preach of Death.
There «re certain lymptaoj* which
are universally recognized aa fore­
casting death. \ Most of these were
recognized t by Hippocrates, and it
seems strange that very few signs
have been added since his day,
though millions upon militawg of
parsons have observed others dy-

Medical Association devotes four
to an address read by Dr.
omas F. Reilly, professor of ap>
therapeutics, Fordham Uni-
varsity College of Medicine, before
tile Harlem Medical association,
is lacking here for even a
try of this address, but a few
tts made by Dr. Reilly ought
ganeraliy to be known.
So long as there is life left in the
body in Vpboid fever and cholera
no doctor can predict e fatal end-
" V acute diseases a pulse that
steadily increases in frequency hour
by hour generally means early death,
i f other signs of serious illness are
pteeent, in an adult.
Other almost sure indications of
approaching death are refusal of
the pupils to react to light, glased
pupils, temperature of 108 F. (ex-
" cept in heat stroke) and of 107 last­
ing more than two hoars; persistent
sum uncontrollable hiccups in any
serious illness, the loss of more than
half the body weight, gritting of
the teeth in the course of fever in
adults.

There are other signs which Dr.
Reilly classes as folklore, but says
are generally'' true. Among these
are tense ana shiny forehead, desire
of a patient to go home or go to
green fields, constant changing of
position in bed, picking at the bed­
clothes (except in typhoid) and
coldness of the feet and knees.
