Old Johns feet sounded on the
stairs. He brought in a tray on
which were coffee cups and a
steaming glass eontainer. He
looked reproachfully at Sarah.

They waited until John had gone

She stirred the coffee and drained
the cup.

Sarah nodded, leaned ponderous-
ly forward, and tried TO stand. The
effort sapped the blood from her
brein. She tottered, smiled rather
foolishly, and fell back in a faint.
Aggie heard his voice shouting for
John; the old mans feet clattered
on the stairs. He wrapped one ann
around his aunts back and thrust
the other under her knees. With
strain that enlarged the veins
along his temples, he lifted his aunt
and carried her 10 his bed.

when John entered.
John hurried down the stairs
again. Aggie listened TO Sarah's

came back for his pipe, tobacco and
matches. Sarah was watching him
and her eyes were scared.
He went through the steps he had
taken on the night Of the TWEEN
tieth: getting keys from the teapot,
reassuring Windle, starting the sta
ton wagon, driving swiftly through
the blue dark, and banging on the
Davis door. This time, lights flashed
on. But Danielle came down the
stairs in the same negligee. He
sucked in his breath when he saw
her. She swung open the door and
said, "Yes7"
"Sarah's pretty sick. Your phones
not working"

She was gone. Sharp steps up
stairs. Distant knocking. Her voice,
calling her father. A door squeal-
ing open. Then the steps-running.
She talked on the stairs. Hes not

He, Come onl"
Aggie followed her through the
house again--as before. She threw
words over her shoulder. "He said
something-when l came home from

They went through the large, old

Your Health
Diagnosis For
Undulent Fever
Difficult


Ev a s., HpNIu.s~N NJ .
BRUCELLOSIS Is strange
sort Of disease in a number Of
ways
To begin with, the symptoms
which II produces may vary to
great extent. and may so closely
resemble other disorders that
diagnosis is compile, ely missed.
Then, too. there may be a pre-
valehce Of the disease in certain
parts Of the country, while in
others It is quite rar-
Brucellosis is caused by three
common strains Of a germ known
as.the Brucella. The three strains
are called the abortus, mehtensis,
and su.s.
The most frequent way the dis
ease is contracted is by drinking
contaminated raw milk or .unpas-
teurized dairy products which
have come from cows infected with
Brucella abortus, Some patients
contract the disease by direct con
tact with infected animals. This
happens among veterinarians,
dairy men, and siaughter-house
employees. The disease also may be
caught from such animals as the
hog or the goat.
During the early or acute stages
Of the disease, the symptoms con-
sist of fever which runs in waves,
from which the disease has been
given the name Of unduiant fever.
There are also chills and sweats.
pain in the joints and muscles,
Of the number white cells
in the blood, and a decrease in the
coloring matter and number of red
cells.
According TO Doctor c Graham
Reid Of North Carolina, in the
later stages or chronic period of
brucellosis there may be as many
as $50 different symptoms. The
nervous system is involved in prac-
tically every instance, and the dis
ease may therefore be confused
with certain nervous disorders,
such as neurosis, in which patients
complain OF aches and pains in
various parts Of the body, as well
as headache and similar symp-
toms.
In recent times, methods have
been discovered for making a de-
finite diagnosis of orucellosis, with
laboratory examinations.
In some cases, the germ can be
cultured from the blood or spinal
fluid. Sometimes the blood or
spinal fluid may be injected into
an experimental animal and the
germs recovered from the animal.
There is also an agglutination test,
which is like a test carried out to
determine the presence Of typhoid
fever. This consists Of mixing the
patients blood serum with a cul-
ture Of the germs, and noting if it
causes dumping or CLOTHING Of the
germs. There is also skin test
which has been useful and which
is helpful in making a diagnosis.
While methods Of diagnosis have
been found, as yet there does not
seem to be any good treatment
for brucellosis. or course, rest in
bed is important. The patients
strength should be kept up with
the proper diet. There is a vaccine
as we'll as a serum which has been
found Of some value in certain in
stances.
Since the large majority Of
cases Of brueellosis are contracted
Through cows milk, the impor-
tance Of adequate pasturization
of all dairy products cannot be
overstressedI Everything possible
should be done 70 prevent the dis
ease.
