ExrAsDING THE CHEST DIR. Dio Lew

ExrAsnING THE CHEST. r.-Dr. Dio Lew
is writes:
Take strong rope, and fasten il 10 a
beam overhead; to the lower end of the
rope attach 4 stick three feet long. convc-
MEN, to grasp with the hands. The rope
should be fastened to the center of the
stick. which should harg six or eight
inches above the head. Let a person
grasp this stick with the hands two or
three feet apart, and swing very molcr-
atcly at frst-pcFlaps Only bear the
weight, if very weak-and gradually iu-
crease, as the muscles gain strength from
the exercise, until it may he uscl from
three to five times daily The connection
of the arms with the breast bone, being

feet of the c!avicle with the brcastbone.
being a muscular attachment to the ribs,
the effect Of this exercise is 10 elevate the
ribs and enlarge the chest; and rs nature
allows no vacuum, the lungs expand to
fill the cavity. increasing the volume Of
air, the natural purifier Of blood. and pre-
venting the congestion or the deposit Of
tuherculous matter.
We have prescribed the above for all
cases Of hcmorrhage Of the lungs ard
threatened consumption Of thirty ve
years, and have been able to increase the
measure Of the ches. from two to four
inches within few months. and with
good results But especially as a proven
tive we would recommend this exercise.
Let those who love to live cultivate 4 we'll
formed. capacious chest. The student.
the merchant, the sedentary. the young Of
both sexes-ay. all-should have a swing
on which to stretch themselves daily. We
are certain that if this were prac;iccd By
the risi6g generation in a dress allowing
free and full development of the bo5N
many would be saved from consumption.
independently of its beneficial results. the
exercise is an exceedingly pleasant one,
and as the apparatus costs very little. there
need be no difficulty about any enjoying

Pisa TREES AS MEDICAL Asrxr..

Pisx TREES AS MEDICAL AswSr..-
Although some forests are regarded as
sources OF malaria. and oak trees aud haze
bushes have been counted institutions in
Europe, like the tamarind trees in the
East. yet the air Of pine tree forests ap-
pears always grateful to the lungs. aud
has been considered wholesome, although
Of its absolute curative influence there is
little evidence. aud. indeed, it must be
difficult to procure such. The idea Of
pine forests exercising balmy influence
on the lungs is very ancient one. Pliny
considered that the air Of the pine forests
was more useful in phthisis aud in conva-
lescence from acute diseases than the voy-
age to Egyp, recommended in such cases
IN those days. Both Bournemou,h and
Arachon at the present day owe a good
deal of,heir reputation to their pine woods.
The air of the latter is said TO be distinc-
lively scdative. On the whole. then. the
air of the pine woods of the Black Fores,
may be regarded as an element entering
into consideration of the value fits baths.
But besides merely inha,iug the air of
its forests. people have of late years made
much use of the prcductso o: pine in baths.
vapor baths and inhalations Even this
is not entirely modern for the ancien,s
recommended chiefly the internal use Of
decoc;ions of strobii and of pine tops. and
thought pine knots very useful in disease
OF the chest; and at n more modern time,
besides the internal use of drinks made
from the spruce aid the tar-wa,er so long
in vogue. VIC had inhalations Of tar and of
various resins.
The ancients did, indeed, recommend
in gout baths OF water in which cedar wood
had been boiled. but the use of the pine
extract bath isquite modern. Itlas spread
rapidly. aud is In use AT Gleisweiler. Reh-
burg. Diebenstcin. Rubia, and Eiscnach.
These aromatic extracts are procured from
various pincs-as from the Abies. excel
sa, or Norway spruce. silver fr, Pinus
sylvestris, or Scotch fir. Pinus MARTINA,
or Bordeaux pine, the Weymouth pine.
also from the common larch, aud the most
fragrant of all from Y. pumiiio, the noun
tain pine. The baths vary considerable
in strength and in odor, according to the
way in which they are prepared. The
commonest way of making the bath is by
adding 10 common water certain guam
tl'y of the detection. got by pass.n steam
through the young pine-,ops.
