and then, unless I could lie down at once I
would fall wherever 1 was. I never dared to bo

Followed Without Benefit.
I am sixty-six years old. In August, WO, was
troubled with the peculiar sUindiseiuio to which
people of my age aro subject, known amouK
medical men as eczema. Its tirst appearance
was ip. .ii i he ankles. It rapidly extended over
the lower extremities until my legs were nearly
one raw sore; from legs the trouble extended
across the hips, shoulders and the entire length
of the arms, the legs and arms greatly swollen
with an itching, burning pain, without cessation.
Although the best medical adviceattalnable was
-1 ii 1 loyed, no less than live physicians of the
dace being consulted and the prescriptions
icing the result of their combined wisdom, the
disease, though apparently checked, would recur
in a few days as bail as ever ; during its progress
my weight fell away about twenty-five pounds.
As an experiment 1 began the useof Cuticuba,
following the simple and plain Instructions
given with the Remedies, and in four weeks
Found myself well, with skin soft and natural
