 Tn the usual mild case of humps the symptoms first noticed are headache, vomiting, loss of appe- tite, pains in the back and limbs, and a very slight fever. These symptoms usually are associated with any Of the common infectious diseases.
 Then there may be some pain in the jaw which is increased by jaw movements, by pressure on the glands, and sometimes by eating pickles, lemons, or other sour foods
 The swelling may begin on both sides of the face at once, but usually /one side begins to swell a very severe cases, the swelling may be SO large that the person will not be recognizable. In milder cases, of course, the swelling may be slight.
 The symptoms affecting the body as a whole seldom last more than three or four days, but may last longer if there are complications.
 If the blood of the patient is ex- amined. the doctor will usually find an increase in the number of small white blood cells.
 Children do not ordinarily have secondary symptoms with humps because they are usually put to bed and kept there until well.
 Adults, however. quite frequently suffer from complications. Thus, in- fectiOus organisms may pass from the glands in the cheeks Co thole having 10 do with sex in either the male Or the female. This is com mon and serious complication and needs most careful treatment.

 gagement Just Issued

Boston, April 28- (UP)-Police guarded the Back Bay home of a society beauty contest winner today while federal authorities sought the writer of letter threatening her life.
 Object of the threat was golden haired Miss Barbara Brewer, who was chosen at Magnolia Casino last summer as the prettiest girl on the North Shore. Only yesterday her en- gagement to Charles R. L. Sturgis of Miltno, who won second hand somest man" honors in the same contest, was announced. It was un- derstood that the letter arrived at the Marlboro street town house of MT. and Mrs. Robert E.

 Miss Brewer attended Winsor school and was presented during the 1885 1886 season. She is member of both the Vincent club and Junior League.
 Sturgis, son of MT. and Mrs. Ed ward Sturgis, prepped at Belmont school and graduated from Univer- sity of Virginia.
