The minuate this soothing and great healing Ointment touches your inflamed, irritated skin—-you obtain blessed comfort. Generally you need only a few applications to completely end this distressing condition. Always have Peterson’s Ointment on hand. Can’t beat it for quickly healing chafed, irritated, erupted skin, for eczema and bad cases of pimples and blackheads. H. A. Daniels of Hartford, Conn., writes: “For 6 months I was bothered with Eczema—it would itch so I could tear it to pieces. I had lotions and different Ointments which did no good. I saw your ad in the Hartford Times and I went and got a box of Peterson’s and in one night it almost disappeared.” The mighty healing power of Peterson’s Ointment overcomes Eczema and one 35c box will prove it—all drug stores.—Advertisement.
