Answering your question, presume
you have in mind so-cailed lethargic en-
cephalitis or sleeping sickness. Accord
ing to Drs. Dunn and Heagy, who de-
scriped the disease as it appears. In
america in the American Journal of
Medical Sciences, about two thirds Of
the cases get we'll. The longer it lasts
the better the chance of recovery. On
the basis of this opinion your boy has
an excellent chance to recover.
Many writer's refer to after effects
from Which patients do not recover fully
Tor long time. However. very few
cases have SO many after effects as does
this boy 10 months after the onset Of the
disease.
1t is not easy to answer the question
as to the symptoms, since they are not
uniform. patient generally begins by
having some disturbance of vision. Dou-
Die vision is the trouble most frequently
encountered.
Soon lethargy develops. The patient
seems to be in natural deep sleep,
from which he can be awakened and
Kept awake for short time. At, this
stage it will be fair guess that there
is some trouble with the brain or cord
Or the membranes surrounding them and
the physician will draw OFF some of the
spinal fluid for microscopic and ohemic
examination. Neither examination will
show any evidence OF trouble. Drs.
Dunn and Heagy say that the diagnosis
rests on trouble with vision, lethargy,
and negative spinal fluid.
Sweating is prominent symptom.
Another striking popularity is the lack
OF fever, considering the severity of the
illness. II there is any fever it is
low and it does not last long.
In an analysis of the symptoms in It's
cases, double vision was the first symp-
tom In ", and was present in IS. Dis
turbance in one or another nerve con-
trolling eye muscles was present in IL
cases. In Is cases there was paralysis
OF the great motor nerve of the face.
There was lethargy in 70 cases. 1t was
the first symptom noticed in "a. In
somnia preceded the .lethargy in four
cases. Headache was the first symptom
in IL cases. Trembling was present in
IS cases and catalepsy in 2.
Thus we see that no one symptom
was present in all the cases. Nor was
any combinations Of symptoms present
in every case. Is it any wonder that
physicians disagree in their diagnoses
sometimes? Tanon, reviewing the his
tory of the disease in France, says in
1920 the type changed from one in
which lethargy dominated to one in
which spasmodic contraction Of mus
cles, trembling, and nervous irritability
overshadowed the other symptoms.

Washington. March 15.-Congress
Will pass an antl-dumping bill to
protect American markets against the
wholesale importation of European
goods at ruinously low prices, as soon
rs it convenes in special session April
IL.
Members Of the Senate finance
committee and the house ways and
means committee decided this Mon
DAY, after protracted session at
tended by the Secretary of the Treas
ury Mellon and corps of his assist
ants.
AT the same time 1t was agreed, the
basis of collecting duties on imported
goods should at once be made the
value of the goods in the Amer
lean market and not the value
IN the country of origin. This would
pc accomplished by an amendment to
the existing Underwood tariff and. 1t
is believed. would greatly increase
revenues and at the same time afford
protection.
For Action on Tariff.
The disputed question Of whether
enactment of permanent tariff law
or new revenue laws should first en-
gage attention was not finally deter
mined, although opinion was over
whelmingly in favor Of giving the
tariff precedence. Senator Penrose.
chairman of the finance committee of
the upper chamber and Chairman
Fordney Of the house ways and means
committee, will lay the matter before
President Harding Tuesday, at which
time it Is expected q definite program
may be agreed upon.
The conferees also reached these
conclusions:
/. The plan Of an emergency
tariff should be abandoned. with
the anti-dumping bill and the
new method of collecting tariff
serving as substitute.
2. Demands Of the farmers for
protection should receive early
and adequate attention.
3. Provisions should be made
in the revenue revision for rails
ing funds necessary to put the
soldier bonus into operation.
4. The permanent tariff should
yield s7oo.oo0.ooo annually or
more, an amount equal to two or
