Excerpt from The Progressive Barber: A Book for the Apprentice and for the Barber Describing the Anatomy and Physiology, of the Skin, Diseases of the Skin, That Are of Special Interest to the Barber and the Use of Antiseptics and Their Value The author of this book took special pains to avoid as much as possible, all medical terms that may confuse the apprentice, or the barber. The anatomy and physiology of the skin is described in detail, because references are made to them frequently in the after reading. Only the diseases that are of interest to the barber are mentioned. The treatments for the various diseases mentioned were purposely omitted, because the barber is not allowed by law to treat diseases. Only the most valuable antiseptics are recommended. The reader should not condemn the author on account of the so frequently mentioning of alcohol as an antiseptic or a disinfectant, as he considers it the cleanest, strongest and quickest acting disinfectant, which can be easily employed, that leaves no odor, and does no harm to the barber's instruments.
