She ex amined it critically and said : "Your hand has boon badly nog- octod , and needs treatment. The skin is bad in color , the knuckles ook dark , and the nails are dreadful , [ f you will bo seated until the doctor s through with the patient ho is now .roating , ho will attend to you. " While waiting , an examination of the curiosities of the oflico was nmus- ng. In n cose on ono side of the room wore wax models of hands of all shapes and sizes. Fat htutds , thin bony hands , some with long fingers , some with short - hands as they should bo , and halida as they should not bo. Opposite these a show case contained an assortment of soaps , salves , and lotions , and n lot of gloves , coarse and clumsy , that seemed strangely out of place m a place devoted to hand beauty , The young woman said : "They are cos- metic gloves. Those are only a few of the kinds that wo use. The doctor prepares others use.to suit the 'needs of different patients. These nro prepared to whiten the hands. They nro spread inside with n preparation of yolk of egg , oil of sweet almonds nnd tincture of ben zoin. The double wrap at the wrist oifectually protects the cuff from being soiled. The gloves next to thnm are to soften the hands ; and the lining is saturated with a mixture of honey , myrrh , wax and rose water. The gloves in the corner are still more powerful. tfThoy coiitain na strong agents as can safely be applied to the hands , nnd cannot bo used when the skin is chapped , scratched or broken in any place. They are lined with a preparation of tartaric oil , lemon juice , oil of bitter almonds , brown Windsor soap and sbrao other ingre dients. " Spmo nufl'od-out bags looking like boxing gloves proved to bo bran mit tens , and the attendant explained the use of a box of curious-looking silver thimbles about two inches long : "There are finger tips for shaping the ends of the fingers. Tapering lingers are not an impossibility. Ladies are willing to undergo incon venience and injury for the sake of tapering waists , but make no effort to improve the eh > po of their hands , " As a lady closely veiled panto out from the back parlor and left the I loom , the doctor announced himself ready to attend to another patient. The treatment was begun by scouring V the handd with line white Hint sand , soap and water. Then followed the bran bath , which is merely rubbing the hands with bran until thoroughly ] ry. Stains and dark lines about the tnuckles were then touched with some icid on a bit of chamois skin , and the lands wore anointed with cold cream ind held in warm towels until dry. This process being completed , the doctor rotiuostoU his patient to sit bo- "oro n table near a window , and , seat- ng himself opposite and opening a case of ivory instruments , ho asked : "Aro you superstitious about nail spots ? " "No , What do you mean ? " "It it an old belief that whjto spots upon the nails bring good fortune , while block ones are considered un- ucky. Both are ugly , however , and you have no prejudices I will re move them ; " and BO saying ho applied a block , pitchy substance that smelt if sulphur to each spot , and during ho ten minutes ho allowed it to ro- uain there employed himself in push- ng down , with a dull , ivory instru- nont , the skin growing around the )390 of the nail. When the salvo was oinovml from the nails the fingera were dipped into a pink wash , and hon polished with n powder nnd h.imnm Hldn brunli n til uauli nail lionu like u conch shell. By this time it seemed as though cribbler'a cramp had seized each fin ger , and a strong desire was felt to hrust the aching hands into the ) ocketa , "Character is shown by the ahupe t the nnils , " s.iid the doctor. "NYhun liey are long and narrow it is a sign f dullness , and when curved they ndicate rapacity , Short nails imply joodness. You do not unVot that , I oo , " said he , as he tightened his grip pan the lingers and commenced filing ff the nnils nt each corner , leaving mm as sharp and pointed as the iamb nail of n scribbling dervish , Thu reporter declined any further ttention and , paying the doctor a ollar , departed with his beautiful lands in his pockets.
