$ an intensification of the action of the skin, incessantly going on, with more |

I lows : If this action of the skin be imperfect, impeded, or repressed by any |
I cause, fat and water accumulate in the tissues, the functional powers of which |
are lowered and weakened ; and the flesh, which should feel elastic, firm and |
I
I hard, becomes soft and flabby, resulting in a general derangement of the
|
i physical organization; and the evil eflfect on the body is experienced in |

I and beat him gently on the back with a woolen or camel-hair shawl, and

The Sanitary Woolen System is, therefore, salutary for those whose |

stimulating aid of the woolen clothing, which materially assists in elimina- |
ting from the tissues the excess of water and fatty matter always tending to |

I
It is hardly possible to give too much prominence to the fact, that Sana- I
tory Woolen Clothing affords great protection to those exposed to the in- |
fection of Diphtheria, Cholera, Typhus, the Plague, Dysentery, the |
Small Pox, as well as the Measles and Chicken Pox; a fact which Dr. Jaeger |
has abundantly demonstrated on scientific ground, and with rigorous prac- |
tical tests. ( See " Health Culture," p. 79.) |

preventive. // ads upon these diseases by assislmg the efforts of the skin to

I Their ?)iodus operandi may be summarized as follows
I
I The exhalations which are mal-odorous and noxious by reason of
I defective excretory action, are generated in the body during and after the
I
digestion of food, during all vital action in fact, or when the body is in-
I for mischief, if not duly eliminated from the body. This elimination,
I or sweat glands and their ducts are charged with this important office.
I There are about 7,000,000 of these little scavengers opening at the surface
I of the skin of an averaged-sized man, throwing oif from the surface from

danger.
I
I
The body not only gives off its exhalations to the surrounding air, but
^ also communicates them to all objects with which it and its atmosphere
I come in contact.
I Metallic substances, glass, and wood of which the pores are closed by
^ paint, varnish, etc., are practically impervious to the exhalations, while the
I two classes of material next mentioned absorb them, but in a very difFer-
I ent degree. |
I I. All vegetable fibers, such as linen, cotton, hemp, jute, paper, unvar- |
I
nished and unpainted wood, silk, and unsanitarily dyed or dressed wool |
I
and leather, attract and absorb these "noxious," " self-poisoning" exhal- |
I ations, and become, when in contact with human beings, gradually offen- I
sive and even poisonous in their effect. Clothing, (including linings and |
I
I padding, ) and bedding made from such fibers, are agreeable and wholesome
|
I
only when quite new and just washed, but soon become saturated with |
^ ^
I
the "noxious" exhalations, producing discomfort, and, if wet, when the |
I
vapors are set free, becoming especially dangerous. |
I
II. All kinds of animal wool and hair, leather, (undressed, or sanitarily
|
dressed and dyed,) feathers, horn, readily absorb all the excretions of the |
skin, but they do not retain them, but transmit, and disperse them at their |
outer surfaces, by ji repulsive energy to which the self-cleansing properties
|
of hair and wool fabrics are properly due. The value of this feature of |
the woolen system, more particularly with reference to its surgical uses, I
is hardly to be exaggerated. |
I
To secure its full benefits, the System should be adopted in its entirety. |
Time is required for the realization of the full benefits of the Sanitary |
I
Woolen System ; and those who adopt it should not be alarmed, misled |
or discouraged by symptoms consequent on the efforts of the skin to expel, |
through its secretions, any elements of disease previously retained in the |
body, from the repression of the exhalations by the ordinary, unsanatory

The following is the testimony of a high authority upon the value of |
Dr. Jaeger's book. W. H. Dixon, M. D., 35 Frederick Street, Sunder- |
land, Eng., writes, September, 1884 :
|
I
"How much health and comfort depend upon the construction and substance of
|
dress is scarcely at all understood. This subject has at last been scientifically studied and |
ably expounded by Dr. Jaeger, of Stuttgart, whose little book on Health Culture and
|
the Sanitary Woolen System, ought to be read by every intelligent person. The ^
thanks of the public are really due to Dr. Jaeger for the eminently useful and instructive ^
work." k
I
Here is a home witness whose testimony will be appreciated by the |
American public. Julian Hawthorne (in the " New York World") says :
|
I
"Every man and woman in America ought to read the little volume on 'Health ^
Culture and the Sanitary Woolen System, by Dr. Gustav Jaeger, of
' Stuttgart, of which |
a translation is published by Dr. Jaeger's Sanitary Woolen System Co., 827 Broadway. |
It is in some sort a trade publication — an advertisement of a business firm — but it is
|
not on that account the less valuable. Besides a great deal of wise counsel regarding
|
diet, ventilation and kindred subjects, it shows the high advantages of woolen over other ^
material for clothing, not only as a preservative of health, but as a cure and preventive of >^
many diseases. It is impossible to resist the Doctor's arguments, founded, as they are,
|
on science and practical experiment ; and the language in which the essays are written is
|
entirely devoid of technical difficulties, and has a familiar tone which renders the little
^
book intrinsically pleasant reading. The value of the Woolen System in the clothing of
|
children cannot be exaggerated, and those parents who have seen how their children ^
thrive by it, will not be slow in adopting it for themselves. The Jaeger Company will ^
not benefit more than their customers. ^

I is the reason why the soldier keeps his woolen-covered canteen wet in hot
I weather. On this principle, the Central American makes his porous, clay
I jar, through which the water percolates, and by surface evaporation keeps
I the water inside from 10° to 15" colder than the outside atmosphere. And
I thus it is that a wet, woolen garment disposes of the surplus heat, which
I causes excessive perspiration, and leaves the body cool ; while a wet
^ linen garment leaves the body cold, thus suddenly closing the "pores,"
I stopping the exudations, and turning them back to overtask some other
excretory organ, or to sow the seeds of disease in the human system.
I Paris, death would ensue in a few hours, from the total suppression of the
I cuticular excretions. Can any one doubt, that a partial suppression would

The imitations are so numerous, that it may be said, their name is legion. Goods offered
!? as all-wool, 'Jaeger' underwear, stamped with the word 'Normal' the property of —
I —
the Jaeger System and purporting to come from Stuttgart, the source of the genuine
'^>
Jaeger importations— with other devices calculated to deceive, can be found in almost
^ every city in the United States. One of these has been sent to the Jaeger Sanitary Woolen
p System Company, at 827 and 829 Broadway, for analysis the only way in which the —
^ fraud can be detected, since the ultimate fibres of the wool and cotton are combined in
^ the same thread. This analysis is done chemically and by the microscope. Under a
^ glass of from 300 to 500-diameter power, the Jaeger wool filaments are clearly seen to
^ be all alike in all general characteristics. They are shown to be tubular, and cylindrical
^ in form, and to be marked with wavy, transverse lines, denoting the imbricated scales,
^ upon which the property of felting depends. On the other hand, the cotton fibre is tape-
like, resembling a flattened tube, devoid of the cross lines, and generally somewhat
^
^ twisted, like an auger. A tuft taken from the spurious article, so closely resembling the
^ genuine that none but the most skilled expert would even suspect j;nything wrong, shows,
^
under the glass, the woolen and cotton fibres interlaced, in the proportion of about 33^
^ percent, of the latter.
^ "But the chemical test is by far the more striking. A remnant of the Jaeger fabric,
I thrown into a strong, hot solution of caustic soda, wholly disappears in a few seconds,
I leaving only a brownish liquid behind— the discoloration being due to the decomposition
I of the dark-hued wool, which, when mixed with the white, gives the 'natural-gray' color.
^ "The almost pure gelatine, of which the woolen fiber is composed, is rapidly dis-
^ solved in the caustic solution, while upon the cotton fiber, the solution has no appreciable
^ effect. So, when a clipping from the imitation garment is immersed in the solution, the

FOR MEN.
No one, on reflection, will dispute that outer-clothing is ordinarily constructed with- ^
out any reference to Sanitary principles. It fails to afford adequate protection to the ^
body against chills, because it admits draughts of cold air up the coat sleeves and trouser ^
legs, under the arm pits and in at the bosom. A crowning absurdity is the practice of |
cutting away the outer-clothing over the delicate organs of the chest, which are left to be S
protected only by the shirt front. Again, in hot weather, ordinary outer-clothing becomes S
hot and uncomfortable to a point at which relief can only be obtained by its removal. S
This is due to the imperviousness (to water or vapor) of the material — especially of
|
the lining, padding, backing of waist-coat, etc. — confining the heat and exhalations from
^
the skin. ^
I
Dr. Jaeger's Sanatory Woolen Outer-Clothing is constructed, as will be seen below, s
to obviate these serious evils, and those who adopt it may, in addition to its beneficial
|
effects upon the health, count upon an immense addition of personal comfort at all seasons,
^
whether hot or cold, and may rely upon adequate protection to the body against changes §
of temperature, however sudden and severe. g
The material consists, throughout, of pure animal wool, sanitarily dyed or of the nat- ^
ural color, and offers as little impediment as possible to the passage of the exhalations ^
from the skin.
|
"As exhaled vapors move in a straight direction, they are impeded by accumulation |
of web over web, the fibers of the upper layer obstructing the pores of the lower. The |
ordinary waistcoat, between coat and shirt, and padding in the coat, may therefore be
|
dispensed with. |
" The clothing fits so closely that the air between it and the body cannot move in
|
an ascending direction, thereby producing a draught of cold air from underneath. This |
close fit is obtained by the employment of as elastic a web as possible — "the stockinet" |
both for over and under-clothing. The coat buttons compactly to the figure, _and is well |
closed at the throat, so AS to maintain uniform warmth over the whole body. |
" Those to whom this may seem irksome, will find it so only at the very first. Every |
soldier will bear witness to the comfort of the buttoned-up coat." |
"A double thickness of material from the throat to the abdomen gives additional
|
warmth along the middle line of the trunk, to which the blood-vessels converge; these
|
are thereby expanded and the skin exhales more freely and rapidly. The sleeves of the ^
coat are lined with woolen material, and these, as well as the trousers may be closed ^
against upward draughts of air by webbing sewn in, fitting around the arms and legs— ^
MAINTAINING AN EQUAL TEMPERATURE and preventing the possibility of local chills." |

United States. In shape, beauty, perfection of fit, agreeableness and health-
fulness, these articles of the Jaeger System are not only not surpassed,
but demonstrably unequaled by anything in the line oftered to the public.
They are all made upon strictly sanitary prificiples, Avithout sacrifice of
symmetry and without unense to good taste.
The leather and other materials are especially prepared with a view
to durability, lightness, warmth, and the free transpiration of moisture,
and the consequent freshness of the air within the Shoes conditions —
indispensable to a healthy state of the feei, without which perfect
general health is impossible. The foot nowhere comes in con-

tact with the leather, but is
completely enveloped in a
. * ^ ^ o ; fine woolen or camel-hair
fabric of the Jaeger manu-
facture, with which the
Shoes are lined. A soft
and a freely-perforated felt insole, which, in its turn, is underlaid with an-
other felt sole, resting, at the arch of the instep, upon a light steel spring, to
connection with the pure, woolen sanatory socks, and stockings, that the
Jaeger Boots and Shoes are so highly sanatory, being both curative
and preventive of the various disorders to which the feet are subject.
Weak feet are hardened by the unimpeded evaporation set up; the joints
are strengthened corns, and
;
other troubles from undue pressure, are
prevented.

I that no dye can come off on the skin ; while dyed yarns are |

perspiration or washing. And it retains its softness — which ^
