Asthma n SymptOrn,

Asthma is not disease per Sc as is
popularity supposed, but symptom Of
disease. 1t is spoken of by different
names-as, for instance, hay asthma,
rose or June asthma, and ipecac asthma.
Some people will get asthma from sleep
ing on feather pillow; others as soon as
they come in contact with certain ami
mails. as dog, a cat, or squirrel. Pro-
fessor Austin Elints cannot sleep on a
feather pillow without getting asthma.
and so susceptible is he to it that he is
able to detect the feathers when they are
placed under his pillow by persons
whose design it is to catch him on
his theory. Cases have come to notice
where the asthmatic symptom was
developed in men who happened to get
hold of blanket upon which dog
had been sleeping the previous day.
Asthma may be symptom of empty
soma of the lungs. and may last for
weeks or even months. Two men who
were treated by me, one having nasal
polypus and the other stone in the blad-
der; both had asthma. To persons sus-
ceptible to it asthma is developed from
working in the dust around thrashing
machines, and others suffer from it as
soon as they enter an apothecary's shop
where ipecac is kept. Nor is dropsy any
thing but symptom Of disease or re-
suit of it. Defined, generally, asthma is
manifestation of disease of the nervous
system which causes contraction of the
bronchial tubes. 1t may be seen as a
spasmodic contraction OF the nerves, and
of course may be symptom of heart
disease or some other disease. Z. V.

''Of modes of suicide. poisoning is by

almost always poison themselves, unedu-

frequency with which paris green is used
Is due simply TO the easaness with which
it can be obtained. The laws governing
