SLEEP SICKNESS
HANGOVER" OF
FLU EPIDEMIC
Health Authorities Say New
Disease Came From En-
rope Like Other .MaIady

The epidemic somnolence, or 'sleep-
ing Sickness now prevalent in several
cities is a Hangover" from the flu.
That's the decision reached by the
committee of the Virginia state board
Of health which has been investi-
eating the new disease.
The United States public health
service is to be called upon by the
Virginia authorities to help find out
what causes it and what will cure 1T.
DR.. E. G. Williams, Virginia health
commissioner, said there was no
doubt in his mind that the strange
malady bears a direct relation to the
influenza epidemic. He corroborated
the prediction of DR.. Beverly r. Tuck
err, chairman of the sleeping sickness
committee, that the new epidemic
will crop out in communities which
felt the worst ravages Of the '.hu.
The experience of England had
much to do with this decision.
England had the 'f1u" last spring,
before it struck America, and last
fall it had the sleeping sickness .,
The disease was at first confused
with botulism, the new. war disease,
resulting from food poisoning which
was prevalent in England. Investiga-
ton by the health authorities of Lon
don and Sheffield proved. however,
that sleeping sickness and botulism
We're not the same.
Then they thought it might be in
fantile paralysis. Sir Arthur News
holme, medical officer of London,
finally decided that epidemic somno-
lence" was a brand-new war disease.
1t was made 'reportable' disease.
Then the epidemic stopped so sudden
ly that the investigation was carried
no farther.
But Sir Arthur Newsholme gave it
as his opinion that the epidemic had
resulted from the general breaking
down of the physical resistance of
the English people caused by the
flu.
The sleeping sickness" germ, he
said, was harmless to any person of
good vitality, but when that vitality
was weakened by the influenza, his
body made an excellent field for the
parasite to work in.
We blamed the flu on the Huns
and if You like you can blame the
sleeping sickness" on them, too. For,
according to all records, it first broke
out in Vienna in 1917, and it was a

CONCENTRATED
LIQUOR NOT A
PRACTICALPLAN
Scientists Scott at Idea for
Beer Pills, Whisky Pellets
and Gin Tablets

Many have been the reports and
rumors of devices for evading the
rigors of national prohibition, and
among the most interesting of these
was the alleged discovery of Eng
lish chemists that alcoholic liquors
could be concentrated in tablet form.
However, the Investigations of a re-
porter among men of science appear
to have brought out the fact that
leading chemists are far from believ-
ing that in the dry future the whisky
pellet, the beer pill, the gin tablet,
or champagne capsule will make it
possible for the seeker after alco-
holic excitement to indulge in his
favorite Stimulant. The reported
English experiments were supposed
to have been the outcome OF the
progress made during the war in con-
centrating beef soups and other
foods.
German scientists. also, had made
ton through experiments conduct
ed both before and during the war.
In most of these concentrated or
tablet foods the bulk was reduced
by extracting water, or cellulose, or
both, which did not Interfere with
"food-yalue.' Of the concentrated
food that remained. The simple adj
dition of water in most instances,
produced a food with much the same
properties as the original material.
These experiments were not with
out effect on persons who viewed
with alarm the approach of national
prohibition, says the New York Sun:
1t was believed that whisky or
beer and other alcoholic beverages
would lend them selves tO sim In I
methods of concentration. At a
glance it seemed that the teeth were
drawn from the prohibition amend
ment. Every man could equip HIM
pills that would change the gloomiest
winter of discomfort into glorious
summer Of convivial delight.
Such beverages as near beers,
which look like beer, taste like
beer, but lack the authority, would
mans drink by the addition Of a
beer pill. A pint of diluted molasses,
plus a cake of yeast and a whisky
pellet, would restore the supremacy
let's would add a kick that would al
most be a knockout.
a., Cold science, however, fails to
support the theory of these dreaming
optimists. Physicians and chemists
have united in declaring that con-
made. The effort to concentrate
whisky would destroy it, because of
the nature of the constituents.
The ingredient which gives whisky
it's subtle power and medicinal value
is ethyl alcohol. Remove the al
cohol and what remains is no longer
whisky. The same is true of the
beers and wines of various sorts.
Some doctors and chemists have de-
clared that there is no way of con-
centrating the alcohol extracted from
the liquors

fanish, loosen and die; then the hair
falls out fast.
