Nothing subdues flery skin eruptions 50 _quickly, says a noted skin specialist.. The moment this sulphor preparation. is atplied the itching stops and after two or three applications, the eczema is gone and the skin is delightfolly clear and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as a skin remedy because it destroys the parasites that cause the burning, itching or disfig- urement. Mentho-Sulphur always heals eczema right up.
