RESINOL FOR
BAD RINGWORM
New York, March 9. 1914: "A rash
formed on my forehead and com
menced spreading. It was a ring
worm. The itching and burning
which I endured for four months be
fore I commenced using Resinol Soap
and Resinol Ointment were terrible.
AH my classmates kept away from me

used every home remedy I could think
of, but with no success. My family
doctor advised me to use Resinol Soap
and Resinol Ointment. The moment
I applied them I felt a cooling sensa
tion which was lasting—the relief was
quick. I used two Jars of Resinol
Ointment, and Resinol Soap, and was
linally rid of the pest. To-day there
isn't a single mark to show where I
had the disease." (Signed) M. G.
