The Prolonged Bath.

Mo ern Medicine says that a patient
in th8 ST. Louis hospital was recently
kept immersed in bathtub for six
weeks for the cure Of a large sloughing
abscefs a current of water being con-
stantly passed through the tub. The
writci has, within the last 20 years,
treated many cases of gangrene, crush
cd limbs, sloughing sores, etc, by this
method and has found better results
than y any other. It's success is due to
the asepsis secured by the constant i'm
mcrsi N. The presence of a large guam
tity O water is not favorable to the de-
velop nent Of pus forming germs, so that
suppulation is lcsscned and at the same
time he poisons resulting from the ac-
tion of the disease germs are washed
away. These poisons, when left in CON-
tact v ith the tissues, paralyze the liv-
ing cells and destroy them, thus him
dering the reparativc efforts, but by the
constant cleansing effected by the con-
tact &C water kept pure by frequent re.
newal the tissues are protected from the
toxic influence of these poisons, and
healthful repair il thus promoted.
Willie in Vienna so..o IL years ago
the writer found patients living in tubs
OF water who had been immersed for
periods varying from six months to a
year or more. The cells Of the body are
accustomed to contact with moisture. In
this respect they may even be compared
to aquatic animals. This blood cells are
carried by current of watery fluid,
and the tissue cells are all constantly
bathed in this fluid, so that the contact
of water with the living tissues is a
condition closely analogous to that
which is naturally maintained within
the body. New York Ledger.

Il Is Not t;are Plant. Nor Does It Grow
at Very Great Heights.
= It j. commonly reported and is no
less commonly believed by the inexperi-
enced tourist that edelwoiss is q plant
which only grows in the most dangerous
and il accessible situations OF course
with H., as with any other Alpine plant,
this m ly now and then happen. But as
rule is found on rough and rather
stony slopes Of grass, the ordinary pas
ture Of sheep and goats, at heights rang
ing from about 5000 20 5000 feet
above he sea level 1t is not often met
with below the former limit and seldom
nhovo the latter. Once it could be
pluckel-probably it has now been ex-
terminated-by the side Of path few
hundr, feet above Zermatt and within
half al hour Of the hotels. 1t was abun-
dant. and no doubt still is, all about
the littlo inn at tho Tosa falls, and it
may be- picked in handfuls within a
couple of hours easy walk from the
baths Of San Bernardino. That it is a
groat rarity is also an article Of faith,
but this is another myth. lt is doubt
less plant local rather than universal
in the Alps, but there are few districts
where it does not occur, often abundant
ly. What has caused it TO be so priced
is difficult TO understand. lt is an ever
lasting, but that is almost equivalent to
saying that it has no great beauty. The
plant attains a height Of about four
inches, having one or two flowers on q
stem. These are star shaped, a few
pointed rays down covered, as if they
We're cut out of pale gray velvet, sur

The cry stem and narrow leaves are
similarly covered. Its scientific name is

The edclweiss is an extremely easy
plant to raise from seed and should be
] treated as an annual The seed can be
obtained readily for few pence from
any respectable nurseryman. lt is, how
ever, very difficult plant to transplant
with any success. Sometimes the odel-
weiss, when torn from its native noun
tain and set ont in "a garden, will have
sufficient life in it to flower and then
pine away aud die This is the almost
invariable result Of these attempted
transp plantations.
1t may bo added that edelweiss, when
grown on anything like the sea level
or, in fact, anywhere away from home,
entirely loses its distinctive character
and becomes worthless as garden
plant Perhaps these remarks will save
some ourists sponge bags from being
