;URE OF ITCH IN HALF AN HOUR.

JUNE Of llC1 IN halt hN hO'''
This desease, we learn, is prevailing In
some parts of the Country; and we cheeriully
comply with the request of one OF our most
experienced aud skilful physicians in pub
fishing the following, which is recommended
as sovereign cure
DR.. E. Smith, at meeting Of the London
Medical Society, called attention TO an article
in the Gazette Hebdomadair, by DR.. BOur-
guignon, in which is confirmation OF the
value Of the treatment of itch, In Belgium,
by sulphur, combined with lime, in liquid
form. The remedy is prepared by boiling
one part of quick lime with two parts OF sui
lined sulphur, in ten parts of water, until
the two former are perfectly united. during
the boiling it must beconstantly stirred with
o piece of wood, and, when the sulphur and
lime have combined, the fluid is to be decan-
ted and kept in we'll stoppered bottle.
pint of the liquid is sufficient for the cure OF
several cases. 1t is sufficient to wash the body
we'll with warm water, and then to rub the
LIQUID into the skin for half an hour. As
the fluid evaporates a layer of sulphur is left
upon the skin. During the half hour the
acarus is killed, and the PATIENTS cured. 1t
is only needful then to wash the body well
and to use clean clothes. In Belgium, the
treatment is introduced by first rubbing the
body for half an hour with black soap; but
this does not appear to be necessary. The
only essential act is that Of the careful ap-
plicatior of the fuid sulphur. The lime is
of no importance in the treatment, except to
render the sulphur soluble, and such would
probably be the case if potass or soda were
employed. which is an improvement upon the
mode of application of sulphur in substance
with lard, as the more ready absorption OF
the remedy, and consequently the more Ger
tain destruction of the insect, by using sui
phur in a fluid form. In so disgusting
disease, it must be Of great moment to be able
to cure it in half an hour.-Dubln Ned.
