The use of radium In hospitals U becoming more and more demanded by the medical profession. Tho Sci entific American, In telling of Its med ical and surgical uses, explains that It Is a tool end not a medicine. The radium gives off three rays, known as the alpha, beta and gamma rays.

This my Is the one used In surgery. The rays are sent Into the body, and so powerful nro they that they can penetrate to a great depth, and there destroy the useless or dlsensed tissue. As the good tissue has a greater resistance than the bad, the highly skilled operative can boor the gamma rays on the olulcted part until they hegln to destroy the good tis sue, when the treatment must stop.
