other disease. But it Is of doubtful
value in this disease for the reason
that and my physician friends with
whom l have talked about the disease
have never been able to tell what is
the matter until the paralysis ap'
pears, then the damage is done and no
medicine or anti-toxin will restore the
destroyed nerve fihres in the spinal
cord. ...-.,. g..
,,E Causes Are Varied.
Two OF the cases | have seen start
ed with sore throat, all three Of my
own cases started apparently with
summer complaint; SO we do not know
definitely what precautions to take to
avoid the disease. At any rate, the
common drinking cup should be avoid
ed, careful and proper diet Instituted
and avoidance Of overhIa,ng. IN nne,
general sanitary measures should De
lived up to vigorously and trust in the
Lord for the balance until medical sci
ence can discover how to recognize
the disease in it's beginning and find
some means for it's cure before the
damage is done.
The pamphlet issued by the state
board OF health is of no value what.
ever to the Iayman who does not I'M
derstand medical terms, and Is Of very
little value to the physician, Of so little
value that did not think 1t worth
while to get supply for distribution
among the physicians. We quarantine
the disease here because the state
board Of health requires it. The vari-
ETY. of the disease we have had here
has not appeared to be infectious one
to another, but back in New York it
apparently has and quarantine is
certainly on the safe side of the ques-
ton. 1t has not been quarantined here
previously. We have had hardly as
many cases as usual and see no
cause for alarm whatever .
