Smallpox In
Lumber Camps

! DR.. Ell. M. Bracken Of the stat
board of health is now receivin,
reports from the medical in
spectors appointed by the board t,
keep account Of the smallpox il
the lumber camps.
One Inspector reports smallpo,
in a lumber camp at Finlayson
Pine county. At Nary, in tn,
northern portion Of Hubbard
county, two patients are i'll in ;
camp containing fourteen men
besides women and children, all d
whom have been exposed to the
disease.
Sat this camp there developed q
conflict between the town board
of health and the camp officials as
to what the disease was, and an
inspector was sent from Bemidii.
"The state board" said Dir.
Bracken, yesterday received a
telegram from one of the camps III
the north, asking for an inspector
to vaccinate one hundred men.
s'That is one Of the companies
which is trying to carry out our
Instructions said DR.. Bracken.
"But many will not even take Or
binary precautions Lumbermen
who say that there is no smallpox
in the camps are mistaken.
s"The same may be said of those
lumbermen who say that the cases
of smallpox are not smallpox, but
only varioloid. Varioloid is merely
a light attack Of smallpox taken by
"a person partially protected from
the disease. A person may catch
smallpox from varioloid as easily
as from smallpox. ...-#
"The state board wants the lum-
bermen to vaccinate their men,
but some lumber,Den protest that
it is impractlcable. The board
wants them to maintain small iso-
lated detention camps and to dis
infect their camps where smallpox
existed last year. st. Paul Pr

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another for muscles,
and still another for bones. A cor
rect diet will not only nourish a par
ticular part of the body, but it will
sustain every other part. Yet, how
ever good your food may be, its nutri-
ment Is destroyed by Indigestion or
dyspepsia. You must prepare for
their appearance or prevent their
coming by taking regular doses of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates
the liver to healthy action, purifes
the blood and makes you buoyant and

The Symptoms
Of Smallpox

| Now that smallpox threatens tt
Invade every corner Of this section
/ this winter and already has per
lhaps hundred victims in Bel
trami county, il is well for every,
one to be on the lookout to en-,
terrain it. As the disease in many
cases is 50 mild that it requires
| the assistance of competent doc
tors to locate it, tits we'll to study
up on the symptoms.
Dr.. Ell. M. Bracken, secretary oil
the state board Of health, says
the form of smallpox at present
prevalent is what is known in
the profession as varioloid, a mild
form of the disease. This differs
from chickenpox, in that a yiru-
lent form of smallpox could be
contracted from the yarloloid, that
is to say, that patient suffering
from the mild form which is fatal
to the extent of about one in
seventy, can transfer the more
virulent and deadly type of disease.
Asked as to the first symptoms
Of smallpox, DR.. Bracken stated
that three or four days before the
eruption appears the patient feels
quite sick and has more or less
pain in the head and limbs, par
ticularlF in the back and loins;
the temperature rises considerable,
sometimes as high as l04 degrees,
and sometimes not so much.
This is accompanied by general
feeling of discomfort.
The early symptoms, he doctor.
says, are sometims mistaken for.
typhoid fever during the warmer.
seasons Of the year end for grip.
during the cold season.
At the end Of three or four days
from the first symptoms the erup-.
ton appears, which is apt to be.
on the exposed part of the body
at first on the entire body.
The first appearance Of the erup-
lion is that Of little red spots that
are hard to the touch and might
be described as having a shorty
feeling, that is as though there
we're shots under the skin.
Following the eruption the red
spots change into blisters or
vesicles filled with fluid, ahdwithin
] few days the fluid becomes white
ind later drys up, leaving scabs.
