Mrs, Ann McDonald, Kingsville, Ont.,
writes:-" For about three years was a
dreadful sufferer from eczema. At times
the patches a raw, flamieg flesh would
extend from my waist to my neck and
from the knees to the ankles. The intense
Itching almost drove me crazy and though
I tried all the local physaciana they could
not evea relieve tlae suffering The &sit
would erack open, and I don't believe any-
one ever stiffered more than I did.
"I was told of Dr, Chase's Ointment
but did not believe that it could help me.
After the filth application of this prepare -
tion, began to ieel the bentht of its
soothing, lataling effects, and now attribute
a cure to the persistent use of this wonder.
al remedy, It is trulY worth it weight
la gold and I never tire of recommendine
it to other sufferers."
Besides being a thorough cure for
eczema and sett rheum, Dr. Chase's Oint-
team comes useful in a hundred ways in
every honse for every farm of skin irrita-
tion •and eruption, chapped skill and
