V \ About tfifur Thing* You Should Kno : .v MM ini l!;ii ^ A by John Joseph GaUie% M. D. FACIAL ERUPTIONS The most common facial skin- disease is acne. It does not depend upon a<blood condition for its origin. ITierefore “blood-medicines” do not cure it. This disease varies in severity, from a few small pustules to many large ones, the latter often leaving disfigur ing pits or scars. A certain germ, the aqne baccillus, may be found with the microscope, and may rather accom pany than cause the eruption. We know that a rich, highly-seasoned diet will lend color to the picture; cheese and the like, including mince pies and fried foods are to be avoided. They overload certain glands of the skin which are already choked and inactive. A plain diet of coarse bread, fresh vegetables, plenty of fruits and drink ing water is to be commended. Young people do not need coffee or tea. TTie • pustules should never be squeezed. They may be carefully punctured with a clean needle dipped in a solution of carbolic acid before using, and then swabbed with cotton wet with peroxide of hydrogen. If hot wet packs are applied to the face, be sure to follow with cold packs, a min ute or two after. Leave the special medication to your physician. The acne patient should use his own towels and pillow-linen. The face should not be daubed with ointments or cheap lathers that stop up the pores. A good lotion for the face is made by adding boracic acid to water, in any strength desired, for it is harmless. Lemon-juiee lightly applied cleanses the tiny grooves in the skin, but should be rinsed lightly after the application. Use no face powders con taining lead or unknown coloring in gredients.
