THE DRUGGISTS (
THE NEW
DISEASE
Baffling Physicians at Lincoln and
Havelock
A strange disease Is attacking the
children in some parts of the state
and the doctors are having a hard
time in fixing a name for it. It is
somewhat like spinal meningitis, and
almost Invariably fatal. The Lin
coln Star, in speaking of the two
cases In Lincoln and Havelock, says:
"A second case of poliomyelitis in
the vicinity of Lincoln has been dis
covered In the illness of Mildred
Xewell of Havelock. She has been
ill for abou. t o weeks and local
doctors have made a diagnosis of
Poliomyelitis, discarding the lirst be
lief that the disease was spinal men
ingitis. In all respects tho case
seems to be similar to the numerous
cases that perplexed physicians In
and near York and Stromsburg and
which resulted in a number of
deaths. The Newell home has been
quarantined and every precaution Is
being taken of which the doctors
know to prevent a spread of the dis
ease. "The two diseases are much alike
in many respects. The examinations
made to determine the real nature of
the malady have been confusing.
"From a victim of the disease, who
died near York, a Bmall quantity of
fluid was taken from the spinal cav
ity and this revealed the presence of
diplococcl, an organism peculiar to
mneingltis. In another case a section
of the spinal cord of a victim was
analyzed and the result was nega
tive. Spinal meningitis attacks the
meninges or membranes about the
cord. Poliomyelitis attacks the
spinal cord itself and it Is not impos
sible that there would be a sympa
thetic inflammation or disorder of

f
the surrounding membranes. In a
general way the symptoms of the dis
eases are about the same. The most
remarkable feature of the entire epi
demic, considering the large number
of cases that have appeared in the
state, is the mildness of the attack
and the comparatively negligible re
sults. Severe attacks of either dis
sease sometimes leave permanent
paralysis of a part of the body. The
first case noted In Lincoln resulted
fatally about three weeks ago."
Looking for Help.
The following from Major Flemke'
of tlje Gospel Army, addressed to
Judge Douglas, will explain itself:
Creston, la., Oct. 7, 1909. Dear
Sir: As I told you yesterday, that I
would go to Glenwood looking up a
church to hold meetings, but I chang
ed my mind, and I am on my way to
Des Moines, la., to see if I can get a
good captain and wife to take charge
of our mission work, as I myself caa
do nothing. Yours Respectfully,
W. R. FLEMKE.

of hard fighting by both sides th
Jury brought In a verdict for Dicker
