"A young surgeon. covered with

In an earlier day it was by no
means an unusual thing during the
fever and ague season in Indiana to
meet persons who apologized for tenn
porary deafness by saying that they
had been taking quinine. The New
York Medical ournal reports case
where girl sixteen years old in the
course of Is minutes took 80 grains OF
quinine. Following this heroic treat
ment she complained two hours later
of intense headache and severe ringing
in the ears. By the following morning
perception of all sounds was lost. Aft
er careful examination it was deter
mined by aurists that she was deaf be-
yond hope of recovery.
