Give seen a man grind brass with the

workingman's health than grinding brass
The air 10 filed with PARTICLES OF the emery
wheel and the brass, and they are of course
inhaled by the workmen. The result with
a novice and with veteran when beginning
work, is bleeding at the nose and lungs for
several days. Then the bleeding stops,
the respiratory passages having become ap-
parently cauterzed. Whether the flow of
blood is simply the result of the irritation of
the physical contact Of the metallic parti-
clss, or whether the brass acts as poison,
we do not know But certain it is that these
brass grinders are very short-lived class

men engage in this dangerous work. Be-
cause they have good wages. They work
by the piece and with plenty to do they can
make sometimes $40 = week. 1t should be
added that sometimes the particles of brass
pass into the stomach and bowels and cause
hemorrhages.
