BATHING AND ITS EFFECTS

A late number of the Medical and
Surgical Journal utters the opinion that
once week is often enough 10 balhe

to the skin at all seasons is proper, and
is infinitely more heallhful than all the
daily baths now so fashionable. The
argument by which the opinion is sup.
ported is ss follows: THE oil which
is secreted by the sebaceous glands OF
the skin, serves the purpose lubricatine
its surface. Now, if this secretion i:
constantly removed as fast as exuded
