deprivation of salt would produce dis

it initiates the stomach and intestines
and sometimes purges. Those who use
salt unusually freely almost always
suffer more or less from constipation.
To drink large quantities of water
daily should be tie rulo with those who
suffer from constipation. Each day the

TREATMENT OF BOlLS.
The Predis posing Cause Of Several Kin

The Predis posing Cause Of Several Kinds
of Jobs Comforters
The predisposing cause of boils IS a
lowering of the health at some point
In the opinion of many students of dis
ease the immediate cause is microbe,
which finds its way into some gland of
the skin, where it sets up peculiar in
Illumination. Generally the gland is an
oil gland. In the armpits it is a sweat
gland. On the eyelid, where the boil is
known as ''sty." it is gland of still
| another sort
The first indication of boil is slight
itching, followed by reddish pi,nple
| with hair in the center. Sometimes
| the pulling out OF this hair will are st
the development of the sore. As the
pimple grows. the redness extends and
becomes more intense, and the part be-
gins to throb with pain. In about five
days 1t breaks, pus oozes out, the pain
abates, and soon after the dead tissue
the so-called ''core''-escapes followed
by rapid healing. Sometimes no core
appears, nor does the boil suppurate.
This is known as the ''blind boil" II
is very hard and painful, and is long in
healing.
Sometimes malignant form of boil
appears on the head or neck. or especial
~ on the lip. At first it resembles an
ordinary boil. but it gives rise to bl>,od
poison, and after extreme suffering ID
fatal in about five DAYS.
A carbuncle somewhat resembles q
boil. but is much larger and more pain
full. 1t tends to spread and has sever al
openings 1t produces great disturb b.
ance OF the whole system, and is very
dangerous in its tendency. The consti,u.
tional symptoms of boils are slight,
! though in some cases there may be cen
siderable feverishness.
The treatment should be, in the first
place. constitutional, aiming to restore
the vigor of the system. The diet
| should be generous, without excess, and
easily digestible. The patient, while
| avoiding exhaustion, should take a
proper amount of exercise, have an
abundance of pure air, and wash his
body daily with cool water and soap.
Local treatment also, is needed. To
arrest the progress of boil at its early
stage, Sir Erasmus Wilson advises the
application of solution of sugar of lead
every six or twelve hours with camel's-
| hair brush. If this fails, he would pro-
mote suppuration by spreading on it q
wash-leather plaster of galbanum and
opium, cut in the middle for the escape
| of the pus.
If the pain continues to increase, he
would apply soothing applications.
When the boil begins to heal, he would
keep the skin around it dry, clean II
with tar soap, and smear it with yellow
resin ointment, dressing the broken
surface with lint spread with the same
ointment keeping the dressing in posi-.
ton with strips of adhesive plaster o,
by a light bandage. Compan.
