SLEEPING SICKNESS.
The Grip This Dreadful Disease Takes
Upon It's Victims.

The course of the dreadful disease,
sleeping sickness, is an extremely slow
one. The first stage is said to last a
wear or more, and the cause of the dis
ease may be In the blood long before
any symptoms whatever present them
selves. The patient has occasional
fever; indeed, disease hitherto called
Gambia fever has recently been recog-
nized as the first stage Of sleeping
sickness. 1t is said that the swelling
of the lymphatic glands of the neck Is
a characteristic early symptom. This
was known in 1903 to DR.. Winterbot-
tom, who states that slave traders,
recognizing the symptom of a fatal
disease, would not buy slaves who had
this glandular enlargement. The pa
tent. feels we'll and strong and Is able
to 90 about his usual occupations.
The second stage is indicated by a
distinct change in the appearance OF
the patient. His expression grows
heavy and dull; he becomes apathetic,
lies around a great deal and cannot
exert himself. With the progress of
the disease these symptoms become
more marked; walking and speech be-
come difficult and finally impossible.
During the last week the sufferer lies
in a state OF complete coma, from
which the illness derives its name.
Often during the second stage Of the
disease the brain becomes affected,
and some Of the patients try to run
away into the forests or sWamps,
where they die of exposure or starva-
ton. To prevent this the relatives Of
a sufferer frequently chain him down
until the time comes when he can no
longer move.-McClure's Magazine.
