DANGER OF FATIGUE.
II Generates a Poison In the System That
Is Deadly In Its Nature,

Is Deadly In Its Nature.
''He never loses a moment" used to
be thought an unqualified compliment.
Now we are not quite so sure that it
says much for the wisdom Of him to
whom it is applied. From many differ
ent directions comes the testimony that
too much activity is loss instead of gain,
since overfatigue poisons. the physical
system.
An analysis has been made of the
poison engendered by fatigue, and it
has been found to be similar to the an
Cient vegetable poison, curari, into
which the Indians used to dip their ar
rows, and most deadly poison it was.
The poison of fatigue is of the same
chemical nature and is as truly deadly
if it is created more rapidly than the
blood can carry it off. There is no
known antidote for this poison, and its
dangers beset alike the pleasure seeker
and the worker

was defective. After a rest of two hours
most of them could hear as well as ever.
Another practical test was made upon
90 grammar school children who were
to take part in written examination of
az hours. Before entering upon the
strain which such an examination must
necessarily be each child was instructed
to lift as much as he could with the
dynamometer. This was done to test the
muscular strength of each pupil before
the examination.
After the work in the schoolroom was
ended the children were again told TO
lift as much as possible in the same
way. 1t was found that, with one or
two exceptions, they could not lift as
much by several pounds as they had
lifted before the examination,

THE HEART AND THE BLOOD.
Views of Scientists Who Differ with Har-
vey's Theory on Their Relations.

.
vey's Theory on Their Relations.
Do you know that some of the very
best physicians in the land are far from
being satisfied that the heart is the Or
gan which causes the blood to circulate
in the veins and arteries? The theory of
Harvey, which maintains that the i'm
pulsive stroke Of the heart is "the sole
motive power" is disputed by persons
who know more about blood circulation
in a minute than he ever did in his life.
Various causes for the phenomena of
blood circulation are assigned by the
different students of the subject, but
the majority Of those who differ from
Harvey say that the true cause of circu-
iation is to be found in respiration.
That function brings carbon into the
lungs. This carbon mixes with the
venous blood, the mixture forming the
true fuel of animal life. The oxygen
which is also taken into the lungs with
every breath mingles with the carbon,
and slow form of combustion ensues.
Wherever combustion is going on heat
is evolved. In this case the heat is com
municated to the blood, which is about
seven-eighths water.
The lungs being in partial vacuo and
having a temperature Of at least 80 de-
grees above that required to change wa
ter into vapor (when the water in ques-
ton is in complete vacuum), steam is
generated. This enlarges the volume of
the blood and exerts specific force.
The valves on the right side of the heart
close against this force, while those on
the left open to give it free passage.
Thus, according to this theory, the true
motive power is produced which first
causes and then keeps up the circulation
of the blood.
When this theory is elaborated, it is
very conclusively proved that the heart
has nothing whatever to do with the
circulation of the blood but to deter
mine, by its valves, the course of the
current and, by the mechanical force
of the stroke, to equalize the f1ow.-St.
