Many persons abuse soap by making a-stiff, creamy lather in bathing, under the belief tlint-llils is neccessnry to dissolve dirt that fills the pores of the skin. On tho contrary.

Ex cessive uso of soap usually fills the pores with fatty substances and re sults iu imperfect action of tlio sweat glands, which is recognized ns a cause of disease, especially of a respiratory nature.
