A German physician has used tho .X-rays with success in the treatment of perspiring hands, a condition which is source of great annoyance to some persons.
 According to the Medical Record the fact that the hands of Roentgen ray workers become very dry led him to investigate the effect of the rays in cases of this sort. While it has not been found feasible to make use of the Roentgen rays as means of de- stroying superfluous hair owing to the fact that in order to secure perinan- ent atrophy of the hair follicles too great alteration of the skin as a whole must be caused. it appears that the functional activity of the sweat glands may be abrogated without un- due risk.
