FRECKLES.

A correspondent ndicules the claim that Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is remedy for freckles. He thinks the following adver- tisement "absurd :"
 Freedom from freckles and from all such disfgurements and blemishes, follows the use of the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt. It clears and freshens the skin won derfully-takes away that dull and mottled look that comes from stomach Arrangements. Besides being a purgative and an eliminative, the Sprudel is a decided alterative or blood puri- fer. It is the prescribed remedy, even in chronic and stubborn cases of eczema and such dis orders"
 I take the occasion to say that there is much apprehension concerning freckles and their treatment. Women who have suffered year after year from these annoying blemishes are wont to consider them due to the rays of the sun. Nothing can be more illogical. Yet from time to time physicians have ventured the same explanation. One authority on dermatology has declared that freckles are due to too much iron in the blood, and that the sun brings the iron-stained spots to the sur face much as they do to bit of cloth which has come in contact with iron, and then is exposed to the sunlight. In other words, that freckles are zr0n rnst, and that eradication may best be by a lotion.
 Nowthe real fact is that the sun does not produce freckles, and that all the topical treat ment is useless. This may be proved from the fact that they rarely, if ever, appear in children under the age of six, even though they run in exposure to the bronzing influence of the sun all day. Again, they do not appear in many girls who are out-of- doors most of the time, and do appear in others who work in- doors and do not face the sun once a week.
 It is not the sun or the air that causes them, but 1t is the disordered stomach, liver and kidneys. Wherever we find freckles we find such disorder. AS the Carlsbad Sprudel Water or Salt restores these organs to health, so they remedy the freckles. Instead of being "ab- surd, no treatment could be more rational.
