pms3 HERE la a good
deal of commotion
In medical circles
at present In conse
quence of a lecture
which was recently
delivered by Pr:
Schweninger, in
TXrCOTBerlIn. Dr.
Schweninger baa
been for yeara
Prince Blsmarck'fl
physician, and," like the ex-Chancellor,
Is extremely blunt and outspoken. He
has strong convictions, and never takes
the trouble to conceal them. When he
prescribes his favorite course of treat
ment, in which the use of water plays
a leading part, he sees that his instruc
tions are obeyed, and not even Prince
Bismarck ventures to disregard them.
In a word, the Doctor la a man of
striking Individuality, and hence his
opinion on any subject i8 Interesting.
Especially worthy of notice are his
views on medicine, as thla is the sub
ject to which he has devoted the best
years of his life.
In his lecture, the Doctor spoke of
medicine and doctors of medicine in a
mannr that will astonish all conaerva-
tlye physlclana. , We have no more
physiclana, he Bald, but in their place
we have a hoat of specialist. Medical
men of the old school have paased
away, making room for men of a
younger generation, each of whom, in
stead of laboring to acquire a thorough
knowledge of medicine In all its
branches, ia satisfied if he can acquire
a sufficient knowledge of one branch to
enable him to style himself a special
ist. Equally radical are his views in re
gard to the new therapeutical .methods
of treating various diseases. Serothe
rapy, in his opinion, will have outlived
Its uaefulneaa within the next half cen
tury, and the practice of vaccination
should only be tolerated and should
under no circumstances be made com
pulsory. To many modern "fads" the
Doctor is decidedly opposed, and he
says, without fear of consequences,
that cycling is the cause of many ills.
He goes even further. Our modern
dress is not pleasing to his eyes, and
be insists that men and women cannot
enjoy perfect health as long as the lat
ter wear corseta and the former hata.
"Away with hats and coraeta," la his
perslatent cry. And he tells us why he
is convinced that these artlclea of ap
parsl are injurious to human "health.
The popular opinion ia that corsets are
likely to prove injurious on account of
the pressure which they, bring to bear
upon a delicate portion of the body, but
Dr. Schweninger, on the , contrary,
maintains that they aro injurioua not
because they fit too tightly round the
body, but because they are too heavy.
He objects to men's hate for much
the same reason. They press too heavi
ly on the head, he says, and also pre-
vent the air from circulating as it
should, the result being a general ten
dency to baldness. .The modern fashion
of wearing the hair short la also dis
tasteful to him, and he warns us that
our health Is not improved thereby. He
would much rather see ua wear our
DR. SCHWENINGER.
hair long, after the fashion of the old
Merovingiana and the modeVi athlete8.
It will be seen that on all these points
the Doctor ia a reactionary, a pro
nouneed laudatur temporis act!
A8 regards the benedta of medicine,
he ia decidedly sceptical. Know thy
self ia hla advice, and then, if you take
proper cave of yourself, you will not
need any medicine. Should some dia
ease unexpectedly attack you, the best
thing you can do is to wait patiently
until It leaves you. Ab a rule, he
claims that drugs and dctor8 prove of
little service,
The Doctor, as will be seen, ia in
many reepecta a true disciple of Hippo
crates. The latter believed firmly in
the healing power of nature the
worda natura medicatrix were ever on
hla lips and the former Chancellor's
physician ia also a firm believer in the
same power. He reminds us somewhat,
too, of Galen and Paracelsus, and the"re
la no doubt that he has learned much
from these ancient worthie8.
His views on medicine and other
matters are certainly novel, but it
would be rather rash to assume from
them that the Doctor la utterly opposed
to all modern methods of treating the
sick. He rather seems to urge us not
to have recourse to drugs on every
trifling occasion, but to accept nature
as our healer. He says no hareh worda
about physicians, and it is evident
that he would give his best support to
those brethren of his own profession
who would be willing to take Hippo
crates and nature as their guides, and
to abandon many of ouf vaunted mod
ern drugs and so-called panaceas.
In conclusion, it may be said that
Dr. Schweninger's reputation as a phy-
mm
THE NEBRASKA INDEPEDENT
slelan was made many years ago, and
his views, therefore, on this vital sub
ject are entitled to every consideration.
Even those who disapprove of them
must admit that they are exceedingly
original and interesting.
IN PRAISE OF
THE WHEEL.
Cpon Which Age Itwlf
Kldes Back to
Youth.
Blessed be the man, say I, who in
vented bicycles! He builded better
than he knew. When he fashioned
the first wheel he unconsciously gave
women the long sought for secret of
perennial youth. This thought came ir
resistibly upon me Sunday morning as
I waited at Broad street siaiitni for a
belated train. While standing there a
woman passed whom I knew to be a
grandmother. I had to look a second
time. Clad in her bicycle costume sne
looked not a day over 25; her divided
skirt and perfectly fitting Jacket, open
ing over a white blouse, were of soft
gray serge; on her feet were dainty
patent leather shoes and the trimmest
of gray cloth gaiters outlined the girl
ish alenderness of her shapely legs. A
white stock nt her throat and a sailor
hat completed this costume, as chic
and modest and as lady like as the
most adverse bicycle critic could desire.
And she a grandmother. Shades of
Martha Washington and our colonial
ancestors! 1 .
Then at the pretty "Wheel," the pop
ular bicycle club of Marlon, new reve
lations awaited me.. There was a dig
nified matron in divided skirt and leg
gings who rode gayly in with her hus
band and two boys, and as she Jumped
off her wheel and tripped across the
lawn one would have sworn 16 was the
limit of her yeara. Truly, yes, the in
ventor of the bicycle builded better
than he knew, and let us hope that he
was no hater of women that, indeed,
would be the refinement of cruelty if
the power of rejuvenation had been
given woman by some crusty critic of
her sex. But after all wouldn't that
be what is called poetical Justice?

The King of Stars.
The great star Arcturus.which shiues
In the farthest heavenajushes through
space at the rate of 197,000 miles an
hour, or 4,728,000 milea a day. Just
think of that! How far do you think
this star is away from the earth? Only
1,069,500,000,000,000,000,000 miles an
inconceivable distance. We see it in
the heavens because its size is so im
mense, for it ia no less than 551,000
times greater than the sun. It gives
out seven thousand times as much
heat as the sun. If the earth could be
moved through space toward Arcturu3,
the spectacle that would be presented
to its inhabitants as they approached
that great star would be of indescrib
able magnificence. When we had ar
rived within something lesa than 8,000,-
000,000 miles, its light and heat would
be equal to that which we get from
our sun at a distance of only 93,000,-
000 miles. When we approached it as
close as Neptune, the intensity of its
heat would begin to be unbearable.
At the distance of Jupiter it would
emite the earth with the resistless en
ergy of its radiation. The forests
would burn, the oceans rise from their
beds in vapor, the ground would
smoke, and, before we could approach
as close as the earth is to the sun,
the whole of our globe would be melt
ed and dissipated In steam! Truly,
Arcturus is king among stars, and our
sun, great and brilliant aa it ie, if
dropped into the blazing photosphere
of that great planet, would be instant
ly swallowed up, and the only visible
evidence of its fate would be a sudden
flash. If a devil fish had been born at
the same date as Julius Caesar, June
12, 100 B. C with a tentacle 1,069,500,
000,000,000 milea long, and on the day
of its birth had ulaced one claw upon
the fervid surface of Arcturus, it would
yet require the lapse of several thou
sand yeara beyond the present date
before the sensation of the burn would
enter the creature's consciousness up
on the supposition that sensation trav
els with the same speed as light, 186,
000 miles per second. This means al
so that the little twinkle of light
which Arcturus gives out when we look
at it left the star inauy thousands of
years ago.
Of course the figurea bewilder one,
but, as far as they can be, they have
been proved correct

A DEADLY OCCUPATION.
nrlnglnr Oat Itorai From tba IUIU la
Drath Valley
The deadliest occupation for men o.
horses is teaming in the borax field oi
Death Valley of the great American
desert There the longest teams in
the world are employed. Scientists
declare that the fierce heat in this
narrow rent in the cracked surface of
the earth is not equaled elsewhere In
the world. Where the thermometer
often registers 140 degrees of heat, un
relieved by even a breath of air; where
men sleep at night in hollow ditches
filled with water in order to avoid dy
ing from collapse, the necessity for
tne longest teams of mules and horses
ever harnessed to draw the great borax-laden
wagons is apparent The des
ert team is the longest in the world,
and the percentage of deaths among the
horses is greater than that of domestic
animals used in any other calling. For
ty to sixty horses are often hitched to
one of the lumbering vehicles in which
the borax is slowly dragged across the
sun baked alkali plains. The average
life of even the sturdiest horses used
in this work is six months, for In ihis
length of time they either become
broken winded, consumptive from in
haling the deadly dust of the desert
or are driven crazy by the frightful
heat A man there, though protected
by the wagon awnings from the sun's
rays, can not go an hour without wat
er without danger of death. When
a team breaks down and the water sup
ply becomes depleted, the men ride at
top speed for the nearest source of
supply, and often when they retur
they find that the remaining horses,
made mad by thirst, have broken from
the harness and dashed off, only te
find death in the desert. The borax
wagons weigh 8,000 pounds, and carry
20,000 pounds at a load. Behind each
wagon is a tank containing hundreds
of gallons of water. The horses are
harnessed in pairs, the trained ones
in the lead, and the next in Intelligence
Just ahead of the tongue, while the un
ruly and the youngsters are hitched be
tween. The nigh leader has a bridle"
with the strap from the left jaw shorter
than the other, and from the bridle
runs a "braided rope which the driver,
perched on the wagon seat, holds in his
right hand. The rope is called the
"jerk line," and is a little longer than
the team, which stretches out several
hundred feet in front of the wagon.
During the busy season the borax
wagons make an almost continuous
train, and the horses alone, if placed in
single file, would make a team more
than 100 miles long. Besides a little
food and water, the poor animals get
no care. They curry themselves by
rolling in the burning sand. After a
few months of the killing labor the
poor creatures become unfit for service.
A kindly rifle ball then end3 their
agony, and their emaciated carcasses

Instantaneous Water Heater.
A greater boon to the housekeeper,
can hardly be Imagined than a quick
means of heating water. A water
heater which has just made its ap
pearance appears to have many good
points. It Is automatic in action, and
take3 care of itself night or day, stop
ping the consumption of gas needed
to heat the water as soon as its work
is done. This heater combines quick
ness of action and very high thermal
efficiency, with a complete circulating
system controlled by a thermostatic
regulator. The tank as it Is heated
goes to a storage tank or boiler (so-
called), and as soon as the temperature
in this boiler reaches the degree for
which the regulator is set, the ,'as is
automatically reduced, so that only so
much is burned as will keep the water
hot The house pipes are connected
with this boiler, as usual, so that warm
water can be drawn in the bath room or
at the various basins about the house.
When warm water is drawn, cold water
flows in to take its place, and the regu
lator at once turns on the gas to heat
the cold water, and then stops, as be
fore. This heating system insures a
full supply of warm water at any mo
ment, night or day, and at any part of
the premises. It also reduces the con
sumption of gas to a minimum, and
it removes one of the most serious ob
jections to gas stoves for general use.
It is claimed that this appliance will
heat twenty-four gallons of water with
forty-seven feet of gas, and much bet
ter results can be obtained by precau
tions to save the loss in radiation. It
is also stated that the heater will util
ize from 95 to 98 per cent of the totaj
heat of the gas.
Science Takes Another Step.
The successful use of a new tetanus
antitoxin In a New York hospital seems
to show that remedy for lockjaw has
been discovered at last. Heretofore
that comparatively common affliction
has been considered necessarily fatal,
because the physicians had no means
of relieving it. If an effectual remedy
has at last been found, the science of
medicine has added another to the
many great strides it has taken in re
cent years. Philadelphia Ledger.

MACADAMIZED WITH OEMS.
The Costliest Paving on Record n Kim
berley, South Africa.
The costliest macadam on record is,
without doubt, that which once paved
the streets of Kimberley, South Africa,
and which ' was so thickly studded
with diamonds that millions of dollars'
worth of gems rere taken from it, says
Literary Digest How this princely
roadbed came to be laid down is related
In an interesting note in Cosmos (Paris,
November 14), which we translate be
low: "The South African diamond
mines were discovered thirty years ago
quite accidentally. A peddler who was
traveling from farm to f?.rm on hi3
business noticed a brilliant stone amid
the pebbles with which some children
were playing on a farm situated near
the Vaal. The idea occurred to him
that perhaps it might have 3ome value.
He sent it in an unsealed letter to Dr.
Atherstone of Grahamstown, who was
something of a geologist; he recognized
in the stone a fine diamond. The fame
of this discovery grew, and soon the
diamond fever led many into the fields.
Mines were discovered and a camp was
quickly formed, which received the
name of Kimberley. Water was scarce
near these mines and, nevertheless, it
was almost indispensable for washing
the diamond-bearing soil and getting
the precious gemg out easily. Many
workmen tried to do without it and to
find their diamonds In tne dry eartn,
with the result that a great number of
the stones remained in the aeons or
the diamond-bearing soil that had been
subjected to search. The city of Kim
berley, growing rapidly, soon had a
municipal council, which, among other
things, undertook to macadamize its
streets. The debris that was in the
miners' way w&a found excellent for
this purpose. The city undertook, to
the great satisfaction of great numbers
of workmen, to rid them of their rub
bish heaps."
