continuing to make their appearance for a period of two to three days on the average Each crop requites about 36 hours to pass through the sev eral stages Lesions are superfic ial and rupture very easily: The germ of this disease is spread directly from person to person Indirectly from articles freshly soiled by discharges from an Infected person About six days must elapse after the ap pearance of tho first eruption be fore the patient can be consider ed non communicable Mr Bal lard indicated Confusion between the disease and smallpox plus the possibility of secondary infections due to scratching of the lesions is re sponsible for the chief importance given chicken pox Control meth ods are limited but the patient should be excluded from school and avoidance of contact with non itnmune persons effected Articles soiled by discharges from the nose and throat should be burned and at the termination of the disease a thorough clean ing of soiled articles should be made Quarantine
