WHooPING COUGH.
How to Handle This Distressing and
- Dangerous Ailnnent.

How to Handle This Distressing and
Dangerous Aiinent-
It is strange how little is thought
of whooping cough and how little
care is taken to prevent it, for it is
in truth dangerous disease. The
mortality statistics show that more
children die from whooping cough
than from measles. Scarlet fever
alone among what are called the dis
eases of childhood causes a greater
number of deaths.
A child with whooping cough
should be as strictly isolated as if
he had scarlatina, and it is very
wrong for a mother to take her in
FAINT with this disease on boats or in
cars, where it is likely to carry in
lection to others. An older child
should be kept away from school
and not allowed to play with other
children, except such, as have al
ready had the malady.
It is usually easy to recognize
whooping cough after the disease is
fully established, for the psroxysmal
cough, going on and on and on until
the child's breath is all but gone
and then succeeded by the long,
noisy inspiration, is unnlstakable.
The disease varies so greatly in
severity in different cases and in
different years that it has been sug-
gested that it would. be wise to ex-
pose children to the infection in a
year when its course was mild. But
it is a very serious thing to expose
a child deliberately to the dangers
of any disease of this nature, for
even in a year of the mildest cpl
demic an individual case here and
there will be severe and even fatal
When it is said that over seventy
drugs have been recommended IN
the treatment of whOoping cough it
NAV be assumed that none of them
has been found very efficacious. This
is not to say that much good may
not be obtained from certain medi-
cines, such as quinine and belladon-
| ma, for example. Yet the main re-
lance in the management of case
of this disease is on hygienic meas
ures.
Although the patient must be
| kept away from school and from
| other children, it must on no ac-
count be kept in the house. Fresh
air and sunshine are the best agents
| in the hygienic treatment. City air
is better than none, but it is best
when poss Die to send the child to
the country, where it can be out
doors all day and not be forced to
! inhale dust and smoke. In stormy
weather, when one must perforce
stay indoors, the playroom windows
should all be wide open, and the
bedroom windows should also be
open.
The food should be plentiful and
nourishing, and whenever the stom-
ach rejects a meal the patient
| should have another at once-at
least a glass of milk and some bread
and butter.-Youth's Companion.
