The head should be carefully shampooed and then would be benefited by applying for two weeks a lotion made from three drams of glycerine and sous ounces of lime water. This is rubbed in with the finger tips, keeping It from the long hair. At the end weeks put half an ounce of tincture of cantharldes to the original amount of the lotion and apply this, at the end of the month increasing the tincture to one ounce to the first proportions of the lotion.
