Application of Cuticura Remedies

I am never without Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. Last summer my skin broke out in July and worsened despite baths and other remedies. My hair fell out and my scalp itched constantly, especially at night. After four weeks of nightly baths and Cuticura Ointment, I improved and was entirely cured after four boxes. Hair stopped falling, dandruff disappeared, scalp stayed clean, and I continue using Cuticura on my face after shaving. D. E. Blankenship, 319 N. Delaware St., Indianapolis.
