Who CAN DETECT SMALLPOX IN ITS EARLY
STAGE ?-Variola, or smallpox, besides being
loathsom and offensive diseases that Is known
in the long calendar Of Affections peculiar to
the human family. 1t is not our purpose to
speak Of the ca uses OF smallpox, nor to give
its various symptoms, nor yet it's treatment;
although, to make full and lasting impression
on the minds OF physicians Of the secret which
we are about to divulge, it is proper to refer to
1t is admitted by most of all authors that
small pox is inaugurated by chills, succeeded
by febrile reaction, much like remittent fever;
nausea, thirst, &c In few hours the head
becomes affected with perhaps stupor or drow-
siness, or wakeful and restless feeling. But
these and other symptoms belong to several
tebflle diseases. In from twelve to twenty
four hours, unbeaIable pains approach the
back, and extend down the limbs, and prevade
the whole frame. The physician may now sus-
pect the approach OF small pox, but has moth
ing yet to base an opinion. On the third day
the eruption appears, giving partial relief to
the patient The attention Of the physician is
now called to this eruption, and 1t Is expected
that he will at once decide. He looks at his
patient, but If he is wise man he guards his
tongue for, If the eruptions be sparse scat
tered, it may he a case of chicken pox; again,
if the eruptions be thickly set, with scarlet ap-
sles. Here the doctor is in tight place, be-
cause all the old ladies and everybody else are
on tiptoe ready to fiee from the wrath to come,'
II he says smallpox $500
Now we offer this secret to the profession--so
soon as the eruptons appear, and by pressure
with the point OF the finger may distinctly be
felt the smal; hard substance. precisely as If O.
snoH fine shot, had been placed under The cuti-
Gle Of the skin. This peculiar appearance be-
longs to no other eruptive disease We have
applied the term secret here; for, whilst it is
and has been known to a few physicians, it is
not mentioned in any of the standard authori-
ties, nor does the writer claim the credit of the
discovery. After this all works upon practice
will add this unfailing diagnostic symptom
