Prof Woodbury. revolutionizcd the science
He advanced the extremely radical opinion
thnt birthmarks or moles should be treated by
penetration; that they could be reduced to
| such a state that they would take on scab
and that when the scab fell the birthmark OF
whatever the Disagreement might be, would
| necessarily disappear. This was sweeping
| declaration, and old forms and practices were
shattered by it. Yet 1t was true solution OF
the riddle. He uses no scalpel, nothing more
than a harmless lotion, which changes the
birthmark into an ordinary scab. Many OF the

prominent New Jersey banker, which is worthy
OF especial consideration, since 1t shows the
deep interest of the writer In the physician
who cured him. The banker, after reciting,
like hundreds of other correspondents, how he
had been cured of several very ugly marks on
his face, suggests that the Professor write q
book on DerInatology. He says he could not
do better thing for humanity. His volume
would arouse public interest in the great sci
ence, and those who have for years believed
that they must live all their life with Grim
son birthnark on their face would take cour-
age and no doubt eventually be relieved OF
their blemishes. The banker is not, however,
aware that Prof. Woodbury. has already writ
ten a very Instructive treatise of 1io pages on
the subject, and which any one may obtain by
reinittlng 10 cents TO his address. Prof. Wood
