Little Girl's Obstinate Case of
Eczema ? Instantaneous Relief :
By Cuticura ? Little Boy's Hands
and Arms Also Were a Has?
of Torturing Sores ? Grateful
Mother Says:
"CUTICURA REMEDIES :
A HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"
'*In reply to your letter I write you
my experience, and you are privileged,
to use it as you see fit. Last yew,
after having my littie girl treated by &
very prominent physician for fcnobati
nate case of eczema, I resorted to the
Cuticura Remedies, and was so well
pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the
physician's prescription and relied en
tirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment, and Cuticura Puis. When
we commenced with the Cuticura Rem
edies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about sis weeks
we had her completely well, and there
has been no recurrence of the trouble.
"In July of this vear a little boy in
our family poisoned liis hands and aims
with poison oak, and in twenty-four
hours nis hands and arms were a mass
of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands |
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and |
anointed them with the Cuticura Oint- j
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks hie j
hands and arms healed up; so we have |
lots of cause for feeling grateful for the I
Cuticura Remedies. We find that the i
Cuticura Remedies are a- valuable j
household standby, living aa we do
twelve miles from a doctor, and wbaa
it coats from twenty to tw
lars to come up on the Tttmsitta.

A Haw Back for an Old One How It
la Done in Alaafca
The back aches at times with a dull,
Indescribable feeling', making' you
weary and restless: piercing pains shoot
across the regior of the kidneys, and
again the loins are so lame tcr stoop is
agony. No use to rub or apply a plaster
to tbe back in this condition. You can
not reach the cause. Excha-ge the bad
back for a new and stroi ger one.
Mrs. J. W. Keen, of ;!33 Eastlake
Ave., Seattle, Wash., cava: "I have had
no reason to change the opinion of
Doan's Kidney Fills :hut I expressed in
January 1903, in which I spoke ofDoun's
Kidney Pills as a remedy that could be
entirely relied upon iti tha treatment of
kidney troubles and backache. Over
exertion or taking cold always aggra
rated tba disease in my case and I suff
ered from it more or less for four or live
years. No other medicine hut Doan's
Kidney Pil's ever gave meaty noiict
able relief but wben I began using
Down's Kidney Pills, I got eucn quick
and permanent relief that I have had [
no hesitation since then in recommend
ing the remedy to other sufferers. "
