OLD-FASH|ONEO
SWAMP FEVER
New York's Mayor Must Take
Quinine for Southern Malaria,
Experts Were Puzzled.

NEW YORK. Feb. 21.-Mayor
Mitchell is ready for that headache
cure at the Rockefeller Institute,
whatever it may be, although he was
astonished to find in the papers that
he was slated for treatment
IF the institute cures me of head
aches he said. lit can do anything
it likes with me, except vivisect me-"
His chamberlain and adviser, Hen
nv Bruere. had been talking over the
Mayors headaches with DR. Simon
Flexner, director of the institute. and
the physician had said that the insti-
tute could, no doubt. find out the
cause of the trouble.
Physicians in this city said that
the jungle fever TO which tn, Mavor
ascrlbes his periodic headaches was
malaria. The Mayor believes that re
contracted this fever six or eight
years ago while in British Guiana.
Malaria, Says One Expert.
DR.. George f. Siler. of the Sch IDOL
of Tropical Medicine, New Pork Post
Graduate Hospital, who has had eX
perience in tropical America, said
that the fever of which the Mayor
complained was undoubtedly mala
ria.
Judging from the symptoms de-
scribed," said DR.. Siler, Il should say
that the Mayor had contracted ma
laria which goes under such varied
names. In the South it is old fash
toned chills and fever, or, again, it
is ague. and somewhere else it is
jungle fever. 1t appears as Roman
fever on the Italian campagna. Ma
laria such as the Mayor probably
has might have been contracted from
the bite of a mosquito, and when he
was on his recent trip in Southern
latitudes he may hav been reia-
fected by another mosquito bite"
Quinine the Standard Remedy.
The standard remedy for the fever
which he Mayor evidently has is
quinine. The physicians said that It
was possible to conquer the disease
by thorough course of treatment
The head .ches due to malaria recur
every two weeks usually, and may
come less frequently if the resisting
power of the patient be greater.
Physicians who have made re-
searches in tropical medicine demon
strated that the malarial fevers which
cause so much trouble in the tropics
were due TO the Infection spread ~
the mosquit Cne of the principal
reasons Of the success of the Panama
Canal operations was the good health
of the employees engaged in that
work, because the Government had
drained the neighboring jungle and
exterminated the mosquito by the use
of crude oil.
