strongly of a certain old school Oh

Quite a number Of travelling men
have found it strange that orr QUAR-
antlne regulations specially exclude
them. 1t was done for the reason
that their business made them take
greater risks than the ordinary in-
di7idual. Nor is il to he deated, in
the face of recent Occurrences TINT
some of these drummers are moi over
scrupnlous ia regard 10 adhering to
the ruth when it conflicts with their
business interests. Mr.. Galliond, a
prominent citizen Of New Iberia, a
director III one of the national banks
and a mar who stood well 10 the
community. is a travelling represen-
tatiye Of a New Orleans firm. Ac-
cording 10 published statements, he
visited Franklin lat week during
@|%"
The existence OF yellow fever there
and returned home to his family.
When questioned as to having been
in Franklin he denied it mos, EN-
phaiically in the presence Of several
gentlemen. Upon investigation it
was found that GalIiand had been
in Franklin on the day IN question,
and that he had not only exposed
his family and the community 10
possible coutagion, but deliberately
lied about it. Of course all drum
mers are not alike, but when one Of
them is 50 indiscreet the people can
not be blamed for distressing all of.
them.

what is Yellow Fever:

f --
In view of the excitement occa.
stoned by the outbreak of yellow
tever, or our gulf coast, it is peril
nent to make some inquiry into the
nature Of this foul malady. Dir. G.
Fl. Tebault, Of New Orleans, who
has been identified with the treat
ment Of yellow fever for more than
thirty years, contributes to the Plea
ynne, Of that city, a thorough dag
nosis Of the disease. This able au-
thority says !:
yellow fever is an Infections,
acute and eiuptive fever. The erup.
tion is so faint in some cases that it
is overlooked before the physician
sees the case, but if seen early and a
close inspection is made an eruption
will be found on the skin and on the
mucous membranes of the mouth and
fauces. The eruption indicates that
there 10 something of an irritant
character in the blood, nd is doubt
less the cause of the changes found
In the internal ~viscera. especially the
stomach and kidneys, producing 10
the stomach that softened condition
found 10 its mucous coat, which gu
periuduces black yomit through
liberation into some blood vessel of
the stomach. This irritant substance
circulating in the blood damages the
kidney and is the cause of the albu-
men found 10 the ntine associated
with the disease. Yellow fever has
three stages, the first. febrile. is ush-
cred 10 suddenly with a chilly sensa.
ton. and often a distinct rigor.
Fever rises rapidly; there is more or
less headache and other pains. and
more or less Irritability of the stom
ach with nausea. The first stage
lasts from twenty.honrs TO three
days. This followed BY a remission,
or second stage. where the fever
subsidies, pains disappear, and the
patient rapidly convalpsces or emer-
ges into the third stage. known as
The stage of collapse. III this stage
the fever becomes very much higher;
the gastric i%rritabiliiy increases into
great aus and repeated vomiting.
4 lbumen is found in the urine, and
[%reqnpnfly blood oozes from all lhe
surfaces and is passed !y the
Black vomit is associated
with this stage, the patient lies from
exhaustion or gradually RECEIVERS by

Don't believe all the rumors you
hear about yellow fever cases. Some
people are SO timid aud easily
frightened that the least ache or pain
is enough to convince them, or some
others, that they are the victims of
the malady. Remember that the

most excellent and we are strongly

no danger Of any fever here.
