From Skin Disease from Birth Until
Six Years Old? Father Spent
Fortune on Her Without Benefit
? Old Doctor Suggested Cuti

Months, Leaving
SKiN SOFT AS A BABY'S
AND WITHOUT A SCAR
" I hare a cousin in Rockingham Co.
who once had a skin disease from her
birth until she was six years of age.
Hef father had spent a fortune on her
to get her cured and none of the treat
mentsdid beranvgood. Old Dr. li
suggested that be try the Cuticura Rem
edies which be did. When he com
meneed to use it the child was almost in a
?olid scab. He had used it about tno
months and the child was well. I ?aa
there when they commenced to use your
Cuticura Remedies. I stayed that week
and then returned home and stayed two
weeks and then went back and stayed
with them two week* longer and when
I went home I could hardly believe tho
was the same child. Her skin was as
soft as a baby's without a scar on it. I
have not seen her in seven teen years but
1 have heard from her and the last time
1 heard from her <ihe was well. That is
where I became acquainted with Cuti
cura. I hope this may be of some ser
vice to you in the future. Mrs. W. P.
Ingle, Burlington, N. C, June 16, 1905."
