The manifestations of Influenza in this section of the country during the past two months have been numerous and varied, although the malady has been far less directly fatal than on its first appearance in the winter of 1889–90. The different types of the disease, the pulmonary, the nervous and the abdominal, have been less distinctly marked, but it has been especially severe in the case of elderly people when appearing as an intercurrent affection. Another noticeable feature is, that the disease has shown a greater disposition to attack children than in former years, although when children have been enjoying usually good health, fatal results have been rare. This, however, has not been the case with sickly or puny children, as the disease has manifested itself in various ways, such as throat, ear and other complications. In many cases nothing more than the peculiar pains characteristic of the disease have been noticed; in others, it has passed off with nothing more serious than would result from a bad cold, so that large numbers have fought it out on this line. The prevalence of the malady in the vicinity of Philadelphia, and we presume this observation holds good elsewhere, has been wide spread, showing conclusively that it is largely dependent upon atmospheric influences. Indeed, up to the present writing, the condition of the weather has been extremely favorable to the development of influenza, and we all hope that better weather during the remainder of the winter will tend to check its spread.
