Medicine Did no Good ? Cured at
Expense of only $1.25 and Now
THANKS CUTICURA
FOR COMPLETE CURE
"Some time ago I wrote you for a
book on the Cuticura Remedies and
received it O. K. and went and bought
the Soap, Ointment, and Pills. They did
me more good than any medicine I ever
used. They cured me of my skin disease,
and I am very thankful to you. My
trouble was eruption of the skin, which
broke out in spots all over my body,
and eau.-ed a continual itching which
nearly drove me wild at times. 1 got
medicine of a doctor, but it did not cure
me, and when 1 saw in a paper voup
ad., I sent to you for the Cuticura book
and I studied my case in it. 1 then
went to the drug store and bought one
cake of Cuticura Soap, ono box of Cu
ticura Ointment, and one vial of Cuti
cura Pills. From the first application
I received relief. 1 used the first set
and two extra cakes of Cuticura Soap,
and was completely cured. I had
suffered for two years, and I again
thank Cuticura for my cure._ If you
wish, you may publish this. You*
friend forever, ClaudeX. Johnson, Maple
