Lockjaw. known to medical men as
tetanus, is one of those terrible mall
aides which occasion great suffering
and battle the best attempts of the pro-
fession to- successfully treat them.
Commencing with stiffness of the jaw
muscles, tetanus quickly goes on to
produce violent commissions. which ut
terly exhaust its victims strength.
while preventing him from taking food
owing to his being unable TO open his
mouth; hence its more popular desig-
nation of lockjaw. Investigations have
shown that this dreadful disease is due
to a microbe which commonly exists
in ordinary soil and the surface mud
of the streets. which habitat explains
the reason why tetanus frequently at
tacks persons who have been injured
in street accidents and had their
wounds contaminated with refuse and
dust from the roadway. Although no
certain cure for tetanus is yet known.
progress is being made with injections
of anti-tetanic serum.-London Tele-
