Francois Country
Important Factor
in Invasion Plan
BY Charles p. Stewart

One Of my readers questions a
statement OF mine recently, to the
effect that Spain is a pretty Com
munistic country. He does not
exactly deny what ! said, but re-
marks that II is news to him, and
adds that he would like 10 know
the source OF my information.
The fact is that Spain has been
characterized by a wide streak of
radicalism since away back in
monsTchist days.

To contend that the Spaniards

The commonest of alas is likely
TO be the case in skin eruptions on
the hands Of anybody-are those
due to ringworm infection.
The housewife macerates the
skin of her hands in hot, soapy
dishwater and makes it an easy
field for entrance of the little
spores of the ringworm which are
scattered around on the arms Of
chairs, window lodges, in fact,
nearly everywhere in our modern
civilization.
Another large group are aller-
gic or contact forms of dermati-
tbs. Besides plant contacts, If she
has a garden, the housewife may
make contact with soaps, cleans
ing powders, dyes, polishes and
many other substances which in
about five per cent Of people cause
a dermatitis.
In this group - not strictly
speaking. of housewives is nail
polish eczema. This occurs not
particularly frequently, but often
enough TO make II a troublesome
condition in those who use nail
polish, particularly Of the darker
and more ornate kinds.
Locations of Eczema
While nail polish eczema usu-
ally appears first on the skin
around the nail beds and at the
ends Of the fingers, it may fool
everybody for a long time by APP
pearing on the face and eyelids,
which the patient touches with
her recently polished nails. In
order of frequency, after the I'm
gers and eyelids, the location for
this eczema may be the neck, chin,
cheeks, tips of the ears and the
arm pits.
In studying a group OF these
cases it was found that it was not
the dye in the polish which caused
the eruption; colorlcss lacquer
produced it almost as often as
the colored nail polish. Skin patch
tests done on a series of patients
with % substances used in the
manufacture of nail polish showed
that a substance called formalde-
hyde-sulphonamide resin was the
only one which gave a positive re-
action in the patients and a mega
tive reaction in the control sub
jects.
The control subjects were those
who were not sensitive TO polish
or lacquer and who did not have
an eczema. This causative agent,
this resin, is widely used in mod
ern manufacturing. Such familiar
household objects as imitation
feathers, glass beads. metal jew
elry, hairpins, pencils, celluloid
playing cards and straw hats
may be encoated with this resin.

Answer: A kidney floats when
the ligaments that hold it in place
become loosened. This happens
very often in thin people, who also
tend to have dropped stomach and
dropped intestines. 1t seldom
causes any trouble, although occa-
sionally there are attacks of pain
when the kidney gets twisted.
