Skin Irritaions
that Itch and Burn

skin and all the pain and discom-
fort IS confined to the surface Of
the skin, these disorder; are called
Skin diseases. Bot the real cause
is Q disease germ in the blood, which
multipies by the million, and sets
up an irritation in some tender
location Of the delicate skin.
You can get some little relief Tor
the time being by rubbing or
scratching the iritated skin, but
you would not expect TO be cured
in this way. Neither should you
expect a cure from local applics-
tibns Of lotions, ointnerts or other
remedies applied 10 the skin, for
the simple reason that a cure must
come from the source Of the trouble
You must locate The headouar-
ters Of the disease germs, and cut
off their base Of supplies. The blood
is saturated with them, and they
will set up their attacks on the sur
face Of the skin as long As they re-
main in the blood no matter how
much local treatment you take.
