Very encouraging TO hope for the

not rich in such people when the CEN

many No subsequent decade has been
so barren of such names as were the
two first Of the century. and the alb
sence Of Christian spirit in government

abundance OF lip service from the pub

the great Christians Of the century

which is accompanied by a tough a.
brinous deposit covering the vocal
cords and other parts Of the mucous
membrane Of the larynx and trachea.
Physicians are not agreed as to the
true nature Of Group, some believing
that it is simply a diphtheria OF the
larynx. others that it is a disease en-
tirely distinct from diphtheria. The
truth probably is t.iat It is sometimes
one and soTsetimes the other and as

The symptoms OF Group are simply
those Of suffocation. varying in inten-
sity according to the thickness Of the
membrane filling up the larynx and
the degree Of the resulting obstruction.
There may be only slight huskiness
in the voice and cough, or the yoiee
may be very feeble, or even be reduced
to a whisper, while the breathing is
rasping. After the change in the voice
we may look for progressive shortness
Of breath, which may increase rapidly
until suffoeaton is imminent
The skin becomes cold and blue. the
nostrils dilate widely with each inspir-
alton and the whole body heayes with
the effort TO draw air into the lungs

In false Group the attacks come on

Formerly the only hope OF relief in
severe cases Of membranous Group was
in tracheotomy, that is to say. cutting
an opening into the wlndpipe below the
larynx, and inserting curved tube.
through which the air could reach the
bronchial tubes and lungs This is now
almost entirely supplanted by intuba-
tion, or the insertion OF a tube between
the vocal cords. thus restoring the nat

drink, says the Cleveland Leader. It
seems that she had been in the habit
Of alternately taking a mouthful Of
food and a drink Of water or tea. She
did this with such expediency that
ordinarily she had finished her meal
and was away from the table before
her elders were half through. Her
parents demonstrated with her. she be-
ing informed that it was not nice TO
eat SO fast and that 1t was very wrong
for her TO punctuate her mouthfuls Of
food with drinks of water. The climax
was reached when. a few evenings ago
she followed out her usual plan OF al
ternating water and food while eating
soup. The patience OF the paternal
head Of the family was exhausted.
