"My little son, when about a year
and a half old, began to have sores
oomc out on his face. I had a phy
sician treat him,
but the sores grew
wirso. Then they
O began to come on
'&?/ his arms, then on
\ I other parts of his
fy,- body, and then one
/f\ - >/X\ came on his chest,
c worse than the
<7 ftTZfim others. Then I call
ed another physi
cian. Still he grew worse. At the end
of about a yenr nnd a half of -niffcring
he grew so bad I had to tie his hands
in cloths at night to keep him from
scrat -hing the sores and tearing the flesh.
"He got to be a mere skeleton, and
was hardly able to walk. My Aunt
advi=ed me k> try CutiQHra Soap and
Ointment, So great was her faith in
it that she gave me a small piece of
Soap to try and ft little of the Oint
ment. I took.it home without any
faifli, but to please her I tried it. and
it se emed to dry up the sores a little.
"I sent to the drug store and got a
cake of the Soap and 3 bos of the
Ointment and followed the directions,
and at the end of about two months
the sores were all well. He has
never had any sores of any kind since.
" lie is now strong and healthy,
and I ran sincerely say that only for
your most wonderful remedies my
precious child would have died from
those terrible sores. I used onlv one
cake of Soap and about three boxes

"With pleasure." replied Cham, "but
on one condition." .
"And that Is"? queried Blondin.
"That I shall c.uiy you on my back,"
answered Cham.
"Xot if I know myself." answered
Blondin.
"Ah." triumphantly exclaimed Cham,
"tills time. >1. Biondlii, It Is you who
