ORE THAT CURES RHEUMATISM
At Lea it, It Is Said That Mineral

formed Wondara.
Radium mining In tho Paradox Val
ley of Colorado haB developod a very
curious by-product In tho shape of -mn
unlooked-for cure for rheumatism.
Tho government buroau of mines

with uranium and vanadium.
It haa been found that the men en
caged in working these deposits, If
they happen to nufferora from rheu
matism, are cured of the malady. Not
only that, but their general health
aeoms to be benefited in a romarkablo
way.
ThlB Is u matter of no small Im
portance Whllo radium Itself Is the
most costly thing In the world, being
worth over $2,500,000 an ounce, tho
oro from which it Is taken Is by no
meanB bo procioua that anybody of
moderate moaiiH could not afford, to
buy and keep on hand a oonsidorable
quantity of it.
It takes a ton of "carnotlto" to pro
duce a bit of radium no biggor than
the head of a pin; and tho cost of the
radium Is duo mainly to the difficulty
of tho processes Involved in extract
ing It,
Perhaps if the sufferor from rhou
mathim wero to keop a few pounds of
"carnotlte" by him he would experi
ence rollef. Tho matter, of course, Is
wholly one of speculation as yet
There Is no question of the faot that
radium la good for rheumatism. It
has boon used very successfully In tho
treatment of this distressing troublo,
tho method commonly adopted being
to allow the patient to breathe tho

striking of these new animals are two

one fossil horse, which is easily one

hitherto; one extra large and interest
