CONSEQUENCES
OF THE GRIP

SCRIBED BY AN EXPERT.
Peculiarities of the Prevalent Epl

by Dr. Carl Sellor, Together with
Indications of Helpful Precaution
ary or Remedial Steps Why the
Malady Is Inclined to Linger in
the Victim Romedles Necessary to
Drive It Away.
Tn answer to the numerous liunilr
lot uiul reciueats for more details,
which hnve reached mo p.irlly throuKli
the editor of The Tribune anil partly
direct from rtvtUerH o The Ttlbuiio,
T gladly comply ulth thorn, In tho
liope that my experience may bo of
jirofit to others. For tho benefit of
those who have not Keen my former
nrtlclo, I will, In a low words Mini
iitarlzu tho eseMiticU pohiU In it, before
rnteiliis on the discus-don of thn
poqullac, complications, varletic", ttid
no forth.
Thuu, It will bo icmonibeicil that tln
'Olseiiso know as the American grip
was first observed by tho willr and
othcis In 1SS6 and that n caieful study
of Its symptoms showed that It was
n very different ditionco fioni the epl
iloinlu inllueusce, or la grippe, epldemle
in Kurope. and aKo differed fiom tlm
urdluury and often epidemic winter
colds of this counti. v. This difference
vs shown to consist In thu ubsenuc
of fever and Inflammation, but with a
high temperature and feeble heait
present, and that tho various symp
toms could bo luferred for their
rnusatlon to an abnormal condition of
the nervous system, which to beRln
with was piobably due to a peculiar
electric or magnetic condition of the
earth's atmosphere, whllo In la. grippe
iind in winter colds Inilammation und
ff-ver are present, caused by localized
renditions of tho temperature and
moisture In the atmosphere, which are
more or less prejudicial to health.
TIIK MAIX FJ3ATITHK.
As the main feature of this in.ilady,
iho lnnitratlon of the tissue underly
ing the mucuous membranes atl
through the body, by n semi-fluid
mucilaginous substance, was mention
ed, and It Is this Infiltration which
causes, directly or Indirectly, tho dif
ferent varieties and apparent vagaries,
as well as tho secnallau or after effects
of the disease. It Is but natural that
this Infiltration should rhow It.self
most prominently in those portions of
the body In which the mucuous mem
brane Is weakest and least ablo to
resist Its Invasion, which feebleness of
rcslstanco Is caused by previous dis
eased conditions. The treatment, it
was stated, thould consist in the giv
ing of ten grain doses of bonzoato o:
soda at short Intervals, together with
heart stimulants and absolute mental
md physical rest, and that all heart
depressing medicines, us well as qui
nine, should bo avoided.
Thus wo find many cases of grip
resembling gastritis, typhoid fever,
appendicitis and other diseases of the
alimentary tract in connection with or
without skin eruptions, as well as the
more commonly observed cases le
sembllns Influenza or la grippe, and,
as It Is this form which Is most prev
alent at the present time, I will to
btiict my rcnuuks to it and leae the
detailed consideration of the other
forms for homo future occasion, al
though It Is estimated that in only
about thliiy-flve per cent, of all case
of the American grip the symptoms
are most pronounced in tho mucuous
membrane of the upper air passages.
It Is not astonishing, therefore, that
when tho peculiar electrical condi
tion of tho general atmosphere which
produces tho change In tho nervous
system causing the American grip oc
curs at this time of tho year, when
our changeablo climate and our local
weather conditions tiro favorable for
tho development; of winter colda or of
an In Hated condition of the mucuous
membrano of tho respiratory organs,
(he syptoms of the grip should bo most
juonouneed In those organs.
rKCUMARITin.
Thus wo And in the grip cases, the
stoppage of the no,e without much
i tinning, however, the more or less
1 orations, the feeling of fullness and j
soreness of tho throat, but without
the characteristic inilammation of tho
ordinary soro throat, the shortness of
breath and the difficulty of breathing
out mora marked than that of breath
ing in, Indicating a mechanical ob
struction in the smaller bronchial
tubes, which cannot be relieved by the
copious expectoration of mucuous, as
in oidlnary bronchitis, symptoms all
of which to tho layman point to the
existence of an attack of ordinary In
fluenza or winter cold, but which,
taken together with the pale and pulfy
appearance of the mucuous membrano,
the absence of fever, the prostration,
and tho history of the suddpn onset of
tho attack, make a differential diag
nosis not only easy, but absolutely cer
tain. There nro occasional ease In which
tho patient complains mostly about a
localized sharp and persisting pain in
tho throat, which Is increased by swul
lowinc and has the character of a
iheumatlo pain as felt in tlior nails
of the body, and if considered alone
might 1o taken to be close to rheuma
tism or gout of tho throat, an expres
sion of thete diseases which is by no
means uncommon. A similar pain also
is frequently complained of by pa
tients suffering from blood poison, so
called, Introduced by Inoculation, hue

REMEDIES.
Thus the selection of bonzoate of
soda as a remedy In this malady was
not a hup-huzard one, and tho discov
ery of Its specification In the grip a
happy find, but was due to cloo ob
servation of the dlseaM and of tho
Indications which were presented by
Its various symptoms In a group by
Itself, llenzoate of soda Is a drug
which was much used and highly
valued as n remedy in diseases of the
mucous membranes by tho older physi
cians, but had been laid on the shelf
and been forgotten by the younger
generation with tho introduction of
the Innumerable new chemicals, which
nro even yet little understood as to
their action upon the system. Doth
Dr. Glasgow and myself In 18ST select
ed this drug us the one to bo used In
the treatment of grip, Und our success
with It proved our logical deductions
to be correct.
If the abnormal condition of the ner

icinoved nnd the patient's health be
not fully restored, the disease Is apt
to become chionic ami abnoimul

THIS CITY TO
HAVE A SHOW
SENATOR VAUOHAN TALKS
ABOUT "RIPPER" BILL.
Says It Will Not Be Passed Without
Giving This City a, Chance to Tack
on Amendments Favorable to Its
Needs Believes Senator FUnn Will
Compromise Says BUI Is Not a
Party Measure nnd No Senator
Will Enter a Caucus on It Hear
ings Arranged for Next Week.
Senator J. C. Vaufrhaii, who returned
homo yesterday from Harrlsburg,
stated to a Tribune man that It was
his belief that the Muuhlbronner "rip
per" bill for cities of the second class,
which has just been Introduced In the
legislature, would not be passed cither
by the senate or by the house until
tho pi'oplc of this city had a chance to
make known their wants and until
certain amendments favorable to tho
needs of this city had been embodied
In It.
"Tho bill," he said, "has been re-com
mitted to committee and hcarhiRs on
It will be hold either next week or
the week after. Delegations of citi
zens are expected fiom littsburg und
Allegheny to be heard on tho measuie
and I believe that a delegation fiom
this city should go down there and
present to the committee u crystnllza
tlon of tho views of the citizens of
Sciauton on the charier.
"It is hard to tell Just at this tlnu
what Ihe senate will do with the bill.
Very few of the senatois. Including
myself, have had time to give It a
careful study and 1 must say that I
have heard very few expressions of
opinion on It. Senator FUnn and tho
other Insurgsnts are opposed to the
bill.
A110UT A COMPROMISE.
"Just whether Senator FUnn will
agree to a compromise or not I cannot
say positively, but I am inclined to the
belief that ho will. Just what tho
terms of such a. compromise would bo
I cannot say. He has upon seveial oc
imsIous said to me thut he would favor
tho appointments of the heads of de
partments by mayors In ease the term
ot tho chief executive was limited to
two years.
"Ono thing Is certain, and that Is
that this eity doesn't necessarily have
to be ground between the mill stones
of factionalism, ns many people believe.
It should be thoroughly understood
that It Is not a party measure. No
senator can bo expected to go into
caucus and pledge his support to a.
bill like this one. 1 know that I would
not do so and I am t-uro that the rest
of the senators feel the same way.
"The questlun of centralizing nearly
all authority and responsibility In the
mayor I have not given much thought
lo. but theie Is one feature of the new
bill that 1 think should be amended
and that is the provision regarding tho
elertlon of -select and common council
men. I don't favor the election of se
lect i iiuiiellmen at laise, nor do I
favor the Idea of poimlttlng the amal
gamation of wards for the elertlon of
common esuiiif llnu-n In ease- a ward
hasn't got the reu.uM(c number of ta
ablos. "The latter plan would in this eitv
practically eliminate the minority and,
while I favor the rule of the niajoilty,
I am also a champion of minority rep
lesentntlon. I am altogether opposed
to the destruction of a minority rep
resentation which Is oft-times the bent
cheek against the extrungani'n of
leglslathe bodies. I favor the plan ot
electing cuuniilinen provided for In the
piesent second class charter.
COMING CONFERENCi;.
"The conference which I have ar
ranged for next Wednesday between
Senator Fllnn, city Solicitor Burleigh,
of I'lttsburg, and City Solicitor Vos
burg, of thlb city. Is principally for the
lun pose of dbcu&sing Mr. Vosburg's
contention that a third class city en
tering the second class will contiuuj to
operate tinder Its third class city laws
where those laws are not superseded
by news laws under the second class
charter.
"Both Senator I'llnu and Mr. Bur
leigh take Is-sue on thU point and
claim that when a city enters the sec
ond class It entirely n-pudlates Its third
class city charter. If this Is true many
amendments will have to be made to
the new bill lo nil omissions In tho
piesent law which are now tilled by
special nets applicable to only Pitts
burg and Allegheny.
"Vou can say that I believe that
amendments to Ihls bill can be agreed
upon which will bo satisfactory to tho
people of all three cities."

Profit Sharing Plan.
The Scranton Stove works, which Is
one of our largest local manufacturing
nstltutlons, has Inaugurated a new
policy of profit-sharing with Its em
ployes for tho year 1001. Whllo wo aro
not Informed as to tho details, we
understand that it Is to bo upon tho
basis of capital employed and wages
earned, each sharing In Its relative
proportion, each $100 of capital repre
senting the same lelntlon of profits ns
each $100 of wages earned.
We have no doubt that this new dc
partuie, Inaugurated by the olllcers of
this company, will prove of great bene
fit to tho concern, ns It must, of course.
be to all of their employes. We have
been Informed thnt every department
ran 2SS days dining 1000, while some
of tho departments were employed
more than 300 days, or every working
day excepting tho live legal holidays.
Probable Cause of Delay.
The current number of Saward's Coal
Trade Journal contains a notice pub
lished by the Erie Railroad company,
selling forth that the approval of tho
stockholders m desired to a proposi
tion to Issue preferred stock and bonds
to cover tha tecent purchase of the
Pennsylvania Coal rompany.
This would indicate thnt tho Penn
sylvania holdings are still In tho con
trol ot the bankers nnd explains tho
causa of the delay In the Krlo com
pany assuming active control of tho
Pennsylvania property.
In Process of Settlement.
The strike at tha Klotss Silk Throw
ing company's mill Is In process of
settlement.
Yesterday committees of thn em
ployes went lo the various other mills
of the city to learn the rates of wages
paid. They ore to be submitted to tho
company and, If it Is found that tho
average Is higher than that being paid
at the Klotz mill, the company will
grant an Increase to meet the average.
Annual Meeting Held.
The Lackawanna Lumber company
yesterday held Its annual meeting and
ejected directors as follows: F. L.
Peck. P. Davidson, E. R. Peck. J. W.

Some Great Cheapness in
Household Linens
N
Our linen hunter has just returned, bringing some big bargain game for the eco
nomical home-makers that fix their faith in the price and fibre of Connolly & Wallace's
Linens. It should be a gratification that Table Linens, Towels 'and Napkins can be had
cheaper in Scranton than in Europe (where most of them are made. This achievement
is only possible in great trading, Abroad the manufacturer is expected to carry the re
tailers' stock. This is not the American idea, We buy so largely that in many cases
the reduction in price will pay both duty and transportation.
