The common chronic skin diseases are OF
three classes: First, these that cause pus-
tules; second, those that cause scaly or
branny skin; third, those that cause pimples-
The first, on pustular skin diseases, can be
easily recognized, as they always produce
pus, Tor matter, as 10 is often called. Large
yellew pustules, boils, carbuncles, skin Ill
GERS, syphilitc skin diseases, buboes, chan
cres, are common examples of the pustular
variety of skin diseases Those who are
subject to boils, sore lips, styes or red eye
lids, running at the ears are of the same
class, and are cured by the same treatment.
treat great number of this class of skin
affections every year, and 1 invariably pre-
scribe La-cu-pi-a. La-cu-pi-a can be de-
pended on every time, and no other medi-
cine Is required, except when the bowels are
constipated. Man-a-lin should be used also.
The scaly (Squamous) skin affections in
,clude salt rheum (exzema), scald head,
cracked lips and chapped hands, and they
all Indicate bad condition of the blood.
La-cu-pi-a, the greatest constitutional rene
dy have ever known. strikes at the root of
this class of affections by purifying the blood
and cleansing the whole system. That most
stubborn affection of scald head in babies
have never known La-cu-pi-a to fail to cure.
1t can be relied upon to permanently cure
| all skin diseases due to blood COMMUNICATIONS
or constitutional taints. 1t greatly assists
and hastens the action of La-cu-pi-a to keep
the bowels regular by using some good laxa-
tive. The one l have found to be the most
reliable is Man-a-lin, which works splendid
| ly with La-cu-pi-a.
The third class of skin affections, or those.
that produce pimples, include some very
common, everyday annoyances. Hives
and pricky heat are examples of the more
acute variety of pimpular skin diseases.
There are many people who have red PIN
| pies on the face, between the shoulders and
on the shoulder blades, which are worse at
times than others, but are always great
Disagreement and source of discomfort.
Another quite common trouble, especially
of young people of both sexes is the appear
ance of pimples on the face which contain q
cheesy substance, and when forced out has
| a close resemblance to a small worm or grub,
which many people really suppose them to
be. These are often black at the end, which
makes them doubly unsightly additions to
the youthful complexion. This class Of
pimples are called by the medical works
''acne punctata," and disgusting as it is to
be victim of it, yet it is worse to have to
endure another too common variety, called
'acne rosacer" No one can mistake it for
any other affection, as it thickens and red
dens the nose, and sometimes the cheeks al
so. Because of the frequency in which in
temperate habits has been the cause of this
form of acne, it has often been called rum
BLOSSOM" but many people of temperate
habits are so afflicted.
Pe-rr-na and Man-a-ln are the remedies
that will not dssapoint anyone who will
give them fair trial. This class of skin
troubles are all dependent OH sluggishness
of the excretory ducts, especially those of
the skin. Pe-ru-na hastens the expulsion
from the system of all effete matter, which,
if allowed to clog up the millions of tiny
ducts of the skin, will produce pimples.
Pe-ru-na will produces clear complexion
and smooth skin. Many young people about
the age Ofpuberty are anxiously trying every
remedy which is reputed to remove the an
noying pimples so common TO that age, but
rarely find any relief. feel sure that Pc
ru-na and Man-a-lin will never dssapoint
any such person by any reasonable use of ii
the Man-a-in to be taken in sufficient
doses to slightly stimulate the action of the
bowels, and Pe-ru-na taken exactly as di-
rected on the bottle, should not be doing
them justiceif spoke less positive language,
for years of experience with them has taught
me that they are practically no failures.
