The second illustration shows an eruption of larger flattenedpapules, most of which are tending to become squamous or slightlycrusted. This tends to give the face an eczematous appearance, andsuch an eruption has been considered by some to be a combination ofsyphilis and seborrhceic eczema. The third illustration shows the miliary form of the papularsyphilide. The small conical papules tend to aggregate in clusters, andpresent an appearance quite different from the pea-sized lesions of thelenticular form of the papular syphilide, which are far more common. The fourth illustration portrays a still rarer form of early syphilis.The papules are of the large flat type, and many of them have becomesuperficially ulcerated, the surface being moist or diphtheritic andsuggestive of mucous patches upon the skin. These lesions tend toheal in the centre and thereby assume an annular form. PLATE LXXXIV.

The plantar surface, while not so frequently affected by syphilisas the palms, and more frequently overlooked when it is affected,may be the seat of a papular eruption quite similar to that so oftenseen upon the palms. In either location the eruption is so charac-teristic and unlike that arising from any other cause that the diagnosismay be considered as written upon the skin. The late tuberculo-squamous eruption occurring upon either thepalms or the soles (as seen in the second illustration) is not alwaysso characteristic, and in many cases its resemblan
