lot out moiturc exuding- from the skin and the temperature is raised to -250 to 200 degrees Precautions are laken to pre vent the limb from coming in contact win the hot -metal and the application is continued for fully 10 minutes Two patients were broughtinor the experiment One was a man -who had Vcen under the care of a physician who -was present for -several mon2cs and had been gradually growing -worse He as unable to move mis tocsor his ankle and any motion of the limb caused excruciating pain At -the end of H minute during which time his temperature was raised nearly two de grees as by the mouth ther mometer and his pulse increased about 15 beats petvminute the limb was taken out of the cylinder the patient moved his toca aa freely as does a child bent his ankle wi1 bout difficulty and walked with ease feeling no pain Other rheumatic pains in other portions of tjhe body had also disappeared VThe second patient was a negro who -was suffering froni a long continued

in perfect health The temperature in the first case was from 248 to 2G0 degrees Fahrenheit In the discussion -which followed it was stated by the exhibitor that these men would probably be better in the morning than tlieyappearcd to lie when the experiment closed and that in most cases one application is sufficient Where extensive deposits had been made several applications were neces sary to remove them The system has been in use in the principal hospitals of London with wonderful success In the discussion which followed it was stated by the exhibitor that this method dissolved and carried off the deposits upon the bones and in the inuscJes and that this effect ex tended in a greater or less degree to the whole body The apparatus used is new f vrrthe first time brought to the

1000001 -each year Condensed milk is not onl a very important article of consump tion in miniizg camps and great n nches but is iargely shipped abroad for the Asiatic trade It iB brought across the continent from New Jer sey California -also sends beyond its herders from 20000000 to 25000- 000 annually for the item of sugar should not only be produced in sufficient cpiaiftities to supply con

carrying away the masts Then the schooner righted but sank with nearly all of her deck under the waves -for she was full of water When the schoojier settled in tie water only a small portion of the
