“They started calling it the ‘three-day fever’ here, but couldn’t camouflage it with a name when it runs its course in a week or more. It hits suddenly and one’s temperature nearly chases the mercury thru the top of the M.D.’s thermometer, face gets red, every bone in the body aches and the head splits wide open. This continues for three or four days and then disappears after considerable perspiration, but the ‘hangover’ clings for a week or two.”
