Anemia means a condition In which
the blood is deficient in quality or
quantity. 1t is a question among ply
sicians whether there is ever an ac-
tual permanent reduction In the total
amount of the blood. The quantity
must vary, Of course, from hour to
hour, according to the amount of fluid
that Is drunk, and the amount that IS
lost by perspiratlon and in other ways.
but 1t IS probable that the average re-
mains about the same from day to day.
except In cases Of actual starvation
and deprivation Of water.
Anemia, then, Is mainly a question
Of the makeup Of the blood. that is, Of
the number Of its red corpuscles. or
cells, and the relative amount OF hem
oglobju-the coloring mattpr-which
these contain. The blood is Il complex
fluid, but in simple terms It may be
said to be a salty solution, containing
two kinds Of cells-the red and the
white corpuscles The white ones are
the scayengers of the body as well as
the policemen and the soldiers. They
protect the body from the disease
germs which threaten its existence.
The red corpusces, on the other hand.
are the commssary department. They
bring to the tissues the oxygen which
they need and remove the gaseous
waste products.
If the red corpuscles and the sub
ct v,-1,{
composed, the hemoglobin, are reduced
in amount, the tissues suffer for lack
OF oxygen, and there is a lowering of
all the vital processes. The Iessened
proportion OF hemoglobin accounts for
the paleness which is the chief out
ward sign Of anemia.
1t Is common to speak Of two forms
Of anemia-primary and secondary.
Primary Is the term used wher the
anemla can be traced to no definite
cause, but seems to be disease in It
self. Secondary Is the word used when
the anemia is evidently the result Of
some other condition, such as wasting
diseases or poor nourishment. II Is
then only one of the symptoms Of such
underlying state
Among the chief cau-cs Of secondary
anemia are drains upon the system by
frequent losses of blood. or by dia.rhea
or other wasterul discharges. chronic
poisoning by lead or mercury, hy the
essential poslons Of certain diseases.
such as rheumatism and tuberculosis.
