Serum Arrests Illness.

The vaccine, which is produced di-
rectly from the germs obtained from
the blood Of patients and increased in
cultures, is used to strengthen the re-
sistance of the body to these germs
left in The blood. The purpose of the
serum, it was explained, is to stop the
actual sickness. The purpose of any
vaccine is to set up d chemical condi-
ton in the body where the germs will
be unable to increase greatly.
The germs, put in a culture, produce
n muddy, turbid effect in the liquid as
ihey multiply. Within the past few
days Miss Evans had what she
thought was an exceptionally fine cul-
ture. Then it began to clear up. The
muddiness disappeared from the liquid.
Something was at work destroying the
germs. All precautions had been
taken to have pure culture.

after effects are present. For the
patient then there is little to be done
beyond the customary medical prac-
tices, which may lessen the effect but
not cure 1t.
The experiments at St. Elizabeth's
were conducted on the assumption,
now considered very nearly proved,
that the malady was due to a speclnc
germ which had been observed IN
great many cases. This germ enters
the brain through the nose and causes
inflammation of the brain. The early
symptoms are fever, pronounced
legarthy and disturbances Of con-
sciousness, such as twitching of the
limbs involuntarily and paralysis OF
the eye muscles so as to produce
double vision. During this stage deatn
is extremely probable.
If the patient RECEIVERS from TINS
primary condition, a period or appar-
emily good health, of uncertain dura'
ton, may follow. But after time the
unfortunate after-complicatiOnS are
almost certain. There may be a per-
manent muscular stiffness. The dis
ease, it is emphasized, does not attack
the thought centers of the brain, but
1t does produce condition where the
victim cannot express himself clearly.
He may think clearly, but be entirely
unable to say what he is thinking.
Fewer Blister Germs.
The specific streptococcus has been
observed in encephalatis cases since
1917. 1t is the same germ that pro-
duces hermes, or fever blisters, when
bodily conditions are different. Dr:
Freeman and Miss Evans started
working on this germ two years ago.
1t was found in every case that came
under their observation and they
have been able to make correct dag
nosis in obscure condition by cultures
of the blood and spinal fluid.
All they are willing to say, however,
is that it is extremely likely that this
streptococcus is the culprit. Further
observations will be necessary to es-
tablish the fact beyond the slightest
doubt. 1t occurs very widely in ma
ture. and is found in the noses of at
least half of all men and women eX-
amined.
The germ brings seeping sickness
in cases where the bodily resistance
is greatly weakened by improper liv-
ing, illness or Overwork. Thus the
disease was particularly prevalent
after the influenza epidemic OF 1917,
when persons who were recovering
from flu were stricken suddenly.
DR.. Freeman is producing the serum
by immunizing horses with the germ.
This serum must be applied during
the primary stage, and results in cut
ting short the sickness within few
days. But it does not get all the
germs out of the blood. 1t is these
which are responsible for the after
effects
