Stories abound TO illustrate the power
possessed by great speakers and act
ors to stir the emotions 10y the tones
of the voice. 1t is said Of the elder
Booth that he brought tears to the eyes
of company upon one occasion by the
way in which he uttered the opening
words, Our Father" of the Lord's
Prayer.
4 story is told of the great Irish ora
tor, O'COnnell. An attack had been
made upon him in the house of COM
mons. When O'Connell arose TO reply,
his lofty brow was black with thunder
and his arm uplifted as If TO strike.
Then, checking himself, he said. But
the gentleman says he loves Ireland"
Lowering his tone to the ripping muir
muir OF a summer brook, he continued,
Il have no words of bitterness or re-
proach for any man who loves Ire
land" The pathos in the fragmentary
utterance of the last word brought
tears to the eyes Of many veterans OF
the house.

men Nevertheless, an intolerance

an heirloom of the dark ages, when

exact science to-day, and never will
be, our present light enables us to
share it with an intelligent public.
While most people preserve strange
Indifference in regard to knowledge
of whatever pertains to the health of
themselves and families, the interest
in such matters is growing wonder
fully, as Is evidenced by the support
given to an ever-increasing number of
popular health journals.
While the standard of medical edu-

our medical colleges, there is so much

curious to many to understand how

Years ago. when the Italian bees

state of the atmosphere from day to
day. Winter a year ago the air was
very dry and predisposed to pneumon-
ia. There were a great many cases.
Last winter the air was not so dry
and as result la grippe appeared bot
there was less pneumonia. This sum-
mer has been rainy and my hygrome-
ter has shown an excessive humidity
water suspended in the air. AS a
result malarIal and typhoid" trou-
bles appeared and are still present.
The saltwater ponds IN this section,
also overlooking springs and wells,
under certai rain falls and the hot
sun, along with decayed vegetation,
contaminate the air and water to
produce the majority of our summer
fevers There are no doubt filthy sour
ces of infection, also, IN our towns.
The mosquito may, rarely, convey the
infection from the sick to the well.
With few exceptions the summer and
fall fevers which we have are malarial
in character. In the month of March,
when atmospheric conditions are fav-
orable, the chills appear; later come
the intermittent type of malarial fever,
characterized by a violent chill, fever
and sweat, fever some times
reaching 1O6 degrees, but the temper
allure tails with the sweat to normal.
Next come the remlttent type of ma
la rial fever. 1t is a severe type of
malarial disease, and the temperature
never at any time becomes normal.
This disease closely resembles typhoid
fever But the step-ladder temperature
and pea soup stools peculiar TO ty-
phoid, are absent.
Hemorrhages and other symptoms
are similar to typhoid. The LESSONS
are In the abdomen. The estivo-
autumnal parasite can be found IN the
blood cells, the typhoid bacillus is alb
sent This remittent or estivo. autumn
nal fever is the slow fever which the
doctors have misdiagnosed as "ty-
phoid." Quinlne Is an absolute poison
in this fever and is the drug which
plays havoc with the patient-it
mains or kills. If the patient lives
through the quinine ordeal, the disease
is only suppressed and it re-appears at
another time. This is not the case
when the disease has been properly
diagnosed and properly treated.
The Breckenridge news. (Cloverport, Ky.) 1876-1955, 1905-09-06

Quinine mad is the state of the
dominant school of medicine to-day.
The routine and indiscriminate use of
the drug Dy most of these physicians,
has induced many people to likewise
abuse it by becoming habitual users.
There Is not the slightest indication
for qulnine in typhoid fever nor in
the remIttent type of malarial fever.
1t is positively contra indicated.
Quinine converts wild fever into an
exceedingly grave one, leaving the
patient manned by i'll health ii he or
she happens to survive. Sufferers from
chronic disease applying to me for
treatment frequently remark, II nave
not felt well since 1 had the fever. F"
To anyone with knowledge of the
facts such remark condemns the
treatment which was given for the
fever. The disease, instead of having
b en- cured, has been Suppressed. This
is why they have it again aud again.
Other harmful drugs are included
in the common treatment of these
f vers. AntIpyrine, scetanilid, phe-
nacetlne are powerful heart depress-
ants. Their evil effects on the patient
are then partly counteIacted by stry.
Gimme and whIskey. These often
fail to counterfeit and the patient
dies. Even the strychnine and the
whiskey are physiologicslly inimical
to each other. Lastly, too strong and
powerful bowel antiseptics are used.
They add fuel to the fires of the fever
and increase peristalsis favoring
hemorrhage. When the latter happens,
acetate of lead and opium are often
resorted to, or morphine given. An
iron constitution is necessary to sur
vive the common treatment. Such
treatment is responsible for the
trightful mortality.
Under proper treatment these dis
eases ~ are not serious enough to be
feared(2) do not appear again In those
who have had them g. leave the system

Regarding the report to the effect the

quarantined against refugees from the
South, DR.. J. NJ. Mccormack, secretary
of of the state board, has given out the
following interview:
Kentucky has not established a
quarantine, but has simply extended its
regulations of August 3, so as to require
that no railroad or steamboat company
shall furnish transportation to or bring
into this state any person from any of
the infected districts of Louisiana or
Mississippi who do not hold a certificate
from some proper state or United States
health official that he has remained at
one of their detention camps for at
least seven days. All of the lines from
the South have been notified of this reg
ulation and it is now in full operation. "
