DIPHTHERIA AND CKOUP.
OPERATIONS WHICH ARE RE
QUIRED IN DESPERATE CASES.
Tracheotomy and Intubation How
They Are Performed Diphtheria
and Manure—Most Common Cause of
Colds—Children’s Winter Clothing—
A Strange Disease —To Prevent
Acute Rheumatism.
From the Bout a Herald.
Ca-es of diphtheria in which the disease
has invaded the upper part of the windpipe
ore al ways desperate, and only a small per
cent, of them recover. This passage is nar
rowed either by inflammation or by a diph
theric membrane, and rnoet of the victims
die of suffocation unless some means is em
ployed to keep it open.
A few years ago the one measure of re
lief was the operation known as tracheot
omy, which consis sin making an opening
in tbe lower part of the neck, at the front,
extending into the windpipe, and through
this a bent tube is |>assei, and afterward
fixed in place. Instead of breathing through
the mouth, the patient tbrn breathes
through the tube.
A few yea.s ago a physician conceived
the ide i of passing a tube by the way of
the mouth down into the larvnx -tbeupp r
part of tbe windpiDe—and by this meas
keep it open. 'This procedure h s no v
gained the co fldence of phvsleia s, and
has largely displaced the old operation,
tracheot< my.
Intubation, as it is callel, of course re
qui es ago id deal of skdl, but tb i accom
disked surgeon finds It comparatively easy
in most cases. And strangely enough, ’he
operation is generally wdll borne, even by
very young ctuidren.
There are some objections to tracheotomy
which do not appear in intubation. The
mere mention of the former opera io i is
sufficient to terrify relatives; besid s, there
is some lo sof blood, which tne little pit.-
ents can seldom spare. Seri ua ad unex
pected accid-nts are also quite likely to
happen after it. Moreover, w hile breathing
through the tracheotomy tube, uulesa the
air is warmed, as it is * hen i. pisse* through
the m utli, tiiere is danger of lung trouble
being set up in consequence of its low tem
perature. When the fact is considered that
nursing in tue majority of families is much
bdow the i equipments, the last named
objeclion to tbe operation is a serious one.
It appears to be generally accepted that
in very young children intubation promises
better than tracheotomy. I; promises bet
ter, also, in patients who have been much
weakened by disease. Tracheotomy is
almo-t always resisted by relatives until
they are made to realize that it is the 1 st
resort. It is a deplorable fact, moreover,
that their consent to the operation generally
comes only after it is extremely likely to
prove unsuccessful. As intubation does not
call for the use of the surgeon’s koife it is
never so strenuously resisted; therefore it
ca i ususually be employed early, a id so tbe
patient be prepared for the time of greatest
need.
Again, there is a certain class of cases,
notably of croup following me sles, in which
tracheotomv is scarcely ever, if ever, suc
cessful. In ■ nine of these c.ses there is a
slight chanco of intubati m bei g eucees ful.
Of course, in every case • f diphtheria or
croup the surgeon consulted must be lett to
choose between tracheotomy and intuba
tion. There is no rule fir him to follow,
notwithstanding what has been stated. Ii
some cases in whictheoretically, one
ope atio i would seem to promis, best, it is
contra-indicated by the presence of unusual
symptoms.
Here it <s well to say that parents are
responsible for not a few deaths from and ph
theria. Many of thm cannot b> made to
appreciate the fact that their [hvsicians
know better than t ,ey what treatment
their children need; and tiii , perhaps, ap
pears oftenest w hen their removal to hos
pitals is advised.
Against these institutions, in the minds
of many, there exist the rao-t i sane ideas;
they are always Associated with '‘cutting,”
“carving” and “experiments.” if peoole
did but know it, in no private home, no
matter how luxurious it is, or how good the
nursing furnished, a cose of diphtheria or
croup requiri. g trachetomy or i tubation
has not near the chances of recovery that
good hospital beat ne taffords.
When parents have fixed this fact in
their minds, and are ready to do at orce
what their pbys c ans advise them to do,
then there will be a no iceable fall in the
death rate from all diseases, and especia ly
from desperate cases of diphtheria and
croup.
DIPHTHERIA AND MANURE,
Dr. Airy, in a recent report to the local
government board on a i < u b eak of diph
theria in the Samford rural sanitary dis
trict of Suft lk, England, has show i that in
a particular vill gc in the didriet the out
break was immedi itely prece ie.l by the
passage through it of a cartload of London
manure landed from a barge near by. Sev
eral children re urning homo from school
comploi ied of the stench from the cart and
sickened s son after. These ca es set others
going, ad the and se ise was then dissemiuated
by school attendance and the like.
Though, ai D \ Airy suggests, the foul
effluv aof the manure may have acted
o dy by hastening the growth of tbe diph
theria, yet he consider ■ some weigut should
be given to the suggestion tuat the
eariier cases wore, in some wav or other,
due to the introduction of manure.
Dr. Airy’s suspici ns as to tiie ability of
manure to convey dise ise. further savs the
Medical Press, are confirmed by the medi
cal officer of health, Dr. Elliston. who has
observed scarlet fever to develop in certain
places after the deposit of London manure.
Simi.ar experience is also forthcoming from
Stroud, in Kent.
‘•The whole question r.f this association,
bet ween inf etious di eases and mauurial
refuse deserve* the attention of sauiiary
workers and obs-rvers. Whether the a so
ciation is one of coincidence o ily, or is truly
causative, extended i iquirv al > e can deter
mine. And, if the latter is the case, it will
yet have to be said whether the infection is
a direct one, that is, whether the poison con
tai edin the manure is derived from atoxic
animal's discharge or secretion; or whether
the lnfeetiug manure acts only as a nidus or
multiplying ground for the resting forms of
a certaiu specific contagia which may gain
access to it.”
BERI-BERI.
is a curious disease which is occasionally en
countered by pta) sciana living in seacosst
towns. It appears to be confined to sailor l ,
and although theeau-es have never been de
termined, it seems safe to attribute it,
largely, at least, to poor food and bad sani
tary conditio s. Other causes have been
suggested; and since fisherm 11 are by far
the most frequent victims f the trouble, it
has b en assumed that there is in the hand
ling of fish some peculiar irritating effect
which excites it. A. few pby-icians, also,
are inclined to lielieve that, at least in s into
instances, it is infectious, liut, as said, the
actual cause of beri-beri has yet to be de
termined.
The first symptoms usually manifested by
the disea e are so enesg iu the < alves of the
legs, and a numb and prickling feeing in
the amtles Ii time this fee ing extend l up
the legs and thighs and over he lower part
of the abdomen. The arms lose much of
their streugtu, a id in t sm a t felt, but to a
less degree, the same symptoms that occur
in the legs.
It is t, t long before the legs swell, and are
dropsical; iu severe case3 the dropsy be
c>mts quite general. And when death
occurs it is often due to dropsy within the
ciiest.
Recovery from beri-beri is the rule. In
one instance out of fifteen cases only one
died; iu another, two out of seve i died:
while in yet an th-r, r.i e deaths . ccurred
out of tbirty-se. eu enses. The dis ase ru is
quite a rapid course, and renc es it bigot

I standstill, and the power in the legs is never
entirety regained.
CAUSE OF COLDS.
A fact which many people do not recog
nize is that colds in tbe bead, throat, che-t,
i etc., are m et often caused by alio wmg the
feet t > become damp ami cold. Besides this,
congestion of important organs within the
cne-t ad abdomen Is often induced by the
; same cau -e.
Every one must know that whm suffering
from congestive troubles a foot-bath of hot
water usually relieves them greatly. From
this the natui al inference would be that to
keep the feet and legs comfortably warm is
ore of the first *-s-entials, not only in the
prevention of colds and attendant troubles,
but also to good healthy circulation.
So the feet and legs from this out and
until next summer should be well clothed.
Only bv wearing thick w olen underflan
nels, woolen stockings and heavy shoes with
thick soles can a proper regard for health be
sb iwn.
That this rule should be followed by
adu ts. no one will attempt to deny; in the
case of children its observance is even more
urgently demanded. And yet often they are
neglected, and allowed to sit down at dome
or in school with damp stockings and wold
feet, risking health and life.
Teachers, as well as parents, should look
to this fault more closely than they gener
ally do. If a caiid reaches school with
damp stockings it should be se t home at
once to be roperly wanned aad cared for.
This is going a little lurther than the most
rf teachers will care to go, but they are
gravel / at fault when they shiik the re
spo smility.
Children of the poor and needy are sel
dom properly clad, in which event they
should be k pt at home in cold and rainy
weather. And if thoughtless or cruel
parent-. force the.il to school without cloth
i ig su.table a id sufficient to hear the expos
ure the i the teacher should have sense
a:.d feeling enough to so ld them home
again.
The vaiue of a good education cannot be
overectiina.ed, but health is of infinitely
g eater importance; they who send ca l
dre i after toe for per at the risk of the lat
ter ussumo a grave responsibility, if they
are not guilty of a crime.
‘ ABDOMINAL DROPSY.
In eases of abdominal dropsy, extensive
enough to great.y interfere with the breath
ing, tapping is usually resorted to. In but
few cases, however, is one operation suffi
cient, and in the most of them it is neces
sary to perform it several times, at inter
vals of a week or two.
Som> physicians are making a practice of
tapping and iatli during a drainage tube,
which they leave in place for several weeks,
or as long as it is needed. This treat.nent
appears to have proved eminently satis
factory. There are, doubtless, cases of
dropsy which have resulced fatally, which
might have boe.i practically cured had tap
ping been resorted to, and the continuous
evacuation of the forming fluid been kept
up, ai by this treatment. A person with
abdominal drop-y is mentally greatly de
pressed, and almost always fears the worst.
And tbe fluid itself, mechanically, has a
a very disturbing effect.
If hope is inspired and comfort afforded
by this treatment not a little will have been
done 1 1 favor a cure. Of course there are
many cases of abdominal dropsy in which
a cure is absolutely out of the que-tion.
But, as said, it s puis os though some die for
whom there ought to to a cu e.
TO PREVENT ACUTE RHEUMATISM.
The opinion of a noted < icrman physician
on the prevention of ucut rheumatism must
tie of inti rest to those w o suffer from the
distressing disease. He states bis bedef
that, to prevent recurrences of it, it is fre
quently necessary for the patient to change
his residence.
It has Peen observed that aeutv rheuma
tism is especially likely to occur in certain
hou es or groups of houses, a fact which
helps sustain the theory that ths disease is
caused by some specific poison.
Berlin Knows Not the Kochs.
From the Pall Mall Gazette.
The Kochs, it appears, have hitherto
lived so quietly that even at Berlin nobody
knows anything about them, and the ques
tion is now being asked everywhere, "Who
are the Koch i Where and how do they
live?” etc. But “the Kochs” are just as de
termined to go on with their retired life as
the public is t > drag them out of it. Dr.
Koch’- private patients, of whom, however,
he attends only a very limited number, are
mostly members of the highest German
aristocracy, and all of them are sworn to
sec ecy as' to the professor’s treatment. It
is understood that the professor will not
lm.g keep the world waiting. He is a
scientist who is ab >ve reclame, as one of
the correspondent puts it, but he would not
withhold tor an instant Icnowleige calcu
lated to benefit mankind as soon as he coni i
publish it without fear of refutation. He
is only waiting for seie ittfic certainty.

MEDICAL.
SCROFULA
Is that impurity of the blood which produces
unsightly lumps or swellings in the neck;
which causes running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which develops ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin of pimples, can
cerous growths, or "humors;” which, fasten
ing upon the lungs, causes consumption anti
death. It Is the most ancient of all diseases,
and verv few persons are entirely free from it.
To C o an CURED
By taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
has proven Itself to he a potent and peculiar
medicine for this diseaso. If you suffer from
scrofula, try Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
“ Every spring iny wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, my little boy,
three years old, being a terrible sufferer.
Last spring he was one mass of sores from
lieadtofeet. Wcalltook Hood's Sarsaparilla,
and all have been cured of the scrofula. My
little boy is entirely free from sores, and all
four of my children look bright and healthy.”
