Among other diseases which
appear on the skin of the hand
but which are caused by deeper
changes is so-called Raynaud's
disease, due TO blanching and
pallor of one or more fingers.
Sometimes this occurs on ex-
posture to cold and cold water
and sometimes from emotional
disturbances. 1t is apparently a
nervous disease affecting the
blood vessels.

forms.
Pimples or pustules on the
hands are usually due TO a
secondary infection of der
mathis. The dermatitis may
come from soap or other chemi-
Gals.
Ringworm is possible on the
hands and may become infected,
producing pimples. The same
thing is true of scabies or the
itch. Plain old-fashioned small
pox may appear on the hands IN
more profusion than anywhere
else on the body.
Scales-The commonest cause
of scales on the hand IS some
form of eczema. Eczema is an
old-fashioned term which will
probably never go out of usage,
although skin specialists, are
rather anxious to discard it for
the reason that it is sort OF a
cloak for ignorance and the
eczema may actually be due TO
chemical dermatitis or some
other form of irritation.

STRANGE FIGURE

So when one recent morn
ing at 9 o'clock, soon after
Katie had checked in for her
days work, she beheld a
strange figure silently Slipping
along the top floor corridor.
She was shocked.
ffihp figure was slim and
feminine and young you
could feel the youth in her
footsteps as she swung along,
watching the number on each
door she passed.
Suddenly she halted and
raped sharply. Katie started
in pursuit. but before she
could reach the scene, the
intruder was inside and the
door snapped locked.
Now what, Katie Kilfeather
asked herself, as she stood on
the outside, but NOT looking
in, could be the meaning of
this?
For the occupant of that
room was her own current
idol of romantic mankind, the
Broadway juvenile, John Sar-
gent. Ever since he came to
the San Pedro three years
ago, Katie had been his friend
and confidant.
She knew his Broadway uoS
and downs, his ambitions, his
romance. The girls picture
stood on his dresser, whether
he was jobless and penniless,
or riding high in Broadway
favor. Her name was Eula,
and they had been childhood
sweethearts.
