It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated facial and other disfigurement of years' standing. The terrible itching attending ec zema is stopped with the first application, giving proof of its curative properties at the very outset. In less serious skin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne, barber's Itch, etc., results show after an avernight application only a small quantity being required to effect a cure. A muddy or sallow complexion is noticeably improved by a single application. Those who use poslam for these minor skin troubles can now avail themselves of the special 50-cent package, recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and regular $2 Jar may now be obtained In Hammond at J. W. Wets', 99 State street and other leading drug stores.
