Two Cases of Eczema and How They Were Cured Further Proof That Dr. Chase's Qintment is a Posi: tive Cure for Chronic Eczema. if you read these letters you will find that Dr. Chase's Ointment is not to be classed among ordinary salves and ointments. By aciyally curing itching, stinging eczema in many thousands of cases it has & most severe test to which a ent can be put. Mr. J. B , Temperance road, Parry d, Ont., writes: "Just a litle to praise Dr. Chase's Ointment for what it has done for my wife. She has been suffering with eczema in her head for two years, and has spent no end of money with doctors and for ointments, which did her no good. She had about given up hope of ever being cured. when. someone told her to try Dr. Chase's Ointment, fafth in it. I have told about the Ointment." ¥ en, Greenspond, writes: "I suffer- ed with eczema on my hands, and for eighteen months was so bad that 1 could not use a needle to sew or do anything. [I could scarcely dress myself. Though I had lots of salves from doctors, I could never get much benefit from them. Then I sent for a supply of Dr. Chase's Ointment, and found. it very different in action. It was not long before my hands be- gan to heal, and four 60c boxes made them well. 1 cannot praise Dr. Chase's Ointment too highly, and fre- quently give some to others to 'get them using it, for I kpow that it will cure." ! : In the hom Dr. Chase's Ointment iis of almost daily usefulness, for by relieving chafing and irritation of the skin it prevents eczema and sim- ilar itching skin diseases. Applied to all cuts and wounds, it prevents blood poisoning and heals the skin. Dr. Chase's Ointment, 60 cents a box, all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co, Ltd., Toronto. Re¥.
