M.D. If a person consults 60 different, the-patient_gesires medical works he will find as many different views on the cause of fever. All will admit, however, that the start- ing point of a fever is unknown, and that there must be within the person a “suitable soil,” “a predisposing cause,” or the “disease diathesis,” otherwise that person will pass through the “black hole of Calcutta,” the fever in- fected swamps of Florida, might have lain in the trenches of Santiago, or camped for months in any of the south- ern military camps during the last war, with his comrades dying on every hand, and he remain as strong and well as if fever germs had never been discovered by the skillful scientists and never had an existence. Not until this original cause of disease, this hidden secret. which has baffled the utmost research of the world’s most noted scientists, has been discovered, and its removal or prevention accomplished, will mankind be freed from the dread of any one of the .40 or more different types of fever, Net until then will Bright’s disease, ¢dia- betes and consumption cease to stand like a specter, ever ready to rob us of our loved ones. “Will that time ever come?” fs the despairing ery on every hand. What is the answer of science? Listen: “The practice of medicine never was, is not and never will be an exact science,” is the ut- terance of one of the most notec medical men of America, made at o convention of his fraternity a few years ago. Not one of that great and hon- ored company dissented from thet view but {t does not follow that they are therefore going to discontinue ¢evotine their lives to alleviating the suffering of humanity. ‘ The first thing in order Is to determine the kind of fever—for there are many types. Forty-four kinds are named, symptoms given and the treatment suggested by an able writer whom I know and honor for his ability ané knowledge; and yet there are numerous forms well known to him that are not mentioned. I will describe here simply two grades of fever, which are termed, respectively high and low grade fever, In the first named, the symptoms marifested are a bright-red or rosy face, freavent pulse strong, full and regular. with the tem- perature sometimes rising as high ar degrees, though as a rule rot coins higher than 195 degrees. The stin the face feels dry and hot to the tone! This fever is of a high or ardent prac and manifests the powerful resistance made by the vitality to overcome the trouble. 5 Low-grade fever is of a different char- acter, The condition in which we fine the patient ienotes inability of the vital power to co. quer the invading army of disease germs which have found a svit- able soil for their special wor’. Iv tht case the pulse is frequent, 125 or more weak and often frresular. The face, in- stead of being rosy, is dusky, often sal- low or pale. with ared snot on the cheek. By. these signs we now that a stitable soil has been found and the disease has obtained a foothold from which it wil! be hard to dislodge it. Frequertlv the great vital effort put forth in high fever, if not sustained by such means as I have pointed out, ex- hausts the patient. the heart and nerves grow weary, and gradually the high- grade changes into a low grade of fever. During the first stages of either a high or low grade of fever the treatment given in a former paper is the proper method for combating the disease; but if, for any reason, the case has not re- ceived proper treatment and has passed into the low grade fever, great care must be exercised in the use of cold water, as the vitality may have be- come £0 reduced as to be unable to re- cover from the process. First, we must infuse new vital ac- tion into the feet and legs. As to the first part of the treatment, we will re- peat the hot fomentation; moist heat is what we want; and the blanket is again brought into use. After being thor- oughly soaked in boiling hot water, it is wrung out and wrapped around the feet and legs, well up above the knees. Care must be taken not to scald the feet or legs in this heating process. As a rule, the sensation conveyed to the patient is of a grateful nature, but there may be delirium. The head is hot; the pulse, though rapid, is feeble. A cold compress to the spine under these con- ditions might go far-toward killing htm heat through the feet and legs, we can safely reduce the fever in the head by the use of the cold compress. In this | acid of the lemon be found for the 4 lution or counter- action of the pois is substances that are in the stomach and intestines, and it will do wonders in cases of gastric fever; it is to be taken in teaspoonful doses only, and as frequently as can be borne by the patient without discom- fort—perhaps a dozen teaspoonfuls within the period of five minutes—re- peated three times a day or oftener if Very little if any food is required curing the first nine days of such a fever; but it is well to remember that alcoholic liquors take away but never give support or strength to the failing vitality. Therefore, when well-meaning friends advise its use, heed them not; sweet milk, if somewhat diluted with pure water, will do; but there is nothing so good and, as arule, 80 agreeable to the patient as good, fresh buttermilk, fresh from the churn. The patient’s own fancy is all that need be consulted about the quantliy, as there is usually very little demand for food; nature understands what is needed, and does not:ask for what will do injury, although there may be an oecasi»nal case where an abnormal ap- petite wii he exhibited, which should not be gratified, Laicr !* will he my aim to give you such a complete un- derstanding of the fundamental! princi- ples of dietetic and hygienic treatment in all cases that specific instructions will not be necessary; general instruc- tion will be sufficient. the best thing to 5 CLUB NOTES. Seaton, Ill—Dr,. David H. Reeder. Laporte, Ind.—Dear Doctor: I wish to know what are the causes of puffs or sacs uncer the eyes and how they may be removed? Also what fs the proper way of sleeping? Some authori- ties say sleep without a pillow, others say only a very thin pillow. I have been fn the habit of sleeping on my back,’ as it seems the most natural po- sition, and I want to know if that would have anything to do with getting the liver out of order, for mine has been giv- ing me trouble. Yours, respectfully, J.B, The cause of the puffs or sacs under the eyes is the lack of proper activity on the part of the kidneys and other excretory organs of the system, When all of the organs of elimination are ac- tive and the circulation is good these do not appear. Sometimes they are an indication of gout, and such people are liable to be rheumatic or dropsical, In regard to the best position for sleeping I have observed that for most people directly opposite from that which you practice is best; that is. that you should le fare ¢ 1, in which case a very small pillow, if any, will suffice. Any girl or woman who mates a practice of steeping face cownward will maintain hetter health and live longer, keep a better form ard have less sickness than thoce who sleep vnon the back. Of course @ person cannot sleep that way all the time, and if the pillow is small it really mates very little difference what other positions are taten during portions of the night, either side or back. Massena.—David H, Reeder, Ph. D., M. D., Laporte, Ind.—Dear Doctor: I shave shooting pains from my right hip the method could be improved upon by those living near a creamery. buttermilk {s both food and drink and almost anyone could live upon it for many davs. aids in dissolving the uric acid crys and I believe it would be a more certain cure than the water alone, Health Club should be addressed to Dr. David H.

They seem to be in the flesh and come after a hard day’s work or after being on my feet a great deal. At times they are so severe that I can't move, and then they are soon gone. They have troubled me at times for four years. but not very often until late- ly, and now it is every few days. At night I can hardly turn In bed. Other times when it. does not pain me I am healthy and strong. Hoping you can help me. and wishing you success, I am, very truly, MRS. B. V. The pains are in all probability caused by uric acid crystals in the blood. Of course you understand that uric acid is the cause of rheumatism and that the primary cause is poor elimination. That is, the organs of elimination which should excrete the waste matter from the system are not properly doing their duty. In thts case the kidneys are the principal offenders. I have recently Tead an article in which the writer stated that he had cured htmself abso- lutely and permanently of rheumatism by fasting for three days and drinking copiously of pure, soft water while fast- ing. He also stated that he has induced many friends to try the method and had never known it to fail. There are people who might think they would starve to death in three days, but we have indisputable evidence that a fast of more than 40 days is possible, and 4s this is.certainly the most economical method of cure for rheumatism ever yet heard of, I think that no one need hesitate to try it on account of the expense.

E ability, be no one else possessed of the genius to carry on an almost incredible art. The collection belongs to Har- vard university, and (ie arcist is a Bo- hemian. Everyone who visits the Ware collection on the third floor of the university museum, Oxixord street, Cambridge, is amazed at tue marvel- ous beauty and fidelity of the models, most of which are so exquisitely nat- ural that he is tempted to rub his eyes as Aladdin must have done when he “stopped in the garden to observe the trees, which were loaded with extra- ordinary fruit, of difierent coiors on each tree. Some ovore fruit eatirely white, and some clear and transparent as crystal; some paie red and others deeper; some green, blue and purple, and others yellow; in short, there was fruit of all colors. The white were peariss, the clear and transparent, dia- monds; its deep red, rubies; the paler, balas rubies; the green, emeralds; the blue, turquoises;the purple, amethysts, and the yellow, sapphires.’ All of which is not nearly so extraordinary as the fact that dear, familiar black- eyed Susan can be exactly reproduced in hard and brittle glass. HABITS OF THE TROUT. They Will Eat One Another or Their Own Eggs and Jump at Almost Anything in Motion. Trout, theoretically the spiritual dwellers of icy crystalline depths, sometimes have perverted tasies, as well as individuals more highly or- ganized. ‘Lhey eat one another; they eat other fish; they eat their own eggs when the chance precents itself; and I believe from personal observa- tion that they deliberately set upon and kill maimed or injured trout. Big trout will jump at almost any- thing that is in motion on the water. 1 have seen them come swirling up in the wake of a dripping swallow; they will take-the various forms of artufi- cial bait, spoons, spinne artificial grasshoppers, crickets, frogs and “dobsons.” I have seen them strile at a small garter snake swimmi have seen a trout strike and seize a mouse, Once, while casting from a canoe, when at dusk ithe nighthawks were very thick, I slapped the flies again and again on the wings of the gyrating birds, and on one occasion dislodged a feather which, falling to the surtace of. the lake, was seized by a trout. ODD CAUSES FOR DIVORCE Upusual Reasons of Pour Chicago Women for Asking Separation from Their Luscaa | aH Four queer divorce cases come from f Chicago. One woman says her hus- band threw a fish at her with such force that it cut her arm with its sharp fins, A saloonkeeper charges his wife with bombarding nim with bottles of beer, but does not state what he was doing whiie this was going on. Another man is said to have tried to kill his wife by turning on the gas jets in her room. A fourth man says that his wife once beat him with a hair- brush. until it broke. It all goes to prove, however, that when two people disagree they will use whatever weapon chances to be ai hand to express their feelings, if they be of the type which seeks’ relief in personal violence. Primitive human nature fs pretty much the same, and where the cave man or woman used a club or a stone the modern Chicago man or woman uses gas jets and hair brushes. There is a chance for some of the delicate sentimental theorists to figure out the amount of real home lite which exists in homes where the husband and wife have the habit of throwing things. Costly City Underground. A lot of the taxpayer’s money is spent in ways that he little dreams of. He knows, of course, that he helps pay for the putting in of sewers, but how many New Yorhers know that nearly three millions of dollars were spent for this one item alone last year? Over four millions were spent on the grading and opening of streets, and just $13.845,- 930.23 covers the amount of these two items for the years 1902-3. All of which goes to show that the city underground is just about as costly as the more pre- tentious city overhead. First Cup of Tea. , In all probability the first cup of tea ever made in England was drunk upon the site of Buckingham palace. The rea- son for the supposition is as follows: The first pound of tea which came to England was bought—for 60 shillings— by the earl of Arlington in Holland, and was brought over by him; and at this time the earl resided at Arlington house, which was pulled down to make room for Buckingham house, since then be- come Buckingham palace.
