Md. — *‘My children were afflicted with what they called ring worm of the scalp contracted from a house-cat they were playing with. The ringworm formed on their scalps about the size of a stlrer dollar and their hair fell out, leaving a round scale or crust on their scalps. Their hair fell out in round spots. There was terrible Itching and they scratched till the blood came. They were very fretful and could not sleep at night and they were very cross. “They were treated for several months with no improvement, whatsoever. Instead of improving they were getting worse and the ringworm was spreading and getting larger. I was told they would never have any hair and would always be bald. Then I began using Cuticura Soap in connection with Cuticura Ointment and the first week I could see the wonderful remedies were doing all they were claimed to do and in six weeks' time they were entirely cured. They all have a beautiful growth of hair." (Signed) Mrs. Sadie Pollock. Jan. 1, 1913. Cuticura Soap and Ointment do so much for pimples, blackheads, red. rough and oily skins.
