THE TREATMENT

Of dis ases of the skin scalp has been for centuries
based upon the mistaken theory that they are entire
ly due to Some impurty of the blood No special at
tenton has been directed to the important mart
the sweat and fat glands play in the propa alton and
maintenance of the disease
II ID no unjust reflection upon the medical profess
sion to say that its Ctfots i'll the cure of skin dir
eases have been II failure. What with mistaken theo-
ries, poisonous remedies, and blind adherence 10
methods and practice originating in ignorance and
superstition, salt rheum, scald head and psoriasis
flourish and increase upon systems shattered by the
copious use, both internal and external, of mercury
arsenic, zinc and lead.
For centuries il has been the popular notion that
diseases OF the skin or scalp must be cured If cured
at all, by purifying the blood
Admitting that this is partly true, what has been
the method or what the remedies by which il was
sought to be accomplished?
