BEGINNINGS OF DISEASE,

KIHAUSTION THE FIRST SIGN,

The medical correspondent of the Times writes Modern medi- cal research in disected, în ita most advanced aspects, to the discovery of the earliest signs of disease. The work has revealed all manner of unexpected facts, and it is time that some of these here, again, we are dealing with observation made vary, re- cently and still subject to sharp criticism should be placed before the public.

One of the greatest of all origin al thinkers in medicine recently informed the writer" that after long investigation, he had come to the conclusion that the first and. earliest of all the signs of disease was exhaustion. His view corresponds to that reached by other workers in the same field. It is necessary, however, to define what we mean by exhaustion. What we do not mean is the state of complete, mental and physical "eraptiness" which fol- lows great effort. The symptom we are dealing with is far slighter: than that-it might be better to call it simply a limitation of the field of response to calls for effort. For example, a man has been accustomed to walk up a certain staircase brisky and without any discomfort.

In previous articles we attempt- to show that the poisons of disease act specially on the nervous system in a very great many cases. Recent research has shown that fatigue, though it is felt in the muscles, really occure in the brain and spinal cord-in other words, that the brain cells get tired before the muscles they
