States In 19o2 the estimate rose to over 100000
eases in this country alone. Reports from England
and Germany would indicate the increase there is nearly as great.
These facts and statistics arc subjects for the great PSYCHOLOGISTS OF
our country, and will sooner or later demand national attention.
The name of this disease undoubtedly originated with the people
who noticed that the symptoms were brought on or made worse dur
ing the hay making period. While the name indicates a disease asso-
catcd with fever, the victim seldom has an increase Of the bodily tenn
peraturc, although he often has the sensation of burning in the eyes,
nose, mouth and skin.
The regular date in which attacks begin corresponds with the date in
which nature rpcns the different pollen. June being the month of roses,
we have some cases which arc poisoned by the rose pollen, which floats
in the air at this time. These cases are as a rule mIder than those af
fcccd later. Then there are some affected by the pollen that floats about
the first week in August, but the greater number Of cases in this locality
are affected by the pollen of raEweed or godnrod, which ripcns about
August IS.
Experiments have been made to count the number Of pollen float
ing in the air during a season. A round glass. such as is used in
mcroscopca1 work, was coated with glycern and exposed to the wind.
IN the beginning Of the season IS pollen would collect on the glass in
Fl hours. AT the height of the season there were $50 pollen collected
in "a hours. 1t was found that when Is pollen were collected in this
way, the symptoms would begin in some cases, while when 800 were
collected violent symptoms would be present. Thus, it can be seen it
is possible that in the future the weather bureau may notify the hay
fever cases when it is safe to venture out.
For the relief and cure OF this disease il is necessary to eliminate
one or more Of the three conditions. Thus, when a patient goes to a
climate free from his particular poisonous pollen, he obtains temporary
immunity. A permanent cure can be made by correcting one or both
Of the other conditions.
Henry Ward Beechcr had hay fever and he wrote the following
from personal experience: you never before even suspected what it
really was to snccze. If the door is open, you sneeze. If a pane OF
glass is gone YOU sneczc. If YOU look into the sunshine, you sneeze. If
YOU snccze once, you snceze 20 times. 1t is riot Of sneezes. First a
single one, like a leader in a flock Of sheep, bolts over; and then, in spite

still obtain, | think the Marguerites of to-day would prefer clothes to
the rows of Jewels; soft, fine lingerie, snken cloaks and skirts, curWng
pfuncs. Women make painful sacrifices for dress, sacrifice themselves,
sacrifice others; labor uscessy; spend precious time and health and
money in the vain pursuit, the idle rivalry.
And for why? Because other women do, because rapidly-changing
styles would leave one FAT behind if strenuous effort were not made.
It may have been thus since close to the days Eve and the super
huous hgIeaf; but as life seems to become more and more cotp1ex with
advancing periods, the question of clothes seems to grow more and more
burdensome. Many and many a woman is urconsciousy drawn into
expenditures for dress out of all proportion to her income; feeling
she cannot fall way behind her companions, believing, TOO, dress very
largely makes the woman.
And mqucstionaty it is a matter of great importance, should be

certainly should not be the paramount thing III life, not be 81 important

over her own circle Of acquaintance, and consider what this woman
will do that she may get fine ramcnt; what that one will leave undorc,

makes one hearsick, weary Of the vanity Of vaniies.

schooling that she may buy a dozen costumes a season; and that is j
crime against motherhood.

speak rather of a remedy, perhaps a preventive. We belle re most de

Hay fever IS the price Of civilization.

Modern methods OF living, especially in America,
increase the nervous diathesis or temperament, which
is the principal condition in the foundation OF this
disease.
An English physician, DR.. Bostock, in 1919, gave
what is supposed to be the first description Of hay
fever. Several years afterwa he collected and re-
ported 50 eases. In 1876 it VS. estimated that there
were between $4,000 to 10000 cases in the United
States. In 1909 the estimate rose to over 10000
