ng or itching or fever differs from all otherskin eruptions. The roseola is entirely superficial and spontane-ously disappears after a variable period, to be succeeded by otherforms of eruption. The syphilides of the secondary stage appear on both theskin and the mucous membrane, and may be erythematous (redblotches), macular (pigmented spots), squamous (scaly), vesicular(sac-like), pustular (pimples), tubercular (nodules), rupial(crusts), or they may assume any intermediate form. The syphiliticsore throat, which usually accompanies any of these forms, isreally the eruption upon the mucous membrane of the pharynx. 256 ORAL PATHOLOGY AND PRACTICE. The mucous plaques, or mucous patches of the mouth, are thesame eruptions, changed in their appearance by the character ofthe tissue in which they are manifested, and by their environ-ments or surroundings. For the purposes demanded by the present study all the syphil-ides may be divided into three classes—the macular, the papular, Fig. 86.

The first when they appear upon external cuta-neous surfaces are primarily only pigmented spots, like freckles,not raised above the surrounding tissues, tending to circulargroupings, and of a coppery color. They may entirely disappearand be succeeded by, or they may assume, the papillary form, andspread. They appear innocent and give the patient no incon-venience. THE SECONDARY STAGE OF SYPHILIS. 257 In the mouth and upon mucous membrane the eruption isusually first seen in this macular form,—that is, of reddish or coppercolored spots, not raised above contiguous surfaces. They may beobserved over the arch of the soft palate, upon the tongue andpillars of the fauces, on the buccal surfaces, and along the mucousmembrane where it doubles upon itself and where it is hidden fromordinary observation. Especially are they apt to appear beneaththe tongue and upon the folds of the membrane in that loca
