State Health Bulletin As nearly twice as many cases of encephalitis have been reported to the state department of health this month as in any month since the disease was made reportable, and in view of the newspaper comments on the disease, the state department {issued the following bulletin on the subject Monday: “The early record of a disease which was apparently identical with |the present epidemic encephalitis was reported in 1712 by Elias Ca- merarius who published the account of the Tubingen epidemic charac- |ler|zed by somnolence, with pro- |nounced brain symptoms with fre quent ptosis. “Ozanann, who published a his- tory of epidemic diseases in 1835, mentions epidemics or ‘“catarrhat fever” with ‘“soporosite”, as having | existed in Germany in 1745, in Lyon in 1800, and in Milan in 1802.

In 1919 it had reached Portugal, Spain, reported from all continents and most civilized countries. “The first cases of epidemic en- cephalitis, popularly called “sleeping While the Roads Are Bad SAVE TIME—SAVE MONEY TELEPHONE Travel over our roads these days is not pleasant and it's slow—and the wear and tear on your automobile is expensive.
