She made a sound. II was, per-

He said sharply:
you're not unhappy? What Is II,

She answered him at once with
the low, soft-breathed word:
Afraid"
-Afraid?- He was 80 astonished
he let her go, standing back pace
to see her better.
He realized then the truth OF her
words. II was fear that had lent
that urgency to her footsteps. 1t
was fear that made her small white
intelligent face blank and stupid.
Fear that dilated those wide-apart
eyes.
He said incredulously:

Brazilians Would

dor.
The same influential Brazilians
are fed up with the present United
States ambassador 10 Brazil,
Adolph A. Berle. They say that
Berle, one OF the original brain
trusters" q the last adminiStTa-
ton. is a tine fellow but not tenn
perameutally suited TO the person
ality OF the country in which he is
stationed.
Mrs. Borle, they add, is a remark
able woman, a graduate physician
and seasoned social worker. But
she inks some Of the people with
whom she is supposed 10 make
friends by an oyer-eager interest
in their, shall We say, manner or
living
For example, not long ago she
knocked at the door OF Brazilian
home and said she would like TO
inquire into its sanitary condi-
tions. The Brazilian householder,
who happened 10 be a graduate OF
the Massachusetts, Institute OF Tech
nology at Boston, was not pleased
with such interest He thought he
knew how 10 manage his own sani-
tary conditions.
For many reasons many Brazili-
ans would like a change in the
United States diplomatic represen-
tative. They have picked Davies
as Berries successor because of
Davies long experience in diplo-
macy as United States ambassador
10 Russia and to Belgium, and be-
cause they think both Davies and
his wife would be both capable
and charming emissaries from the
North American republic. They
can foresee the popularity and ele-
CANT hospitality Of Mr.. Davies.
Brazil likes a dash OF sparkle
along with intelligence, these advo-
Gates Of change say. Now is a
critical time in United States-Bra-
lillian relations. Send US somebody
who will make US feel truly friend
ly and somebody we would enjoy
meeting often. Please. please
no more reformers, Not now"
Would Mr.. and Mrs. Davies like
10 go TO Brazil? That | cannot
say. But in addition TO the social
and diplomatic reasons for the Of
fer and acceptance OF such a post
there is a sound fundamental rea-
son why Mr.. and Mrs. Davies might
well improve Latin-American rela-
lions II they were in Brazil.

No One Remedy
Selected For
Ringworm

BY HERMAN BUSDrSEN. W. {
ALTHOUGH rapid strides are
being made in the treatment Of
rirgworm, there is no one remedy
which seems 70 be employed salts
faetorily in all cases Of ringworm
Of the toes and feet, commonly
known rs athletes foot. just what
treatment is TO be employed de-
ponds on the severity Of the con-
dition and upon how long II has
been present.
According to Doctor Herman
Goodman of New York. the doctor
must decide just what period Of
development the disease is in be
fore treatment is started. For eX-
ample, al the beginning Of the con-
d.tion some solution containing
substances that kill the ringworm
parasite may prove the most salts

Deep Infection
II, on the other hand, the infec-
ton is deep in the cracks in the
skin between the toes, substances
must be employed which will Tene-
trate into the skin. II eallouses
have formed and the skin has
thickened, substances such as sail
cylic acid which will dissolve the
callous, must be used together
with some antiseptie 10 get I'd Of
the parasites.
II is also important that what
ever drugs are selected do not
cause further irritation and in
hammation. Furthermore, the pre-
parations must reach the fungi or
ringworm parasites and destroy
them.
Blisters Presem
In the first stage Of ringworm Of
the toes and feet, when there are
blisters present, such substances
as sodium thiosulfate, potassium
permanganate or iodine may be
employed. Then, later on, iodine
with camphor and alcohol, or salt
cylic acid and alcohol is used. Once
the callouses have formed and the
skin is thickened, salicylic acid
and benzoic acid may be used in
the form Of an oily preparation
or ointment.
When the condition seems to
have been completely cleared up,
the use Of X-ray or ultraviolet
ray treatments may be helpful in
returning the skin to its normal
condition.
Persons with ringworm Of the
feet and toes should not attempt
self-treatment. Rather, it is i'm
portant that they have an ex-
animation made by the doctor TO
determine just what stage Of the
disorder is present The physician
will then be able to select the pro-
per preparations and employ them
in the correct amounts TO quickly
overcome the difficulty.

There can be no fundamental
