Address Dr. W. J. Scholes, in care of The Durham Chronicle. At some time or other, almost everyone has suffered from the annoying symptom known as hiccough. Some peeple, probably on account of faulty habits, are fre- quent sufferers. While the great majority of attacks of hiccough are correctly regarded as nothing serious, we occasionally read in the newspapers of a prolonged at- tack of hiccough having been the cause of death. The fact that death from this cause is in itself regarded as news would appear to indicate that it is comparatively rare.
