Mumps is one of the less dangerous
infectious diseases of childhood, but
il is a very common one. Almost every
one is attacked by it before adult life
is reached. Although it is one of the
less dangerous diseases, there are at
times serious complications which, in
very rare cases, may be fatal.
1t is transmitted by direct contact
with a patient suffering from the dis
ease, and is probably not transmitted
thru third person. Therefore. the
epidemics are usually more limited
than most other epidemics. II is CON
tagious practically from the onset and
until the swelling has subsidized Three
weeks is generally accepted as the
contagious period.
The first symptoms noticed are us
ually pain and swelling in the region
of the angle of the jaw either on one
or both sides. The onset may be more
severe. giving rise to high tempera-
ture, vomiting and commissions, but
this is not the rule. The swelling per-
sists for several days and gradually
begins to subSide after about five To
seven days. Regarding the treatment.
there is little to be done. except to
prevent the spread of the infection to
other persons, and to relieve the pain.
4 physician should always be called
at the first sign of this disease. Cold
applications are best for relieving the
pain, although i'm young children
warm applications may be better. In
case the temperature is high. a sponge

such a bath should be from 75 to 80
degrees Fahrenheit.
During cOnvaleScence good tonic
is often of benefit. as in some cases
a slight anaemia may be present. One
attack usually confers permanent i'm.
munity. The period of quarantine is
until the swelling subsidies.

This is probably the mildest of all
the infectious diseases. Ii is trans

ter two or three days. There is usually |
a slight fever, and redness of the /
