humors get into the blood, Rcnerally because of an inactive or Bliiggish
condition of the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and catry
off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter is left
to sour and ferment and soon tho circulation becomes charged with the acid
poison. Tho blood bee Ins to throw off tho humors and acids through the
jxrcs and glands of tho skin, producing Kczcma, Acne, Tetter, l'sodast,
t)alt Uhcum and skltt eruptions of various kinds, Kczcmn appears, usually
with a slight redness of tho skin followed by pustules from which there
flows ft sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense
It Is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and legs, though other parts
of the body may be affected. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleeds:
the acid in thp blood dries up tho natural ojls of the skin, which are intruded
to keen it soft nnd pliant, causing n dry, feverish condition and giving it a
hard, leathery appearance. Acne makes its appearance on the face in tho
