of two weeks he - M began to get covered with ' *• / red spots on his legs and _"v. groins, which mother ' thought was red gum or \ thrush; but day by day it grew worse until every _*iM, -v joint and crevice were /wy affected and baby started hJh \ screaming for- hours day 5" \l\ %. and night, such a thing J as sleep was out of the question. I took him to ro of fciydney's leading doctors; one said it is 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 f»r over four months and still baby kept getting J worse. I could not keep him from scratching ! so great was his a»ony. j " When he was five months old I tried the ' Suticura Remedies and lam very thankful to |' say my baby is to-dav free from all his suffering. His groins were bleeding when I started and other parts affueted were the lower part of his body, under the knees, arms, in arm joints, eyebrows and neck; but after favice using Cuticura Ointment I began to see a difference and by tile time I had used one tin, along with the bathing with Cuticura Soap, 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, has not had any further return of the trouble."
