Healetl_lpiulicm. “When my little girl was three years old she had an eruption on her face, neck and arms which we were told was ringworm. We had her treated but the inflammation spread and became worse. The skin was always peeling off and some- times bled and cracked. For weeks she hardly slept, and she became thin and irritable, nervous snd restless. “* A doctor recommended Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The Ointment brought almost instant relief, and within six weeks she was healed.” (Signed) Mrs. C. C. Miner, Rock- wood, Colo., June 22, 1933. Use Cuticura to clear your skin. ’ . 32x6.00-20 . . . .
