Ear Troubles With Grin.

frOH Ino new York Herald.
There has been prevailing the last few
weeks curious complication of grip in the
shape Of deep-seated Inflammation of the
ear. which is attended with severe pain and
considerable swelling Of the affected part.
The cause of the special trouble is sup
posed to be the invasion of the inner ear
by the grip microbe through the tissues Of
the throat.
Why the original disease should take on
such disposition, contrary to what has
been noted before, is hard to explain. In
the majority of cases the secondary in
nammation can be abated by prompt pal
liative local treatment while in exceptional
cases, as in that of Dr. Kimball, whose
death was reported yesterday. there is ex-
tension OF the process not only to the in
ternal chambers of the ear, but to the
membranes Of the brain.
The force of the suppuration is generally
spent upon the protuberant bony process
posterior to the auditory opening. and when
such a condition exists the only relief to
be obtained is by an operation Of perfora-
ton Of the involved structures, which gives
vent to the pent-up secretions.
The hearing Of strange noises to which
the patient WAS subject in the earlier part
Of his illness. SO far from being an uncom-
mon occurrence under the circumstances,
is one Of the usual symptoms which attend
the deeply seated ini1ammations of the re-
gion in question. 1t is even present in or
dtnary earache and usually preeedes the
rupture Of the drum membrane, which oc-
casions the discharge SO often associated
with the temporary relief Of pain.
