Heatstroke and Sunstroke.
Heatstroke and sunstroke are terms
usually applied indifferently to either j
of two quite d ??inct conditions, to ;
each of which only one of the names ?
properly applies. Heatstroke, as its !
name imp': >s, is a condition caused by j
the act! mi of excessive heat, either the j
torrid heat of summer or the artificial
heat of a foundry, a fnmace. the stoke- I
hole of a steamship, etc. It occurs
with almost as err at frequency at
nipbt as In the day. and Its victims
may be overcome on a cloudy day or
without havlnc ventured from their
homes. The other form, properly call- j
ed sunstroke, is due to the direct ac- I
tion of the snn probably of Its ultra i
violet or chemical rays rather than of
it* heat rays. Only those who have I
been lone exposed to the direct rays of i
the sun. sucb as soldiers on the march. |
harvesters, ball players, etc.. are the
subjects of true sunstroke.? Dr. T. L j
Stfl ??i.in in Good Housekeeping.
