THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13,1879.

INDIANAPOLIS has had another murder. Sheriff Pressly might as well keep that gallows standing.

BEN BUTLER is reported to be putting on his war paint. If Benjamin would wash his hands he would accomplish a much more edifying and needed object han he can hope to by daubing himself with any paint known of men, whitewash included.

COMMENTING on the news from Cape Town announcing the annihilation of a portion of the British command by the Zulus, the London Times concludes its article with the following sentence, which worthily portrays the animating sentiment ®f the Anglo-Saxon race: "It is a melancholy consolation, meanwhile, that the gallant troops of the 34th regiment did their duty and died at their posts like Englishmen."

IN the Senate, Friday, it was asserted by Senators Davis and Beck, and admitted by Senator Ingalls, Chairman of the Committee on Pensions, that twenty per cent, of all the pensions paid by the Government are fraudulent. It would seem to the ordinary observer that, in view of the fact that several millions of dollars are paid out each year for this class of claims, an inviting field for investigation was offered to some ambitious Congressman.

A BILL enabling wom6n, after compliance with certain rules, to practice before the Supreme Court of the United States, parsed the Senate last week and now only awaits the signature of the president. It provides that if the applicant has been a member in good standing of the highest court of any state or of the supreme court of the District'of Columbia for three years, evidence of of such facts by the production of the record, and proof of good character shall entitle her to practicc before the Supreme Court of the United States. One by one the barriers which limit the rights of women are crumbling to pieces.

MEMPHIS seems to be suffering from aH epidemic of dishonesty more deadly than the yellow fever with which she was afflicted last summer. It is not a pleasant spectacle to see a city repudiate her past obligations in the shameless fashion 6he is doing. That her debt is large and onerous is most true. Doubt less much of the money she has borrowed was squandered by reckless or dis~ honest officials. But was not the fault of the men to whom shea pplied for mon ey and from whom it was borrowed. It would hardly seem probable that her officials could have been honest, if they, were chosen from among her own citi zens, seeing that the whole sentiment of the city consents to a high-handed and mast outrageous robbery. |gf

Menphis suffered much last summer but the whole country contributed most lavishly to the alleviation of her suffering and to the supplying of the wants of her citizens. She^ti should understand that the sentiment of those people who helped her in her affliction i6 very violently opposed to her conduct now and disposed to censure it severely. If she expects sympa"•^hy or support in the future she should ^•Me»st not outrage all the principles of ^cotyaaon decency and honesty.

Valuable Treatise 011 Cutaneous Diseases by Doctor George Beard.

Apart from the suffering caused by skin diseases, their influence on the happiness of those to whom a delicate and pearly complexion is the dearest wish of their lives is paramount to all others. No lady afflicted with cutaneous eruptions, or loss of hair, will deny that, to obtain a fair 6kin and luxuriant tresses, she would gladly exchange the disfigurations that now mar her otherwise handsome face, hands, or hair, for other diseases of greater severity—even danger —could their existence be concealed from the public eye. There is something repulsive about a face covered with humor and all the grace of manner and brilliant powers of conversation can scarcely remove the impression produced on or.e who witnesses it. It is remembered when more important and worthy subjects are forgotten. Many an estimable lady's life, has been embittered by cutaneous affections. She imagines that every one sees and comments upon her looks. She avoids society and the public, and endeavors to hide her misery in seclusion. Here the struggle to improve her appearance is renewed. No remedy is too repulsive or dan jerous to be used. Arsenic is devoured by the pound, mercury is taken internally and applied externally until the teeth rattle in their loosened sockets, and the system groans beneath the load of poisons it it is obliged to carry•

If such be the feelings

with slight skin blemishes, what must be the condition of those suffering from saltrheum, tetter, ring worm, pemphigus, psoriasis, leprosy, lichen, prurigo, and bcald head? No pen can fully discribe the tortures they endure. Death in many case6 might be considered a blessing. The burning heat, inflammation, and itching,nearly impel the sufferer to do violence to himself in order to end his sufferings. I have 6een patients tear their flesh with their nails until the blood flowed in streams. Others have told me that they could cut the flesh from their limbs, so great was the agony thev endured

With a view to imparf some useful information on the construction and preservation of the skin, scalp, and hair, and the proper treatment of them when diseased, I have here condensed to a popular form .my previpus,articles on this subject.

1

THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SKIN. The skin is composed of two layers, which may be separated from each other by the action of a blister. The thin portion, which is raised up by the blister, is called the scarf skin, the cuticle, or the epidermis that which remains in connection with the body is the sensitive skin. Each has separate duties to perform. The scarf skin is horny and insensible, and serves as a sheath to protect the more sensitive skin under it. Were the scarf skin taken off, we could not bear to have anything touch us. The derma or true skin and its glands, oil tubes, etc., are the seat of all cutaneous diseases. These may be separated into four great dh isions, viz., diseases of the true skin, diseases of the sweat glands and tubes, diseases of the oil glands and tubes, and diseases of the hair and hair glands.

THE OIL GLANDS AND TUBES. That the skin may be limber and healthy it is necessary to have it oiled every day, and for this the Creator has wisely provided by placing in the true skin small glands and tubes, whose office it is to prepare and pour out upon the surface the proper amount of oil. On some parts of the body they do not exist, but are abundant on the face, nos^, ears, head, eyelids, etc. They produce the wax of the ears, and on the head they open into the Bheath of the hair, and furrish it with nature's own hair oil or pomade. When the akin is healthy, these little vessels are always at work, and constantly responding to tha demandmade upon them. Consequently no person should bs afraid to wash thoroughly every day wilh soap and water, lest, as the Boston Medical Journal once taught the skin be injured by having the oil removed from it. Frequent washing with pure soap—and 1 have something to say further on about soap that will be of interest to all who desire to preserve the skin and scalp in health or to properly treat them when diseased—and lukewarm water, followed by brisk rubbing with a coarse towel, will do more to preserve the healthy action of the oil glands and tubes, upon which depends a clear and wholesome complexion, than all the cosmetics in the world. But, unfortunately, the skin is not well taken care of. Its actions, instead of being regular and complete, are sluggish and imperfect, and the cootentf of the oil cells and tubes, instead of flowing easily, become hard and impacted, ..and the. vessels are not emptied. -V

Sometimes the action of the gland is great, and oil is poured out so prooiv that U»e surface shines with it. At is «vunes there is 60 little that the skin matleyA hard.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

nificance when compared with the great skin and scalp diseases with which thousands are aflictwd during their whole lives. That the reader may know more about them, the principal affections are here named, omitting scch as are symptoms of constitutional diseases, like measles, rash, etc. The most important are salt rheum, or eczema, tetter, ringworm, psoriasis, impetigo, leprosy, lidhen, prurigo, barber's itch, Jackson's itch, baker's itch, ground itch, scald head and dandruff.

Towering above all others in extent, in duration, in suffering, is SALT-RHKUMT, or, technically, eczema. Wilson divides it into twelve species, and others into many more but it is sufficiently clear to the average reader, and will be recognized by its small watery blister, about the size of a pinhead, whenever seen. Prurigo, impetigo, and psoriasis are but little behind sail-rheum in the suffering they cause. Scald-head is another obstinate affection, defying all remedies, destroying the hair, and producing great misery and suffering. The 6calp, like the skin, is subject to 6alt-rheum, tetter, dandruff and other eruptive and scaly diseases, which generally destroy the hair follicles and produce permanent baldness.

THE TREATMENT

of diseases of the skin and scalp has been for centuries based upon the mistaken theory that they are caused by some impurity of the blood. It is no nnjust reflection upon the medical profession to say that its efforts in the cure of 6kio diseases ha\e been a failure. What with mistaken theories, poisonous remedies, and blind adherence to methods and practices originating in ignorance and superstition, salt-rheum, scald-head and psoriasis flourish and increase upon systems shattered by the copious use, both internal and external, of met cur v, arsenic, zinc and lead. Dr. Wood mildly admits that the mercurial influence does sometimes produce salt-rheum,—a fact so well kno.vn that it is recorded in most of the text-books as mercurial eczema. .» '-jiiH tt'

BLOOD REMEDIES.

The false popular notion that every affection of skin, from salt-rheum to scald-head, must be treated with the socalled "blood purifiers".to be cured, has filled many a grave. I do here assert, in the most positive manner, that the vesicular, pustular and scaly diseases above referred to cannot he cured by any internal remedies in use by the medical profession, and in this statement I am supported by the lamentable failure-of those who attempt it. The fact is, these diseases are purely local, and the day is not far distant when it will be generally ad mitted by all physicians. They have no connection with the blood. I have known salt-rheum to cover the body after undue exercise, or sudden immersion in cold water. The true cause of these skin diseases must be looked tor in a derangement of the secretory and excretory tubes and vessels of the true skin. I defy any member of any medical school of practice to cure saltrheum, or psoriasis, or pemphigus, or impetigo solely with internal remedies. And yet, ''Purify the blood!" is the crv of doctors. Purify the blood!" is echoed by quacks and charlatans, until the cry, in seasons and oat of seasons, is, Blood purifiers! blood purifiers! while the 6eat of all the trouble, the diseased oil glends, tubes and vessels of the skin, which can be reached only by external treatment, are left to take care ot themselves. How much suffering, how much misery has been caused by this senseless and cruel custom of the graj beards of the profession no pen can fully protray.

In imitation of his letters, the patentmedicine man has beeii^ab^oad ajid^ scattered his "DOCKS," "DANDELOIKS" AND "S.VRSA-

PARILLAS"

throughout the length and breadth of the land. Every day some new aspirant lor fame and fortune came forward with his universal deranger and destroyer of the intricate system ot digestion and abso on a if upon analysis will be more more likely to be found to be a blood poisoner, and the credulous stand ready to swallow gallons of it at enormous prices, only to find themselves worse in the end.

Of what are these innocent-looking "docks" and '"dandelions," popularly called "blood purifiers" and "alteratives" by the medical books, composed? The active ingredient—that is, the one supposed to cure—is either mercury or arsenic. Out of seventeen prescriptions denominated "alteratives," taken from a standard medical work, eight contained mercury in the form ot corrosive sublimate, the protoiodide, and the blue pill, five arsen ic, ihree iodine—all corrosivc poisons. For four hundred years mercury has been the sheet anchor of the regular practitioner, and arsenic the main stay of the specialist. It is not to be expected that the productions of quacks and patcntmedicine men are any better. So mnch for internal remedies. While the blood is being purified by the internal administration of poison (I) the goo.i wotk is often hastened forward, where the subject is skin disease, by the external application of ointments and salves and solutions, in eyery ca*e containing a virulent poison. Referring to the same "standard medical work," we find that these are directed to be prepared from,

CORROSIVE SUBLIMATE

(mercury!),white precipitate (mercury!!) red precipitate (mercurv!!!), citrine •intment (mercury!!!!), prussic acid, arsenic, zinc, sulphur, lead, creosote, and opium as suits the fancy or prejudice of the physician. Here is the whole list in the exact order in which they are given: not one is omitted. Verily there is a Providence watching over us else how could we survive such treatment? This is the course pursued by the average practitioner and advocated by most of the schools of medicine.

But a little light is being thrown upon the darkness that has surrounded the intellect of the past. To a few German and French physicians and specialists*we owe what true progress we are making at the present time in the cure of obstinate affections of the scalp and skin. They teach and prove that diseases of the skin and 6calp cannot be cured by internal treatment. External remedies are the only hope. It is as reasonable as that we should treat a sere finger as we are accustomed to. Why should the sv6tem be deluged with mercury when, as

every

body knows, perfect digestion and assim­

ilation make pure blood, and poison will not do it? Why should th^digesti organs be paralyzed,the stomach nauseated, the whole course of digestion and absorpt up«rt, when a pimple makes its arpearance because of the imperfect action of the oil glands and tubes, or when the system is taxer^ to sustain life under some terrible skin diseast? It is the fashion it is part of our education^ and it is useful to both doctors and their imitators^ Habits and customs (net reason and common-sense) with invisible fingers lead us by the nose.

It mast not be supposed, however, that because I so stoutly assail the internal administration of medicine for the cure of skin and scalp diseases that I do not approve of proper internal remedies as assistants when the pulse is full, the system feverish, the skin hot and dry, the tongue coated, the liver torpid, the bowels constipated, or when the system, as in many cases, is debilitated and weakened by the presence of the virus of scrofula, or when the constitution has been shattered by malarial and anti-periodic fevers and prostrating cot.tagious diseases. On the contrary, I do most heartily recommend them, because I know that there is such thing as purifying, enriching and strengthening the blood. But I do so as assistants always. The force of my medication and that of every successful practitioner must be directed to the 6eat of the trouble, the skin or scalp surface. It is the dishonest part .of thii blood purifier business that I condemn. The poisonous remedies, born Of ignorance and cupidity, thus foisted upon an innocent public, I mean to pursue until 1 have driven them out of existence.

A SENSIBLE CURE

If I have appeared severe upon my brethren of the medical profession, I have not been unjustly so toward phys icians who adhere to practice »t variance with reason and common sense, and, withal, lamentable failures. Pernicious doctrines, like cancers, must be removed root and branch, though some blo«d be spilled in the operation.

I bave passed through all the various modes of practice^ current among medical men, and have arrived at these conclusions 1 That the vesicular and scaly forms of diseases herein referred to cannot be cured by internal remedies, as principals. They are not of themselves diseases of the blood, but of the bil glands tubes, and cells of the true skin. 2. They »re curable entirely by exfernal remedies, as principals, if the proper ones are applied with or without the assistance of internal remedies dependent upon the constitutional symptoms present. To find the proper ones has been a weary ta«k. I here asert that no ointment, salve, cerate, lotion, or compound, for external application, to be fcuftd in the materia medica of the schools and colleges of medicines, and there are thourands of them, will certainly cure a case of chronic salt-rheum, psoriasis, or leprosy,—no, not even dandruff and simple scaly affections. I have tried them with all the care and experience suggested by liberal education, but with uniform failure in every case a6 to specific curative properties. Hence, when Messrs. Weeks & Potter, Chemists and Druggists, of Boston, informed me that for eight years they had been experimenting in distillation, and had «Ucceeded in preparing from original substances never, they believed, before used in medicine, a preparation that Ihey considered an infalliable cure for every kind of skin disease proper (meaning the vesicular, and &caly), from chronic salt-rheum to dandruff, I felt bound in justice to suffering humanity to test the truth of this statement, and either indorse or expose it, as it proved worthy or unworthy. Accordingly, I received a quantity of the remedy, and wa6 made familiar with the mode of preparation. The name given this remarkable product is Cuticura, from cutis, the skin, and cura, a cure,—a skin cure. In practice I found it to possess wonderful curative properties as they exist in no other remedy to be found in the preparations of the day. Vegetable products hitherto unattainable by chemical manipulation yielded to the process adopted by them. Their extraction by distillation in the form of vapor, and condensation to the consistence of jelly, form a process ranking as a remarkable discovery worthy a conspicuous place in the history of mediin a ha a

SOOTHING AND HEALING. Cuticura, when U6ed as directed, is wonderfully adapted to soothe and heal the most inflamed surface, to allay itchings and irritation, to cleanse and purify the pores of the skin, and restore to healthv and regular action the oil glands, tubes and cells, upon whose perfect action depet.d the preservation of a healthy skin and restoration when diseased. It does not evaporate until the temperature is raised to more than double that of the body, and hence is not dissipated by heat, but remains on the skin until completely absorbed. It does not become rancid or fpoil on exposure in any climate. It will be as fresh, fragrant soothing and healing filty years hence as it is to-day. Contrast this with the horrible salves and ointments of the present time. It6 fragrant odor no more grateful than is its agreeable taste, for be it known, no remedy is better adapted to cure affections of the throat and lungs than Cuticura.

Having been charmed, I must confess, with the results of my analysis of this new product, my next step was to demonstrate its value in the treatment of the great skin affections usually considered incurable. 1 know that every word I now write 'WILL AWAKEN HOPE in the breast of many a life long-suffei er. Can I, in a broad and Christian spirit, wilhout prejudice, without reservation, &ay to those afflicted: Here, in this great natural remedy, i6 a speedy and penranent cure With a just sense of ihe responsibility I assume, I say I can. There does not exist a case cf chronic salt-rheum, scald-head, dandruff, or itchin" eruption, that Cuticura may not cure, unless the recuperative powers of the oil glands and tubes are destroyed forever. One application to the severest case brings a pleasurable relief impossible to crtdit. It is so soothing, so penetrating, so healing, and withal so gentle »tid saJ'e, that before the patient i» aware, healthy action 6ets in and a cure begins.

HUNDREDS OF CURES.

My first case was one of salt-rheum of fifteen years' duration, and extending

over three quartei»of the body, including the face and hands. Thousands of dollars had been spent on this case. Europe had been visited. Spcciihsts of Continental reputation had grown fat on it, without so much as affording relief so thaf he could ^njoy a full nights re6t. I cured it in three weeks—entirely and completely. My next was an infant two years old, born with a humor of the face and scalp that resisted every form of treatment. I cured it in a few days with Cuticura. I mention this case more for the purpose of illustrating the soothing and quieting influence of the preparation. He never scratched the affected parts after the first application, but seemed contented and willing to let things take their course. A scald head, that had resited the treatment of one of our noted specialists on the skin, \nd which was rftpidly destroying the hair, was completely cured by me in four weeks, solely with Cuticura, coeting the patient one dollar, which he paid for a large box. Eczema of the palins of the hands and of the ends of the fingers, very difficult to treat, and usually considered impossible of cure, was cured in every case.

I have had a great many cases of small patches of tetter and salt-rheum on the nose and at the sides of the face, in the palms of the hands, and at the ends of the fingers, heads covertd with dandruff and scaly eruptions, all of which I have cured with Cuticura, and that rapidly and permanently, with no other remedy than the Cuticura Resolvent, which by its purifying action cooled the system, rendered the liver and kidneys active, the blood pure and strengthening, and controlled these disturbances of the organs of digestion and assimilation, when found to be present and interfere with the complete success of external treatment. One of the last cases I treated in the course tper for a'small group of vesficle of salt-rheum on the nose, just at the side of the nostril. The patient was a man of forty years of age. I said, "That is trifling, and will soon dia^pear." "Trifling as it may seem," said he,

,(it

LI" LOSS OF H\IR,

in thousands of cases, is due entirely to some form of scalp disease. Se ventyfive per cent of the number ot bald heads might be covered with hair by a judicious use cf Cuticura. It is the m06t agreeable as well as the most effective hair restorer I ever4saw. All others that I have examined are simply dressings and dyes without any specific medical properties for cure of itching and scaly diseases that inflame and irritate the scalp and hair glands and tubes, causing premature baldness.

The specific action of Cuticura in the cure of burns, scalds, bruises, cuts, festers, piles and itchiog piles, demonstrates more fully its healing properties than anything I can say of it.

Other affections of the surface, but not properly skin diseases, such as SCROFULOUS ULCEHS( AND SORES, abcesses, milk leg, fever sores, erysipelas sores, old sores and discharging wounds, boils, carbuncles and blood' impurities, which manifest themselves by bursting through the skin and eating deep into the flesh, when treated internally by the Resolvent and externally by the Cuticura, rapidly heal and disappear.

Let me stop here a moment to pay tribute to a justly celebrated remedy for impurities of the blood and circulating fluids—I mean the Cuticura Resolvent, a powerful vegetable purifying agent. It is the remedy that I now use in all conditions of the system where an internal remedy is needed to assist the Cuticura to a complete a.id permanent cure, or when the blood is corrupted by scrofula or material poisons.

A PURE SKIN SOAP.

Cuticura Soap, appropriately named after the great remedy from which it draws its cwrative properties, is a a delicate natural green color, showing its wholesome vegetable origin. It's emollient, soothing and healing action is the same as Cuticura, only in a modified form- While it cannot take the place of the latter in the treatment of obstinate skin and scaly affections, it may possibly astist it at every stage and isjpositively indispensable in most cases. Its medical ingredients are so refined and purified of gross or inert matter tbat they are known to be present only by their grand curative effects, while its fragrance, unsurpassed by the best Persian products, §]aces it foremost among the finest toilet soaps yet produced. Added to its many attractions is the low price at which it is supplied to all. It is in every respect a pleasing ,con-

trau to the filthy products prepared from the refuse of sinks, vats, hotels, hospitals, and rendering houses reeking with putrescence, and animal parasites and the germs of contagious diseases, and innocently labelled

u6kin

soap." In recom­

mending it as an assistant to Cuticura, as well as fdt the preservation of the skin of infants, or gentlemen who shave, and those who desire a fresh and wholesome skin and scalp, but fill to the brim the measure of my duty to the public.

I know that what 1 have written in theae columns will bring

HT JOY TO MANY,

and I mean it shall. I want to make thow happy who, by reason of these affections and diseases, have been unhappy and that I may do so, I freely proclaim the virtues of the cuticura remedies. and as long as good natured editors grant me space in their papers I meanfto db so. And as long as Messrs. Weeks

Potter can flirnish them at a price within the reach of all who need them, there must be lesa suffering from these intolerable disorders than ever before. Let me say, in conclussion, what I have before so often said, cuticura, assisted by the resolvent and soap, will cure scalp and skin diseases that have defied the skill and resources of the ablest physicians. I have demonstrated it to be true. A grand curative blessing is thus substituted for death-dealing poisans. Mercury, arsenic, zinc, and lead, and a thousand and one other revolting and poisonous and senseless things prescribed by ignorance and superstition must now sink into obscurity before the wonderful healing .power of Cuticura. As a man, I recommend it to my fellow men as a physician, I endorse it to the profession as the friend of humanity, I rejoice at the discovery, and proclaim it to the world for the benefit of mankind.

CLEANLINESS NEXT TO GOD'LIHESS. My article would not be complete without further impressing the necessity of frequent washing of the skin or scalp with soap—using plenty of soap. Whether the skin or scalp is diseased or healthy, do not be afraid of soap. It will assist all other remedies if diseased, and preserve and freshen the healthy skin. Too much ignorance prevails as to its value in the preservation of the skin and scalp. On this subject Messrs Weeks & Potter say: "From the first we feared that Cuticura might fail, or its effects be neutralized in many cases, by the

Since in the tieatment of cutaneous affections it was a daily, almost hourly necessity, we attempted to prepare from Cuticura a soap having in a modified form, all its medicinal properties that would be what we might call with pride a skin soap in the truest 6ense of the words, and at the same time have its medical ingredients so refined and purified that they would be visible only in their curative effect. To this combination it was proposed to add the choicest flower odors, that it might at the same time charm with its refreshing fragrance. Every effort to produce this desoideratum failed and it was abandoned. The matter of soap was left unprovided for. To show how important those who were using the Cuticura* and inconstant need of soap regarded this article, it is only necessary to say that we were beset with inquiries as to 'what soap was pure,' what 'would we recommend,' etc., until we were forced again to undertake the preparation of the Cuticura Soap, this time with a determination to succeed. The resuit of our labors we may justly claim to have been successful in the highest degree, resulting in the production of the purest and most effective skin soap before the public." ,M
