DISEASE AFFECTS
NERVOUS SYSTEM

Infantile paralysis is a disease that
affects the nervous system. It often
causes death, and again, the acute
stage frequently subsidies and leaves
paralysis of one or more OF the limbs
that heretofore has often lasted
through life.
Today we do not know what causes
the disease, therefore preventative
measures must be broad. You must
keep the children away from insect
life, such as flies, mosquitoes. fleas,
bed bugs, ticks. ants, lice, etc. You
should see that all rats and mice
around the building are killed. Pet
cats and dogs should be washed with
two per cent earbolic aciI solution
to destroy insect life Everything
should be kept clean about the home,
including the children's bodies and
clothing.
Children should be well fed, but not
INDUCED in large quantities of water,
ice cream or other frozen dishes on a
full stomach. as that will often cause
acute indigestion and render them
susceptible to other diseases. In
other words, the digestion should be
guarded carefully.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1916-07-15

The disease spreads with great IA.
piditg, says the warning, but the
method of transference is not known.
The State Health Department warns
that doctors be on their guard and
requests that every case be reported
Immediately by mail to DR.. JepsCn, az
Charleston.
No cases have been reported in
this state for two months, but it is
recognized that they may cone n at
any time. The warning says that
Italian settlements should be careful
ly watched, as the most of the New
York cases are Italians
1t is declared that distemper may
be the same disease among animals
and that children should be kept
away from dogs having distomper
Every suspected case" the warn
ing sets forth, must be isolated and
the house placarded. The disease &C.
ours mostly in young children, begin
ming with restlesness, muscular pains,
headache and fever. Paralysis comes
rapidly The mortality is about tel
per cent. Quarantine mus last at
least two weeks. All animals must
be kept away from the sick. The bod
les of children dying of the disease
should be buried within SO hours
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1916-07-15

Children should have plenty of
sleep. They should not associate with
other children that are sick Their
homes should be well ventilated but
screened from flies, etc. and any flies
that happen to enter the building
should be killed All foodstuffs should
be protected from flies, dust, etc,
Fruit and vegetables eaten raw should
be thoroughly washed in clean water.
Children's mouths should be rinsed
out and their threats gargled with Do
BELLS solution after each meal. If the
children are too yong to rinse or gar
gle, wash the mouth Win a piece of
fabric. muslin or linen, that has been
6ippen in Dobell's solution.
Children should be kept out OF
crowded places and be denied the
frequent access to crowded halls of
entertainment during our present
threat with epidemic.
The youngsters should not be per-
mitted to sit on the damp ground nor
have their bodies thoroughly chilled,
day or night They should not battle
in cold water until the circulation
is interfered with ana they become
chilly and blue.

Several queries have come 10 the column
on the question of visiting and what one
should do In the little nlceties Of giving
presents TO ones hostess and other gracious
acts. The writer whose, letter is printed
below says she Is going to visit a friend
and shall she take a gift with her or walt
until she Is about TO leave or until she
has returned home. OF course there Is no
strict necessity that she give present to
her friend. and yet II is a gracious thing
TO do. 1t seems rather incest to take some.
thing to the friend showing that one has
thought of giving her pleasure before leav.
ing home however, II is really largely
matter of personal taste.
The writer further asks If It is necessary
when visiting friends over the weekend to
write bread-and-butter letter, so called,
after her return home. and II so to whom
II should be written to the mother or daugh.
ter
OF course, as the mother is the hostess.
the letter should be written to her, and II Is
little mark of true courtesy to write note
of thanks.
The last question is about tipping the
maid when one Is paying a short visit Again
this is really matter of personal feeling;
If II Is house where one visits very fire.
quently II would seem rather foolish to do
so at every visit, and might establish
bad precedent for other guests. A present
might be made at Christmas or some other
time during the year at the house where one
is much at home.

Now the Frelburg method demands
the constant attendance of the physician
on the patient for great length of time
sometimes for "a or 4S hours. Not all
women can afford to pay for this con.
slant attendance of the physician, and
not all women need the twilight sleep
