IT'S THE SKIN, NOT THE BLOOD
Costly Error of Treatment of Skin
Diseases by internal Nostrums
When the Surface Alone
Should be Healed.

If you slash your finger do yot
drink liniment to cure it? No. YOU
apply the lotion to the wound, yet peo
pie are treating skin diseases con
stantly by dosing the stomach
Until few years ago many doctors
thought that skin diseases originated
with the blood But the application
of the germ theory proves that skin
diseases are caused by germs which
lodge in the skin
TO cure the skin direct. through the
skin, Doctor Decatur d. Dennis com
pounded oil of wintergreen and other
remedial agents into liquid called d.
D. D. Prescription. He gave this to
his patients and found that the
eczema germs were eradicated while
the healthy skin was not injured at
all.
Later DR.. Dennis was prevailed upon
to allow private company in Chi.
cago to put up this remedy in bottles.
While DR.. Dennis has no direct con-
nection with the company selling the
prescription he endorsed the remedy
and sanctioned the sale of d. D. d.
Though drug stores.
Great credit Is due to physicians
who recommend this remedy-and
there are many such physicians
when they can make so much larger
fees by writing out their own pre-.
scriptions.
We vouch for D. D. d. Prescription
and d. d. D. soap and recommend
these 10 all sufferers from skin
diseases.
