A REMARKABLE LETTER FROM J
TUCKKR. ESQ . MANUFACTURER OF
BAY STATE 8UPERPHOSPHATE.
Messrs Weeks & Potter — Gentlemen: _
think I have paid for medicines and medicat
treatment during th-.‘ last twenty years all of
three thousand dollars, without receiving any
permanent benefit.
Last May woilo taking a Turkishjbaih at 17
Beacon street, a young man employed there by
the name of WmCcrbett induced me to allow
him to apply a preparation that he had upon me.
assuring me that it was perfectly harmless, and
for a certain consideration he would cure me
within thirty days from the time he commenced
In case he failed to do so 1 was to pay him noth’
ing. 1 oui Mints‘d and he applied it nearly every
day for five weeks when the disease entirely
diMI>p8Kl*as I very cneerfuily paid him llm
amount agreed up: n, and then asked him what
tbe remedy w»s. and he replied that it was nouo
other thau Lutacura.
Mince that time 1 have had no trouble from
this disease, and h we not had such good health
in twenty years as I have had during the last
six months.
I have fcinoe my recovery bought Cuticura and
given i: to friends sulf^riLg with skin diseases,
and in every instance it has cured them. 1 be
lieve it to be the greatest remedy of the present
century.
J A TUDjabal.

has served the city m many important capaci
ties. Ho is at present a member of the Ho»rd of

Cuticura Remedies

spent on other remedies have faded to do, and I
do not hesitate to recommend them as first class

Skin and Scalp Diseases should be treated
externally with Cut.’cura, assistod by the Cuti
cura Soap, and Resolvent taken internally, until

Humors are confined to the Blood, and do not
show themselves on the surface, tho Resolvent
alone will speedily drive them rom the system.
The Cuticura Remedies infallibly cure the most
loath-ome cases of Scrofulous aud Skin aud
Scalp Humors, as is attested by hundreds of
un.-oJicited testimonials in our possession.
