which a healthy skin tissue requires.

(c). The skin, being exposed to all external influences, discloses the
symptoms of all forms of skin disease, the names of which are legion.

The skin specialist termed "dermatologist" is another production which
flourishes--more or less--upon the ignorance of the public. The patient,
alas, is less fortunate. He tries one after another until disgusted he
sometimes resorts to special diet. Sometimes this may help, if he choose
a certain kind of vegetable diet, and especially if the vegetables are
such as contain a great deal of silica; for silica is the mineral basis
of skin tissue. Full details of this are to be found in my analysis of
foodstuffs given in the chart at the end of volume No. I of my work,
"Regeneration."

(d). _Dose_: One gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful of
dermogen in a little water or milk once a day until regeneration of the
skin is fairly started. Reduce the dose gradually until complete
recovery has been accomplished.


DECH-MANNA COMPOSITION No. X.
GELATINOGEN (GELATIGENOUS TISSUE PRODUCER).

(a). All blood and lymphatic vessels, the alveoli of the lungs, all
tendons and cords in the entire system, the bowel tract, including the
stomach, the bladder, and in fact every organ or tissue which has the
function of expanding and contracting, must be of healthy gelatigenous
(rubber-like) tissue; otherwise it cannot perform its functions in the
system and must degenerate.
