As Dangerous as Poison Gas Shehs
In the head, eyes, ears, back or other
parts of the body and a feeling of Sc.
we're sickness. In most of the cases the
symptoms disappear after three or four
days, the patient then rapidly recover
ing. Some Of the patients, however,
develop pneumonia, or inflammation
of the ear, or meningitis, and many of
these complicated cases die. Whether
this so-called Spanish influenza is
identical with the epidemics of influen-
"a of earlier years is not yet known.
"Epidemics of influenza have visited
this country since 1917. 1t is interest.
ing to know that this first. epidemic
was brought here from Valencia,
Spain. Since that time there have
been numerous cpidemics Of the dis.
ease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic
of influenza, starting somewhere in the
Orient, spread first to Russia and
lllClICe uNtl IIdClItUIls llC 'ulllC CIV
ilized world. Three years later there
wGS another tlare-up of the disease.
Both times the epidemic spread wide
ly owe the United States.
although the present epidemic is
called Spanish influenza there is no
reason to believe that ii originated in
C.,,.:, S,,.,. ,.r;,a,.. ,,-i,, Ia, yn er,1inI
the question believe that the epidemic
came from the Orient and they call at
tention to the fact that the Germans
mention the disease as occurring along
the eastern front in the summer and
fall Of 1911"
How can Spanish influenza" be rec
ognized?
There is as yet no certain way in
which Il single case Of Spanish influ.
enZa' an be recognized. On the otiI-
er hand, recognition is easy where
there is Il group of cases. In contrast
to tie outbreaks of ordinary coughs
and colds. which usually occur in the
cold months. epidemicS of Influenza
may occur III any season OF the year.
Thus the present epidemic ragged most
intensely in Europe in May, June and
July. Moreover, in the case Of ordi-
nary colds, the general symptoms
(fever, pain. Depression are by no
means as severe or as sudden in their
onset as they are in influenza. Final
~, ordinary colds do not spread
through the community so rapidly or
so extensively as Goes influenza.
'ln most cases Il person taken sick
with Influenza feels sick rather sud-
denly. He feels weak. has pains in the
eyes. ears. head or back, and may be
sore I'LL over. Many patients feel
di&Zy. some vomit. Most Of the pa
tients complain Of feeling chilly, and
with this comes a fever in which the
temperature rises to 100 to 10i. In
l. slow.
"In appearance one IS struck by the
fact that the patient looks sick. His
eyes and the inner side Of his cycIids
may be slightly ~'hloodsh0t.' or CON
gcStcd,' as the doctors say. There
may he running from the nose, or
there may we somc cough. These signs
OF Il cold nay nut be market: never
theiess the patient looks and feels very
SILK.

the symptoms as aircady d~>r'zhca.
