The Kflaete Of the Disease Described.
Hew te Secure Immunity.
The Mtdieal AVwef Philadelphia pub
lishes an exhaustive article en Influents
(lajrrippe), by Prof. Roberts Bartholemew
of Jefftrsen Medical college. After giving
an historical sketch of the disease, its
pathology, and morbid anatomy, the
author says : v
"Influenza cemes suddenly and gees as
quickly. The least robust of any age and
women seem te be the first victims. It Is
h are a questien of bodily condition, net of
the sex. The large numbers simultane
ously attacked attracts general attention,
and tbfls these mint iinpressionable are
seized, ihe onset being facilitated by any
depressing emotion like fear or illness.
There is no rigor, properly te bethusdoslg bethusdeslg
nsted, but rattier a series of light cbtlls
and a feeling of heat therewith. Some
times malalne or a general kind Is expe
rienced, but, like the attack itself, Is short
In du ration, lasting but n few hours.
" With the first access or the nasal and
faucal irritation comes the chilliness, which
Is followed by some feverishness, with
mere pronenuced malaise, and, In general
the headache, weakness and soreness or
the members, especially of the larger Joints.
With the progress of the case In aome
epidemics there Is considerable geaerat
weakness, even marked depression, of the
vital powers. The pulse becemes small
and weak, the mind gloomy, and roatless reatless
neas ensues. Wuenafatal termination is
te occur, as a rule, an extension downward
Inte the trachea and bronchi takes place.
"Although catarrhal and croupeus
pneumonia are said te be complications,'
they should be regarded as occasional con
ditions, and when present are, properly
apeaklng, constituted parts or me maiaay.
The chief importance or croupeus and
catarrhal pneumonia is that the develop
ment or these, out or an existing catarrh or
the bronchi, Is frequently a cause of death.
"The rapidity with which the disease
supervenes its preliminary development
being hours, and Its whole career but a
matter of three or four days Is romarkable.
IUlapsea are common, usually each suc
ceeding seizure being milder, but net a few
pass by easy transition into chronic bron
chitis, emphysema, asthma, Ac Obviously
a catarrhal process se extensive and severe
may contribute immensely te chronic dis
ease or the middle ear, eustachian tube,
nese and threat, and thus permanently
damage the parts.
"The best manner of securing Immu
nity Is by the Inhalation or sulphureus
acid gas dally, when the approach or the
eildomle renders it necessary, and by tak
ing five grains of salioyclnte of clnchenldlne
three times a day, and by se living as te
aveiJ taking cold. When the attack has
began, It seems te me desirable te give one
or two grains of calomel at night, Inhale
some sulphureus add gas, ana have the
ratlnnt alt in a room where steam contain
ing eucalypteT an-tee luhaled In large
auautlty. The lnsufilatien of reaercln by
ustlng ever the entlre area of effected
lutrts as far as practicable Is also recom
mended. "The Internal remedy most desirable Is
atropine In solution one grain te one
ounce of water the dose being from one
te five drops, the minimum being for little
children, afterflrst dentition. The tincture
or belladonna may be used rrem one te
ten drops twice a day. As this medica
ment is both prompt and prolonged In
action, It should be given net mere than
twice a day, unless the dose be much
smaller than is advised above. Salloyclate
fit clnchenldlne and quinlne should be
given as a proplylectlo remedy, If there be
reasons te suppose that such power Is really
exerted uy 11.
"My own conviction is that as a prophy prephy prophy
lsctle the combination of clnchenldlne
with salicylic acid Is preferable te quinlne.
Fer the depression and melancholy It Is
probable that atropine will de better. Fer
the distressing headache, joint pains and
wakefulness, antipyrin.acetanilld, phena-
tln, and ether germicides and antiseptics
tvUl, no doubt, be found useful."

SPORT IN CANADA.
Americana Attracted Te the Hunter'
Paradlae In the North.
Frem th.N.Y., Star.
That Judge Henry A, Gllderslceve Is a
Iurlst aad an authority upon firearms In
his country Is known te everybody 1 but
that he la equally prominent aa au expert
upon sheeting and fishing may be a mat
ter or news te the public " The Paradlte
Fin and Feather club," of which he la
chairman, la near Montreal. In speaking
or It aud sport In Canada, he aald :
"It amuses me te aee men of Intelligence
crossing the ocean te sheet In English pre
serves, or en Scotch moors, te travel ever
the continent te the Black Hills, the Sierras
and the Rookies for wild game, or te loser
themselves en the coasts or North and
Seuth America, when they can get better
sport and much mere of It In Canada. The
Dominion la a singular country. While It
haa a goodly population, the people are net
distributed aa In this country. In Quebec
and Ontario they are crowded along the
St. Lawrence ana the great lakea, while the
Interior still remains an almost unbroken
wilderness. Every trun spertsmsn knows
It, bowever, and takes advantage or the
fact. Our own club, for example, owns a
lake and a tract of land almost large enough
te be a state iuelf. It Is mere than wild.
Yeu can sheet and fish there a year nd
net see a soul oxcent the members or your
own party. Besides our club, there are
ethers rrem Bosten, New Yerk. Phila
delphia, Albany, Baltimore, Montreal,
Quebec, Terente, Oswego, Rochester
and Syracuse owned by lease or
Burchase. Yeu can buy wild land In
10 unsettled portions of Canada for a mere
song. The policy of the government la as
friendly u can be and you are never both
ered by official Interference The fishing
and sheeting Is, I think, the best en the
American contlnent. Tbe nearest approach
te It la te be found in the mere Inaccessible
portions et the Adirondack., and the great
North Weeds of Mslne. Te these
who belong te tbe clubs this wild country
or the Kanucka offers every advantage.
Railroad travel Is aa expensive there aa In
New Yerk state, and beard la se cheap aa
te be ridiculous. Beard runs from 83 te
83 In the rural neighborhood across our
border. There Is no malaria there. The
country is a mass of broken reeks, virgin
forests, lakeaand rivers. It Is never twice
alike, and always beautlful. Fever and
ague, unhealtbful swamps and stagnant
penas anu ureeaa are unanewn. xua
weeds are chiefly pine, hemleck, cedsr,
spruce and fir, and the air Is se full of their
characteristic perfume as te be a cure for
hay fever, catarrh and colds. The dsys
are nsver tee het in summer, eveu at neon,
and all the rest of the twenty-four hours
are cool, crisp and Invigorating. There is
a plentiful dew fall, and a rubber or
woolen blanket is necessary te him who
aleepa outdoors in tbe open air. In winter
It Is cold, but Ills se dry aud clear as te
produce less discomfort tbsu the muggy,
moist and muddy winter we have here.
The game supply Is exhaustless. Trout
fill brooks and streams and lakes alike j
beyond these are endless armies or salmon,
baas and plckerel. The feathered kingdom
la represented by tbe quail, partridge,
woodcock, wild duck, wild turkey and
wild geese, and a score or ethers. Se 1 leh
Is the country in this respect that It is essy
for an expert with the red and gun te
supply a party 01 a aezen wuu we mu.t
luscious game in tbe world. Americans
are treated splendidly wherever they go,
and I think that the majority or the people
we meet up there are strong annexationists.
There are many political reasons for the
merging or our Northern neighbors Inte
our Union. They have all been discussed.
Perhaps an additional reason for annex
ation may be found In the root that Canada
haa all the conveniences that sportsmen
want, and we, the sportsmen, want them."
