From the London News.
1t was with great pleasure, writes
correspondent, that accepted the invita-
ton Of DR.. Hedley, who is in charge of
the electro-therapeutic department of the
London Hospital. to go down to White
chapel and see the new ward which has
been specially built in the hospital for
the new light treatment of lupus and kim

most frequent in the female SEX. and
other eruptive diseases. So pleased was
the Princess with all that she was shown
that she determined to introduce Prof.
Finsens treatment into England. She
accordingly arranged for its installation
al the London Hospital an institution in
which she takes great interest, and the
apparatus che cost of which she has her.

Prof. Finsens treatment is in itself Of
so interesting character, and it's results
have been so satisfactory that we are
sure our readers will be glad to hear par
ticulars Of the new addition to the heal
ing art Some time back Dr. Finsen
Instituted a "red-light trea tment for
smallpox, and since then he has extended
IL to different skin diseases known or sup
posed to be caused by certain microbes.

briefly, the Finsen method consists in
treating local superficial bacterial skin
diseases by the concentrated chemical
rays of light There is no more certain
fact than that the sun is a great destroy
err OF germ life. Experiments have shown
that on days OF bright sunshine at noon in
July and August the sunlight win kill

and a half, while an electric arc lamp of

is of no use as a curative agent in skin
diseases unless some means is found of

eesed part that its healing effect will be
greatly augmented. At the Copenhagen
Light Institute the patients are exposed
to sunlight in the summer when the sky
is bright and on dull days 40 the light of
electric arc lamps of so to so amperes.
The apparatus has to make the light
stronger, but it is also designed with
view to cooling the rays, so that they do
not burn the skin. 1t consists of a lens,
made up of a plain glass and a curved
one; between the two is a light blue and
weak ammoniacal solution of copper sui
phate. The heat rays known as the ul-
tra-red, red and yellow rays of the spec

the lens, while the strength of the blue,
violet and ultraviolet rays, which have a
DIES troying influence on bacteria. are hard
ly impaired by passing through the blue
liquid In the center of an iron ring is
the arc lamp, and radiating out from this
are four tubes for the concentration of
the light on to the four patients. These
tubes, which look like telescopes. are fit
ted with lenses of quartz. Between the
lenses there is distilled water. to cool the
rays by absorbing the heating ones. 1t
should, however. be mentioned that the
light rays as concentrated by the instru-
ments described above are still too warm

IT, To get over this difficulty, the skin
has to be cooled, in order TO avoid burn
ing. and this is done by means of a Gu
rious little dish" This is a plate of
quartz and a plain convex lens Of quartz;
to each of the four arms is fastened an
elastic band, by means of which the whole
plate is pressed against the skin. Cold
water is made to run into one of the
tubes and out of the other, and in this
way the skin is cooled so that IL can
stand the strongest light. In the treat
ment Of lupus, a small area of the skin
is exposed to the light either of the sun
or Of the electric arc for about an hour
every day.
There has also been installed quite late
w at the London Hospital another variety
of the light cure. This is the "Dowsing
Radiant Heat and Light Bath" invented
By Mr.. H. j. Dowsing. This process re-
lies on light and heat combined to cure
diseases. Prof. Finsen in his method re-
lies on light alone. The Dowsing Ra-
