 death-iike paleness and the patient passes through sleepless nights.

 fthese symptoms should not be removed, the un- happy sufferers will before long find themselves under the influence ofthe established hectic fever the signs of which appear twice day. The first paroxlsm or

During the first stage it has been stated the bowels costive, but in this stage the looseness the bowels almost always comes and continues to the last. The hair IS shed, and the nails of the fingers become bent inward. The feet are often affected with soft swelling, and fre- quenty towards the close the patient becomes der- lous, and 1t is only necessary to add that during the whole course of this last stage, the cough increases and the approximation becomes more copous. By this description of the disease in its three stages the most common reader may be sufficiently informed of the symptoms which attend upon consumption.
