wnen scratcnea it, it would bleed and become -yery core: I tried almost everything for the i ironing but none gave me much relief. I could scarcely sleep as the itching was always worse- at night. My hands were so sore I dreaded putting in water and after I would wash dishes or do laundry, work that required the use of other soaps they were always worse. -This went on for about six months. Then I used Cuticura 8oap and Cuticura Ointment, and in two or three weeks the trouble all disappeared.

I always found that my hands were worse (with a dry scale on them) after using any cheap soap but the Cuticura Soap produced such a soothing feeling on my skin that it was a pleasure to use it. I also know what wonders the Cuticura Remedies have done for a friend of mine, so I would recommend them to any one. Mrs. Delaware 611 King Wilmington. Nov.
