My sufferings might have been sto ped if I
had only known of your .CUTICCBA gamma
eighteen years ago. I contracted the fever and
ague, and it efiected my kidneys so badly that I
had to have an o cration, from which resulted
blood poison, an I suffered untold agonies. To
make my sufferings more, my left leg below the
knee broke out in large blood boils, and corn-
menced a seal , itching irritation, so that at
times I was a most frantic, and would scratch
until the blood would trickle down my leg. In
the summer these large bails would commence,
during which time I would have three or tour
which were so ainful that at times I was for
to take to my ed. Every Winter a. dry itchin
seal mass would gather on my leg, which wit
the oils, seemed to effect my whole system.
During all this time, a. period of three to nine
months, I had doctor after doctor, but the gave
me on] temporary relief. This last fall com-
mence using our CUTICUBA, CUTICURA SOAP,
and CUTICURA ESOLVENT, and now the scales
have all gone, the itching all gone, I have not
felt sick, and have worke all Winter. I would
not suffer again as I have for the past eighteen
years for anythin . I had doctors from the
west to the east, to no purpose. I have not
felt so well or been so long Without a sick spell
since taking your remedies. Thanks to them
and to you, and the great Maker of mankind
for my retuminghealt .
