Hoze, To Keep WeN
 By DR. WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

thing or another is absorbed through the unbroken skin.
 Of course I don't know any more than the next doctor does whether anything is or can be 50 absorbed But I don't believe the intact skin can absorb anything, and I am will ing to have the question tested on my skin, provided the tests be prop erly controlled to protect against in- halation of any of the poison which is applied to my skin, and provided the results of the test be reported to the public--or to the coroner, as the case may be-and both sides agree in advavnce to abide by the results and to cut out the contro- versy upon the subject.
 Alice Hamilton says tetraethyl lead is absorbed through the skin.
 A lot of medical men, pharmacists, chemists and folks who believe all they read and do not think much for themselves have assured me that plenty of iodin, or mercury salve. or belladonrla, or nitroglycerin applied to my skin will soon change my mind. O. K.-if you can get a quo- rom, hire a hall and procure a sup- ply of the stuff, I'll come on for the experiment. But you've got to do 1t in the open. No skullduggery or anonymous monkeyshines.
 The latest devastating scientific evidence against me is the dogmatic assertion by research investigators that they have proved that vitamin D is absorbed through the skin of rats, whether 1t IS applied in the form of fish liver oil or the artificial irradiated product known as vioster- ol.
 Baloney. No one knows as yet whether vitamin D is a substance or an influence or what. Even If we knew that vitamin D is a substance, you could not scientifically deduce absorption through the. skin from such an experiment. The compara- lively minute quantity rat would have to ingest to prevent or cure rickets might easily be ingested in the ordinary way, by the rat lick ing itself or scratching itself or rub ping against . surface and then licking the feet or the surfaces on which the skin has been rubbed.
 Such an experiment is no more significant than the common one of painting iodin on the skin and shortly afterward finding iodin in the urine. Iodin is volatile enough, and unless the experiment is con- troIled so as to prevent inhalation of the volatized iodin, 1t proves nothing.
 The same criticism applies to the old fancy that mercury ointment is absorbed through the skin. Most physicians today know better, and mercury ointment is now rarely ap- piled where systemic action of rner- cury is required, because no one can judge how much or how little mer- cury will be inhaled when the medi- cine is so administered.
 Sugar
 M. Told raw sugar contains 200 times as much calcium as refined white sugar. Should we substitute raw for refined sugar? (R. O.
 Answer-Perhaps 1t does, but even so, raw sugar is insignificant so far as providing calcium is concerned. Milk, eggs, cheese, fresh vegetables, peas, beans, entire wheat are ade- quate sources of calcium. Use what ever form of sugar you prefer.

The Truth About Diet HOW YOUR FOOD BREAKS DOWN
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

BY DIX. MUKHlS F1SdDElN Editor, Journal of the American
 Medical Association. and Of
 Hygeia, the Health Magazine
 When carbohydrates are absorbed, they pass into the blood as simple sugars. The starches are broken down into simple sugars.
 From the intestines these mate- rials pass into the liver. There they are stored up as a special sugar called glycogen, used up by the body in muscular action.
 The amount of sugar in the blood therefore, is usually constant. When a large amount of sugar is taken that is to say, more than can be promptly stored in the liver-the amount of sugar in the blood is increased. The excess will then pour into the excretions of the body.
 Sugars which are not digested and which do not get into the blood may be fermented in the bile and change to acids.
 The fats are absorbed with the aid of the bile, sometimes in the

OUR IMPERvIOUs HIDE

The best medical authorities still believe that certain substances are absorbed through the unbroken skin To cite just one, there is Alice Ham, ilton, M. D., whose works on Indus trial Poisons and Toxicology are classics of modern medical litera- ture.
 Most good physicians probably still harbor convictions about this. Many chemists, pharmacists, re- search workers and other of scien- tific bent are quite positive that one

Today's Heath Question

Q.-Is there any way to stop the terrible itching from which people with diabetes suffer?
 Ali the person with dia- betes will correct the amount of sugar that he takes in, and control its absorption through a suitable amount of insulin, the itching is likely to stop. This requires care- full study by one who under stands the care of diabetes. Any doctor can prescribe @ lo- ton or an ointment which will relieve the itching.
