How TO REMOVE TATTOO MARKs.-The
example of the Duke of York. the future
King OF England, who has had some eIab-
crate designs tattooed on his arm, is said
to have set the English aristocracy wild
and tattooing has become the rage. On
the other hand there are MANY people
who have submitted themselves to this
needle-and-ink decoration who have out
lived their pride in it, and who feel rather
ashamed than otherwise of what they
formerly looked upon as a distinction.
For the benefit of such, a medical CORE
spondent tells how tattoo marks may be
removed. The marks are painted over
with a concentrated solution of tannin
Afterward, by means of fine needles series
of plckings is made over the tattooed de-
sign, and over the surface thus picked is
passed a stick of nitrate of silver. At the
end OF few minutes the black pickings
previously made become detached, and the
superficial layers of skin are charged with a
tannate of silver. In order that the process
may be perfectly successful this surface
must be powdered with tannin for two or
three days. At the end of that time the
lntiammatory action has almost subsidized
and the picked parts turn black forming a
thin crust, very adherent to the deeper
skin, but painless. In fourteen or fifteen
days the scab falls off, and in its place is
seen superficial red mark, which gradu-
ally fades away until, at the end of few
months, all signs Of coloration disappear.
VI course antlseptlc precautions are duly
taken IN performing this operation. The
old tattoo needle is the best thing it can be
done with. DR.. Ballot suggests that
bloxalate of potassium is even better for
the purpose of tattoo marks removal than
nitrate of silver.
