PREVENTION OF SKIN DISEASE.

Bear in mind that in all cases cleanliness is an

disease, and the proper means OF cleaning .he skin
Is by the free Of soft water and a first class

in preventing well curing skin disease
Those parts of the skin that are constantly
exposed to the weather, the hands and the face
should be soaped and washed over four or five
times daily. The rest Of the body from twice
to thrice weekly.

of skin disease rob life Of all its pleasure.

Your peace of mind would have ceased at once had
you been told that YOU soon to have face
covered with pimples, Of all Sorts shapes and

Have You ever realized that diseased or dis

accident, tends to degrade the one afflicted ?

ing spirit of envy, learns to hate all those whose

CAUSES OF SKIN DISEASE.

Now, what causes disease Of the skim
Right here 1 want to answer this question in
such n way that you will never forget it.
While some forms Of skin disease arc contagious,
and are taken from those affected, the majority of
all skin affections are Drought about from impure

When PERSONS blood is rich and pure and free
from every faint and poison there will never be
found In the skin any form of chronic disease.
So We will start out by understanding thor
oughly what disease Of the skin is-a manifesto
ton that the blood contains something that don't
belong in it, and that something is a poison to
the system that must be gotten out before the skin
will clear up and assume its natural condition.
The blood may be poisoned in several ways. Thus,
those suffering from skin disease may have In.
herited from their parents or ancestors taints and
vices OF constitution that will show themselves
in the form Of skin diseases and eruptions, or tho

THE TREATMENT THAT CURES.

II was the old practice In treating diseases of
the skin TO rely entirely the Of oIutments
and salres that We're applied TO the surface. En-
pcIiencn has taught that local applica IONS to
the skin alone may give relief for the time being
but never produce cure in long-stRndng cases.
The diseases which attack the skin break out
and destroy the outer covering. This outer
ering OF the skin is known The Derma, and Is
made of skin cells that overlap another like
the shingles on house roof. These scales on
the surface as a protection for the sensitive skin

nerves of the under skin exposed, the air iri-

cations in the way OF ointments and salves are

1t is announced at Madrid that the royal

administrative reforms for Cuba and Porto

Although the elections in Spain osten-

keep in touch with Spanish politics that
Canovas fully intends to use his majority
to pass a tolerably comprehensive scheme
OF reforms for the island. He is under
stood to have become convinced that this
is necessary, and to believe that he is now
strong enough to do it. 1t is evident, from
all accounts of elections, that this popular
excitement about Cuba has reacted with
most disastrous disorganizing effects ON
the Spanish domestic politics. Mob vio-
