DIPHTHERIA.-Twenty years ago diphthe-
ria, at least, by that name, was almost un-
Times, IL has nearly assumed the proportions
OF an epidemic in that city and its neighbo
ing towns. IL is also prevailing I'm other
parts OF the land. Although its ravsges
are chiefly among the young and feeble,
n attacks adults as well as children.
This disease of the throat is said TO
differ from all other forms of sore throat pre-
ylOusly known. Ii is a very malignant and
often fatal disease. 1t was first observed
and described by NJ. Bretonneau, OF Tours,
IN 1918. IL is characterized by a peculiar in-
nammation OF the mucous mem brane OF the
throat, or pharynx, accompanied by the
production of a false membrane. This is
said TO make its appearance in nearly all
cases in the shape OF grayish brown patches
or as one authority says, in the form of a
white spot OF the pharynX or tonsils, from
which II extends, producing at last suffoca-
tion. Hence IL is OF the utmost Importance
TO watch closely the throat OF children who
are apparently i'll with cold and sore throat.
Usually fever and prostration occur in tbs
early stages OF the disease, though in some
Instances the false membrane is formed sud
denly and almost without warning. It
should be remarked that diphtheria, oriina-
rily, is not a difficult disease TO com bat when
IL is treated in time. II the throats of ailing
be little danger that parents Will mi take in-
cipient diphtheria for an ordinary cold. The
truth, that scores of children have died OF
diphtheTia who would in all probability be
no alive and well had the grayish-
brown patches in the throat been dis
covered at their first appearance, and a COM
petent physician been promptly summoned
Ii seems 10 be agreed that the disease is
owing In some measure TO the neglect OF san
ltary measures. Sewer gas, damp cellars,
and the neighborhood OF malarious marshes
are mentioned among the causes OF its pre-
valence. Yet all those existed twenty years
ago, when the disease was rare. IL may be
added that diphtheria is generally believed
10 be contagious. Whether the cause of the
disease be poisoned air or polluted water or
not, ii can do no harm to avoid the violation
OF sanitry rules, especially as regards defec-
tive drainage and sewer gas.
