WHY SALVES FAIL TO CURE ECZEMA. They Clog the Pores—Only a Liquid Can Reach the Inner Skin. Since the old-fashioned theory of curing eczema through the blood has been given up by scientists, many different salves have been tried for skin diseases. But it has been found that these salves only clog the pores and can not penetrate to the Inner skin below the epidermis where the eczema germs are lodged. This- —the quality of penetrating —probably explains the tremendous success of the only standard liquid eczema cure, oil of wintergren as compounded in D. D. D. Prescription. After ten years of cure after cure, the world’s leading skin specialts have accepted this as the true eczema cure. We ourselves do not hesitate to recommend D. D. D. Prescription at SI.OO a bottle, but for the benefit of those who have never tried the prescription, we have arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for a special large trial bottle at 26 cents on a special offer now. This flrst bottle ought to convince every sufferer, and, at any rate, it will surely take away the Itch at once.— B. F. Fendig, Rensselaer, Ind.
