In the treatment of medicated baths

In the treatment of medicated baths, usually composed of that most evil-smelling compound liver of sulphur and water in professional language, "a sulphuretted potash solution" I own I have little or no faith. A plain sulphur ointment is twice as efficacious, far easier to apply, and has no disagreeable smell; while, if well rubbed into the skin, as it and other skin ointments should be, and not left in the hair, it is not in any way unpleasant.
