Sho broko out all over her body with a
humor, and we used everything recom

three doctors, they all claimed they could
help her. but she continued to grow
worse. Her body was a mass of sores,
and her little face was being eaten
away. Her ears looked as if they
would drop off. Neighbors advised me
to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
before I had used half of the cake of
Soap and box of Ointment the sores had
all healed, and my littlo one's face and
body were as clear as a new-born babe's.
