CURED BY HANGING.


The New Treatment OF Persons Ami ed
with Tables DorsaIis-
Who is there that has not met In the
street lettering along, supporting him
self on a cane or on the arm Of an at
tendant, some unfortunate victim TO
that strange disease to which physi-
clans have given the name Of tables
dorsalis, or-as it was called by Du-
chene. who was the first to describe it
-ataxie locomotrice progressive?
About FIVE years ago a young Rus
sian physician, DR.. Motschutkowsky
OF Odessa. hit on an altogether new
treatment which is now attracting the
attention Of the medical profession on
both sides OF the Atlantic. His treat
ment aims at curing the curvature OF
the spinal column-which is believed
TO be the true cause of the disease-by
means Of suspension, with the aid OF
apparatus invented by DR. Seyre. of
New York, for the treatment OF spinal
diseases. The object of suspension is
to produce regular and continual trac-
ton on the patients spine.
p
article on the subject OF ataxie loco
motrice, illustrated by cuts, shows how
the head is supported by the chin and
occiput in the apparatus in manner
which precludes all danger Of strangu-
lation. The essential parts Of the APP
paratus consists OF horizontal bar of
about the same length as the breadth
Of the patients shoulders, suspended
by means Of a hook and pully from
the ceiling or any other elevated point
The bar has at each end hook, from
which hangs a padded strap forming a
look The patients arms are passed
through these straps, which serve to
carry large part OF the dead weight
Of his body. This is necessary for the
reason that were the whole weight al
lowed to bear upon the head and neck.
unbearable torture would result At
the same time it is important that this
support under the armpits should not
be too great for then the traction
would not be sufficient to produce the
elongation Of the vertebral column,
ment
When the apparatus is in place and
adjusted to the patient the rope pass
ing through the pulley is drawn down
slowly and steadily until the patient is
lifted from his feet. At first suspen-
sion is limited to half minute at a
time, but this time is gradually in
creased until it reaches a maximum of
from three to four minutes, result
usually obtained on the seventh or eight
day.
While thus far the results are not
sufficiently conclusive to allow it to be
asserted that the treatment is an abb
solute cure for the disease, it is certain
that in the great maj ority OF cases very
marked and considerable amelioration
of the worst symptoms OF the disease
have been obtained. Since October
last niDety-one cases have been treated
by suspension at the Saltpetriere Hos
pital. under the supervision of DIR.
Charcot. All OF these, with the ex-
ception Of those who have not been
under treatment long enough for the
results to be apparent, are very much
better.
Prof Charcot says: Hitherto we
have not known what to advise for I'M
fortunates afflicted with this disease,
but until we have proof to the contrary
/ shall unhesitatingly tell them to go
and hang themselves. European

An old soldier told us he would like to
visit the sol 'iers home occasionally, but
he could just as well think OF going TO
Saa Francisco as to the Hills. In fact the
present route to the Hills is via Sioux City
and Nebmska--about the same thing as
making trip to Indianapolis. The offer
Pierre makes is large substantial brick
building and grounds, worth many thous-
ands OF dollars. The Hot Springs offers
mountain scenery and spring of water Of
the same temperature as our artesian well
80 degrees. III Pierre had made the same
offer she now does at the time of the ked-
field encampment, the result of the soldier
vote would have been different. Consid-
ering the depleted condition Of the terri
torial treasury, we do not see how the leg
islature can wisely do otherwise than ac-
cept the Pierre offer.

NOW YOU'RE SHOUTING

Col Plummer in his North Dakota Re
publican:-The bill introduced in the
council by Mr. Campbell of Brown, defin-
ing legal newspaper. is not strong
enough. The bin lprovides that a newspr.
per must have circulation of 250 copies
in order to receive legal advertising of any
nature. Make the minimum circulation
500 copies and compel the publisher TO
print the entire pap at home from move
able type, and the law would be of some
benefit. II would be the means of giving
Dakota better newspapers and fewer OF
them, two things that are badly needed by
a long suffering, much imposed but
patient public,
