Measles.

This is the season when parents
should guard against measles. In this
state over seven out of ten deaths, and
a proportionate number of cases, occur
in the first half of the calendar year,
or from January to June.
Nature. Measles is highly contagi-
Gus disease, characterized by symp-
toms of cold in the head and a rash
which appears first upon cheeks and
forehead. The general public and even
many physicians underestimate the Sc
robustness of measles, the complications
of which make it one of the most dam
gerous of the eruptive fevers.
The contagion (the germ has not yet
been discovered) is carried most COM
monty by discharges from the nose,
and may be carried by third person.
One attack does not give absolute pro-
lection from further infection. Con-
trary to common belief, there may be
even three or four attacks.
Symptoms. The disease begins (most
commonly fourteen days after infec
tion) with symptoms of severe "cold in
the head", sneezing, running nose,
chilliness, cough, etc. The fever may
rise as high as 1O4 degrees F.

forehead in the form of red, shotty
dots, spreads to neck and chest. The
general symptoms and prostrations may
be very severe The peeling usually
begins two or three days after the rash
appears.
Complications. Measles itself rarely
causes death. Complications, however,
of which broncho-pneumonia is the
most common and the most dangerous,
probably are given credit for causing
deaths really due to measles. Inf1am-
nation of throat and of middle ear and
intestines may occur. Measles fire.
quently paves the way for consump-
ton.
Diagnosis. Measles is most likely to
be confused with scarlet fever.
Prevention. As in all contagious dis
eases of childhood, the patient should
be completely quarantined. Handker-
chiefs, bedding, clothing, etc., should
be carefully handled and disinfected.
Treatment. The patient should be
confined to bed in well ventilated
room, we'll nursed, and carefully watch
ed by competent physician. The per-
iod of convalescence is the most impor-
tant so far as the development of the
dangerous after effects is concerned.
The disease is absolutely preventable!
