Septic Nails
| Dear Aunt Daisy, One may add to your good advice on septic hands and nails something we found out for ourselves after various antiseptic treatments by doctors, including some form of X-ray. After each "cure" there was, before long, a return of the trouble-the cause being re-infection by gloves, each finger being a little dark bag of infection! So turn the fingers inside out and sun and air them; also to rub with some good dry disinfectant is a safe precaution where gloves are too good to destroy. — Eastbourne." Thank you for a splendid hint, I suppose boracic acid powder would be good | for this purpose,
