Sir John Murray recently showed
how remarkably the Black Sea differs
from other seas and oceans. A surface
current flows continuously from the
BLACK Sea into the Mediterranean. and
an under current from the Mediter-i
ranean into the Black Sea. The lat
ter current is salt, and, being heavier
than the fresh water above, 1t remains
stagnant at the bottom. Being sat
urated with sulphuretted hydrogen,
this water will not maintain life, and
SO the Black Sea contains no living in
habitants below the depth Of about 100
fathonls. The deeper water whan
brought to the surface smells exactly
like rotten eggs.

- nothing new about it, except "the
name and the treatment The disease
was We'll described in the older medical
books. and was then called '.typhlitis.''
But tts real character was rarely veri-

every patient who is not exhausted by
age or otherwise depleted.
