2416.
Ring-worm.
The
head
should
be
washed
twice
a
day
with
soft
soap
and
warm
soft
water,
and
when
dry
the
places
should
be
rubbed
with
a
piece
of
linen
rag
dipped
in
ammonia
from
gas
tar.
The
patient
should
take
a
little
sulphur
and
treacle,
or
some
other
gentle
aperient,
every
morning.
Brushes
and
combs
should
be
washed
every
day,
and
the
ammonia
kept
tightly
corked.

Ointment
for
Scurf
in
the
Heads
of
Infants.
Lard,
two
ounces;
sulphuric
acid,
diluted,
two
drachms;
rub
them
together,
and
anoint
the
head
once
a
day.
2418.
Scurf
in
the
Head.
Into
a
pint
of
water
drop
a
lump
of
fresh
quicklime,
the
size
of
a
walnut;
let
it
stand
all
night,
then
pour
the
water
off
clear
from
sediment
or
deposit,
add
a
quarter
of
a
pint
of
the
best
vinegar,
and
wash
the
head
with
the
mixture,
which
is
perfectly
harmless,
and
forms
a
simple
and
effectual
remedy.
2419.
To
Restore
Hair
when
removed
by
Ill-health
or
Age.
Rub
onions
frequently
on
the
part
requiring
it.
The
stimulating
powers
of
this
vegetable
are
of
service
in
restoring
the
tone
of
the
skin,
and
assisting
the
capillary
vessels
in
sending
forth
new
hair;
but
it
is
not
infallible.
Should
it
succeed,
however,
the
growth
of
these
new
hairs
may
be
assisted
by
the
oil
of
myrtle-berries,
the
repute
of
which,
perhaps,
is
greater
than
its
real
efficacy.
Even
if
they
do
no
good,
these
applications
are
harmless.

Baldness.
The
decoction
of
boxwood,
which
has
been
found
successful
in
some
cases
of
baldness,
is
thus
made:--Take
of
the
common
box,
which
grows
in
garden
borders,
stems
and
leaves
four
large
handfuls;
boil
in
three
pints
of
water,
in
a
closely
covered
vessel,
for
a
quarter
of
an
hour,
and
let
it
stand
in
a
covered
earthenware
jar
for
ten
hours
or
more;
strain,
and
add
an
ounce
and
a
half
of
eau-de-Cologne
or
lavender-water,
to
make
it
keep.
The
head
should
be
well
washed
with
this
solution
every
morning.
