BABY WASTED TO SKELETON.

In Torment) with Terrible Sores on Face and Body—Tore at FleshCured by Cutlcura. “My little son, when about a year and a half old began to have sores come out on his face. They began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton and was hardly able to walk. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of Cutlcura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since, and only for the Cutlcura Remedies my precious child would have died from these terrible sores. I used only one cake of Soap and about three boxes of Cutlcura Ointment Mrs. Egbert Sheldon, R. F. D. No. 1, Woodville, Conn., April 22, 1905.”
