Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
AUGUSTUS BARNES, 0F SOUTHINGTON, CONNECTICUT.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 65,044, dated May 28, 1867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS BARNES, of Southington, county of Hartford, and State of Connecticut, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement or Discovery for Removing Flesh-Marks and Discolorations from the Human Body, and to enable others to practice the same, I will proceed to describe.
The nature of this discovery consists in the employment of a glass lens for concentrating the rays of sunlight upon the object, and thereby cauterizing, scorching, blistering, and evaporating every form and species of surfacemark, or protuberances, discoloratious, maladies, including nosed materni, or marks which mothers impress upon their children before their birth, and sometimes covering nearly the whole of their faces or other portions of the body, consisting of protuberances or discolorations, embracing every shade of color, black, brown, red, purple, scarlet, crimson, or any other color comprised under birth or mothers marks, which is done by the use or employment of a convex lens or sun-glass, by concentrating the rays of the sun through said lens, and pourin gthem onto or into the afl'ected part, which penetrates down through the euticle, or outer skin, and thereby destroys the extraneous or coloring matter, called the pigment, which is contained in the rate mucosum, or second layer of the skin, and is generally the part that is enlarged to make the projection, while underlying that is generally the dermis, or lower skin, and which generally covers a true surface or white flesh, of which ,the other side is' a duplicate, all of which I destroy down to this third layer, thereby removing the discolor or protuberance, and
. the extraneous or false flesh, which is all left on for the time, and comes off in a scab in about two weeks, leaving only a red stain, which. is caused by the burning, which gradually and entirely disappears in from one to six months, and not leaving a scar or trace whatever to indicate where it was, and becomes just like the rest of the flesh or the complexion and what seems perfectly incredible is that it never leaves a scar, which I believe cannot be said of any other bluuling, cauterizin g, or mutilation. 7
My process for taking off or out surface cancers in their first stages, hair-moles, fleshmoles, small wens, surface tumors, bloodwarts, uncapped veins, all scaly and warty patches, even though they are in the hair of the scalp, without destroying the roots of the hair, chancres, and if treated in the first stages of the disease, before being absorbed in thesystem, destroys the virus, and consequently makes a perfect cure also, salt-rheum, ringworm, and barbers-itch, as well as permanent scrofula, patches, india-ink marks, are erased by the same process; obstinate soft corns, considered incurable in any other way, or by other treatments. All these and many other nondescript surface affections are destroyed, evaporated, extirpated, and annihilated without starting a drop of blood or leaving a scar, except for a short time, and without any injurious effect, and generally without any interruption from business.
I believe I have thus shown the nature and mode of operation or practicing this improvement so as to enable others skilled to practice the same.
lVhat I claim, therefore, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The use or employment of a glass lens for removing flesh marks and discolorations, 850., substantially in the manner described.
AUGUSTUS BARNES. [L. s.]
