clean piece of soft linen of sufficientsize to more than cover the part; take a piece of sheet-lead about asthick as an ordinary business card and a little smaller than the linen;make a paper pattern of the diseased area and then cut out the leada trifle smaller, so that when laid on the part the hole will fit justwithin the margin of disease; sew the linen and sheet of lead together,and fold the edges of the linen over all borders of the lead so that nometal contact will be made with the tissues, especially around thehole applied to the lesion; then adapt the completed mask to the partand attach tie-strings to hold it in place during treatment. Thishas some advantages over a mask made on a cardboard foundation. Do not forget that as healing takes place and the affected areashrinks, the hole in the lead shield must be reduced to fit as accuratelyas at first. Do not make the mistake of treating a lesion that has be-come one-half its first size with a shield cut to fit the original area
