Written for N'EA Krrvic In extremely hot and damp weath er the skin oiten breaks out with prickly heat or a heat rash. Small plnhead -aired red or pink swellings, sometimes blister-like, appear on the skin. It Is caused by overheat ing the sweat glands which are lo cated almost everywhere just beluw the surface of the skin. Occasion ally these small red swellings of the skin come together and form larger blisters. In places where there Is friction on the skin, such as under a belt or a wrist watch band, the skin is particularly likely to break out. This is probably because the band tenas to prevent the free outflow of sweat. Other places on the body particu larly likely to be affected are the back, and the sides of the abdomen. TYPICAL SYMPTOMS Prickling, burning sensations, and tingling are common. Itching is usually mild. When the blisters rupture, small crusts form on the skin. The affected skin usually feels warm and dry, especially after ex. erase. On these places the sweat glands are shut off and therefore there Is an absence of sweating. In northern areas prickly heat is generally little more than an an noyance. In tropical countries, however, severe Inflammation of the deeper layers of the skin may be produced. There Is no great problem In diagnosis. . Nearly everyone who has prickly heat knows what 11 XXJ jJe3? mmmmcm CONSOLES.

But what made it a really gala event was the arrival of Eddie's circus, almost simultane ously. Eddie's oldest, most treasured friends are circus people. He knows them all and they all know him. The circus was his life from youth. Hes In his 10 s now and has left the road. His first thought was "if only my old real pals were here to share tills Joy with me." Eddie Is that kind of a guy. He got his wish. Immediately came Cole Brothers circus, with , w hlch Eddie spent many of his cir cus years, and brought scores of the friends he d wished for. , Eddie took me to the circus lot to spend tlie whole day with his cro- lies. In the dining tent the colored I boys w ho served us approached I Eddie with wide-eyed awe; and with j a common request: ! "Mister Eddie, would you mine eff : ah Jest teched you head?" Eddie hadn't the 100 grand yet, but the boys had faith In that old supersu-1 tioiv I ... "You've got to meet Black Moun- , tain." said Eddie. "He s the fellow who stuck himself up." Mostly circus people have nick- names which are evident enough, i You can understand why one Is Gold j Tooth McCarthy and w hy Eddie, I w ho wears a very large hat. 1 Big i Head, but I never learned w hy Wal- ter Garland Is called Black Moun tain. He s neither black nor moun- ! tainlike. He's rather short, yet. near j TO. he has muscles of Iron and is father o a nine months babe. He's ' the man who matched an elephant ' aratnst two ferocious bulls at Juares. t Mexico. His elephant won, un-' harmed. I Black Mountain one time vowed to swear off his losses In the circus family's stud game. He accumulated 1 a goodly bank roll when he quit, and carried It in a money belt. In time : he weakened but limited himself to nsk only a modest sum. When he lost that ho left the car. The money ' in his belt belonged to a reformed ' Black Mountain who tisd forsworn poker; and It could not be touched. : ... j Zack Terrell, who Just sold the Cole show, heard a one-sided con-, eersation out In the car vestibule j He opened the door and says he saw Black Mountain with a six shooter at his own temple. This Is wha' Zack says he heard: "Oive me that monev! Come clean: this Li a stick-up. Hurry uo. ' give me that dough you're got In : vour belt, or I U blow your brains out." I It was Black Mountain holding himself up at the point of a gun. In a few minutes he returned to the game with a wad that would choke an ox. the fruits of his conscience appraslns? banditry. The other side of Black Mountain is that he's a sizeable nurseryman j and landscaper in North Carolina. 1 When he can t follow the circus any j more that's what he ll retire to. j Many of these Interesting people have some sort of a security are In I the hole. Eddie Lewis Just got his ace: and everybody who knows him , Is as tickled as he. ... Ouns are not a necessary adjunct 1 of today's circus but one happens to 1 figure In this yam again. Jess Bui- 1 lock, who rose to be treasurer of the Barnum show, and Eddie Lewis, wsy back when, were touring with Howe's Great London circus. The , little show was a hapless outfit, al- I ways in some kind of trouble. i Jess had a tiny office at one end of the concessions car where a crap ! game was In session. There was Just room In the office for a small table j and a chair. Jess was In there Dividend Payable June 30th Deposit Now To Participate in the December Dividend.

A player who was done to any negotiable object tossed a revolver In the game to rover a bet. Eddie picked it up to examine It and It find. The bullet went through ths partition, straight at Jess Bullock. After the shot all waa silent. Ed die was sure he had killed Bullock. He rushed to the door and saw Bul lock calmly engaged with his rec ords, and unperturbed. "You alive. Jess?" panted Eddie. "Must be," replied Jess. "Thank Ood." said Eddie. "I thought I'd killed you." The bullet passed within an Inch of Bullock's head but he hardly looked up as ho said. "Think noth ing of It, Eddie. Anything ran hap pi n with this damned show." And that's pretty much true of any circus. Anything can happen and usually does. iCopyright, 1W9.
