This practice, which is free from the objections which may be made against external applications (which are usually violent irritants), quickens the circulation of the blood, producing exfoliation and the formation of new tissues, and at the same time restoring to the cheek its healthy color, which is generally lost by confluent small-pox.—Dr. Cox.
