How PNEUMONIA CATCHES ITs Worms -
A gentleman recently from Bedie, and who is
withal a close observer, tells the Enterprise
that one great cause of pneumonia in Bedie
and in all other new camps is the lack of
proper mattresses. Instead of a good com
Portable mattress there is often nothing but a
thin pull abortion, or tick made of gunny
sacks and scantily stuffed with hay or straw
He says the cold gets at the men from below
coming in through and around the edges of the
mattress. Men pile blankets over them until
the upper parts of their bodies are bathed in
perspiration and they are nearly smothered,
yet all the time streaks of cold are coming in
from below and attacking them when they can
do the most harm. He recommends all min
ers sleeping thus in cabins to spread pair of
good thick blankets over their mattress, when
they will sleep in perfect comfort and pneu,
monia will not reach up from below and pull
them down to the grave.
