! SUFFERED AGONIES
FOR FOUR YEARS
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
? Tried Different Physicians and
All Kinds of Ointments ? Could
Walk Only With Crutches? Ohio
Man Says :
"CUTICURA REMEDIES
THE BEST ON EARTH"
"In the year 1899 the side of my
right foot was cut off from the little
toe down to the heel, and the physician
w4jo had charge of me
was tiring to sew up
the side of my foot,
but with no success.
When he found out
that wouldn't work,
he began trying to
heal the wound with
all kindsof ointment,
until at last my whole
foot and way up
above mv calf was
nothing but proud
flesh. 1 suffered un
told agonies for four years, and tried
different physicians and all kinds of oint
ments. I could walk only with crutches.
It is sixteen months ago since I began
using Cuticura Soap and Ointment for
my limb and foot. The first two
months Vhe Cuticura Remedies did not
seem to work, bur I kept on using them
both. In two weeks afterwards I saw a
change in my limb. Then I began using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment often dur
ing the day and kept it up for seven
months, when my limb was healed up
just the same as if 1 never had trouble.
"It is eight months now since I
stopped using Cuticura Remedies, the
best on God's earth. I am working
at the present day, after five years
of suffering. The cost of Cuticura
Ointment and Soap was only SO;
but the doctors' bills were more like
$000. You can publish my name and
refer any one to write to me about
Cuticura Remedies. I will answer all
letters if postage is enclosed. John M.
