Gently and is known as Morkus Sab
baticus, or Sunday sickness, and is a
disease peculiar to church members.
The attack comes on suddenly every
Sunday; no symptoms are felt on Sat
urday night; the patient sleeps we'll,
and eats hearty breakfast, but about
church time the attack comes on and
continues until the services are over
for the morning. Then the patient
feels easy and eats good dinner. In
the afternoon he feels much better
and is able to take walk, talk about
politics and read the Sunday papers;
he eats hearty supper, and about
church time he has another attack
and stays at home. He retires early,
sleeps we'll and wakes up on Monday
morning refreshed and able to go to
work, and does not have any symp-
toms of the disease until the following
Sunday.-Brooklyn Eagle.
