Walters Hands.

Many walters have hands that are
more c;llouS than Il bl2ckSmith'S OF
ironworker'S. The callousness comes
from carrying hot plates. coffeepots
and the like. The heat seems to fry
their skin and to make dead surface
to keep them from being burned by
things that Il man with ordinary hands
could not stand. 1t may have puzzled
people who go to some restaurants to
notice how the walters hold things III
their hands for some time which are
too hot for the hands OF the people at
the tables even to pass to one another.
This is the explanation: That the wait
ers hands become callous and hard.
So that the tough skin at the surface
has no more feeling than piece OF
horn.

eight inches of snow fell, on the level.
