CYCLING FOR ASTHMA.

ease Favor Riding on the Wheel.
The value of bicycle riding for that
portion of humanity suffering with
divers ailments that may be benefited
by exercise is no longer disputed very
largely. An English physician who has
made the study of bicycle riding as it
pertains to asthmatic persons the OBJ
ject of special research has come out
unqualifedly i'm favor of the use of the
wheel. "'. '-'.'.' .'.''' .'s'
Asthma, according to the generally
accepted idea, may be cured, or at least
relieved, by exercising the respiratory
organs. Asthma is known by great
many as shortness of breath. The
slightest eXertion out of the ordinary
causes palpitation of the heart and
choking. half-suffocatedr feeling. The
face and head become extremely warm
and flushed, and the sensation of ex-
treme discomfort has a depressing eff
feet upon the system.
Nearly all first beginners on the bi-
cycle find hill climbing decidedly an
noying. The heart throbs with each
effort of the limbs, and the blood eurges
In heat waves over the body. Perspira-
tion is greatly accelerated and hill
climbing is voted nuisance Constant
practice, however, if theaheart be sound,
soon enables cyclists to climb ordinary
hills with a comparative degree of COM
fort. ...'''' >. ,.' - 81.
It was the resemblance Of the symp-
toms Of asthma to the trials of the hill
climber that induced the physician who
investigated the subject to experiment
with cycle riding upon asthmatic pa
tients. ".'' ',..'. .... .'..i a'. ~"
He found, first of all, that bicycle
riding, whether by invalids or well per-
sons, increased the depth Of breathing
without fatigue. More air was taken
into the lungs to aerate the blood.
/ Chest expansion Increased slightly. y"
The patient with asthma could not
ride very far at first without vpheezirF
and coughing. At night he choked up
about as badly as ever. Little. by little.
day after day, this wore off, and, at
length, after year of moderate riding.
it dawhed upon him one day that he was
so much improved that a ride Of 30
or 40 miles did not fatigue him In the
Least. Furthermore, all that disagree
able tightness over the chest at might
from which he had suffered for years
was gone.
In another year he could ride so miles
where he had been able to ride Is, and
without any discomfort. F" During the
winter he rode indoofEh i'' ~. 1872
To-day he is practically well. Amer
lean physicians, who have studied the
subject, are inclined to agree with tie
theory of the bicycle cure for asthma.

in New York of men who Seem to be rar-
TALLY cured by judicious use of the

the latter sold up at first hands. In the

Jobbing circles business continues on a
very liberal scale.
