"One day we noticed. that our little

soi-es. Wo first noticed it 'on his little
hands. His hands wore not an bad
then, and wo didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard of the.Cutlcurfr'" ^medics beine

went to tho drug store and purchased
a box of Cuticura Soap and one box o {
Cuticura Ointment, and that night 1
stripped my little boy and took the
Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and
washed him well. Then I dried him
with ? soft bath towel, and took the
Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him
thoroughly with it. I did this every
evening before I put him to bed and in
three or four nights be was entirely
cured. You havo my permission to
