A New Back far an Old One How it
In Done In Alaska
The back aches at times with a dull,
indescribable feeling, making you
weary and restless: piercing pains shoot
across the reyior of the kidneys, and
again the loius are so lame to stoop is
agony. No use to rub or apply a poster
to the baci in this condition. You can
not reach the cause. Excha-ge the bad
back for a new and stronger ono.
.Mrs. J. \V. Keen, of 233 Eastlake

no reason to change the' opinion of
Doan's Kidney Fills that I expressed jo

A THOUSAND THANKS
TO CUTICURA REMEDIES
"For over thirty-five years I was a
severe sufferer from eciema. The erup
tion was not confined to any one place.
It was all over my body, limbs,
and even on my head. I am sixty
years old and an old soldier, and have
been examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they said
there was no cure for me. I have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doctors,
without avail. A short time ago I
decided to try the Cuticura Remedies,
and after using two cakes of Cuticura
Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment,
and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent,
two treatments in all, I am now well
and completely cured. A thousand
thanks to Cuticura. I cannot speak
too highly of the Cuticura Remedies.

That Cuticura Soap is the best baby
soap in the world for cleansing and
purifying the skin, and that Cuticura
Ointment is of priceless value for
soothing and healing itching, tortur
ing, and disfiguring eruptions. A single
application of Cuticura Ointment, pre
ceded by a warm bath with Cuticura
Soap, gives instant relief, and refreshing
sleep for skin-tortured babies, and rest
for tired mothers. Bathe the af
fected parts with hot water and Cuti
cura Soap, to cleanse the surface of
crusts and scales and soften the thick
ened cuticle; dry without hard rub
bing, and apply Cuticura Ointment
freely, to allay itching and inflamma
tion, and soothe and heal.
