skin Diseases

are wholly confined to the epidermis or ex-
ternal skin. and between the inner and ex-
ternal skins there are no blood vessels, hence
the disease cannot come from the blood.
Barrels of blood medicines can have no ef-
feet on these skin eruptions, for such medi-
cines cannot reach the seat of the trouble.
This class OF diseasesis caused by a germ or
parasite which burrows into the external
skin. there it lives, thrives and multipIies,
and the inflammation they set up causes the
awful itching and burning sensation.
