the plant.
The disorder causes discomfort al

redness, heat and irritation of the
skin, swelling and the formation OF
small vesicles. These vesicles may
occur in great numbers. Often many
of them coalesce to form blisters and
they also break and exude sticky

by its escape spreads the disease to
the adjacent skin or to the face and

AS a rule the acute symptoms con-

which time the vesicles either dis

and redness slowly disappear. In this
stage the itching may be intense and
is likely to provoke repeated scratch
ing, which may in turn bring about
eczema.
The best way to treat ivy poison

should be coplously washed with luke
warm water and a soap that roes not

then be bathed with a watery solution

increased up to , or 3 per cent. Treat

more deeply seated and the perman
