THE BLUE LIGHT CURE.


A a recent call upon General Pleasan-
ton, l found him very corpulent and
aiable old gentleman, with snow-while
hair aud beard. He expressed himself
happy to give me all the Information in
his power about the virtues of blue light.
| asked if he had known of its influence
upon animal and vegetable life for any
longth of time.
"Yes," he replied, 1--WE had blue
panes IN my grapery for more than ten
years, and the action OF the light upon
the plants was really wonderful The
vines or parts OF vines exposed to the
blue rays attained Development won
derfully greater than those influenced
solely by the ordinary lights, and Mr..
Buist, distinguished florist, has been
very successful in resortiug to healthlUl
vigor numerous plants, apparently dying,
by the same plan"
What is the principle, General ?"
" Why, the electromagnetic devel-
oped by tho passage OF the SUMS rays
through plain, transparent glass, associ
ated with blue glass possesses wonderful
curative powers"
"What kind Of glass do you use 9'
A French glass Of dark Malarne
blue. Ii is colored with cobalt, tho in
gradients of the glass and the metal be-
ing fused together"
What is the method Of appliance
say to II little girl with curvature OF the
spine ? know one so afflicted"
Well, if you want an exceedingly
strong light, have II whole sash filled
with blue paues, and place it immediate
ly in front O! your ordinary sash. Then
bare the little girl's back down TO her
hip, SO as to have the spino exposed to
the influence Of the b'ue light. Then,
when the sun is shining, scat her on II
chair little way from the window, SO as
not to be exposed to the draught coming
| in through the creyices Of the window,
and let her take sun bath Of half an
hour or SO. DO that for several days,
and, l., tho child desires, give her auotho,
bath in the afternoon. Give her no med
icine allow her TO eat what agrees with
her, and | anu confident that the child
will be greatly reioyed-I hopo entirely
cured"
:" Is it necessary TO have an entire sash
OF blue panos ?"
Oh, no. Generally half a dozen panes
are sufficient, But The patient must
move rs the sur moves"
g It's effect upon your injured back wa.
astonishing !"
Very true. But it has effected much
more wonderful cures. Only this morn
ing received letter from Cairo, Hi
uois, from a lady who had been afflicted
with dreadful case OF spinal meningitis.
She had suffered for four years, and wa.
cured BY The blue light process"
" Is it, then, invariably successful ?"
$50 !al, am happy to say it is"
" Are you going to take any steps t,
secure a pccunary benefit lrom your dis
coyery ?"
Not at all, sir. If people wore going
to make money out OF it, ia chargo them
for license. But It's power must not be
hampered. 1t is SO essentially Il cure by
Gods unlimited clements that wish ul
mankind to participate in the benefits o
it, All ask is chat anyone trying th.
process shall send me an account OF 1t.
operation and the result. Whether gooo

cases"
Wen, then, as l understand it, any
one suffering from local disease is sim

arne blue, French the best place it il
front Of the ordinary plain window glass
so that the light will pass through th,
blue Immediately upon coming from The
ordinary glass, the diseased part to be OK

is particularly eGicacious in all disease
OF the spine. Any one trying it is not a
