Beware OF Pneumonia.

Tho large number of deaths from
pneumonia this winter has attracted
universal attention and alarm. But the
alarm seems to be vague and general,
and not special enough to be applied by
each man to his own case. When man
catches cold he thinks 1t Is q slight
matter which will soon pass over, and
very likely takes no extraordinary pre-
cautions against its farther progress.
A conspicuous instance of this careless
ness was the case OF Governor Jewell.
He was man of robust frame, and APP
parently good for twenty-five years more
OF life. The particulars are briefly these:
He was taken with chill on
February 2, while in this city. He i'm
mediately went home and was threatened
with pneumonia. -H -
BY the following Tuesday he felt so
much better that he got up. On Tues
day evening he moved from an uncom-
fortably warm room into cooler one.
This brought on a chill and sent him to
bed again. On Thursday he was again
up, took bath and sat for several hours
in his dressipg-gown. That night his
symptoms were alarming, and he died
on Saturday night.
The history Of this case is the history
of scores of others which do not find
their way into print, and is likely to be
the history of hundreds more before
next summer. People win not seem to
learn by anything but dread experience
the necessity of constant care, and the
applicability of the old adage about an
ounce of prevention. A cold, at this
season of the year, is something thai
ought to be attended to Immediately OF
its appearance, and special care should
be taken against exposure for some days
after the apparent cure. Relapses are
apt to be much worse than the original
disease. We hope there may be few
people to whom the experience of other.
