One of the very bad cases I had to deal with was that of a young woman who had come to us not oulv broken in spirit but in a most awful condition physically. Our doctor examined her and told us that she had scabies (tba Itch), incipient paresis, rheumatism, etc., brought on from exposure and the affects of her ragged-edged life. Her poor body was a mass of tores from scratching and she was not able to retain solid food. We tried many things, a good tonio was prescribed and baths with a rubbing of lard and sulphur. We worked hard for seven weeks and you can imagine bow discouraged we were when, after all that time, we could sea so little improvement. One day I hap pened to see a Cuticura advertisement telling how a little baby had been cured of a bad case of skin eruption, and although I had but ninety-seven cents with ma, I bought a cake of Cuti cura 8oap and a bottle of Cuticura Kesolvent. When I reached home I was flke a child with a new toy, and we bathed our patient well and gave her a full dons of the Resolvent. She slept that night better than she had sinos he had been with us and the next day I located toe prion of a box of Cuticura Ointment. I am not exaggerating when I say that in exactly five weeks this young woman was able to look for a position, being strong enough to work and full of ambition. In another month she left the home, and now has a good position in a nice family where she is respected and is strong and well. You may refer any one you wish to me, personally.
