THE EODY TRANSPARENT.
Curious Photographic Experiment
That Proves 1t.
Ledger Monthly.

Ledger Monthly.
Some most remarkable experiments in
photography have been successfully made
j. w. Kline has demonstrated that pho
tograph can be taken through human
body with ordinary light, without the
of an X-rsy machine.
The discovery Is closely connected with
the cure for tuberculosis. DIR. Kline an
ncunced some time ago that he had dis
covered a cure for tubercular troubles,
either of the skin or lungs. by the aid OF
light concentrated upon the affected part.
Light is the best germicide known TO
science. Acting upon this theory, DR.. Kline
conducted experiments by which he be-
lieved the tubercular bacilli could be ex-
terminated by the concentration of light,
any by causing 1t to penetrate into the part
diseased. To do this he uses a blue glass
disk, the object being to retain the light
rays, while destroying the heat rays.
To prove that light would penetrate the
human tissues, DR.. Kline has been con-
which have resulted in the taking of IL
photograph with light which first passed
through the patients chest.
The picture was taken by a local photog-
rapher Previous to this, pictures had
been taken through the cheek and arm
with more or less distinctness. One Of the
patients of DIR. Kline was used for the ex-
periment lie was taken into a dark room
and his clothing removed from his waist
up.

placed a fresh Photographic plate. The two
were then placed one above the other, with
the picture negative next TO the skin, upon
the patients back, between the shoulders
over these was placed black paper,
and the edges pasted securely TO his skin
about the edges of the negative To eX-
clude the light as nearly could be pos
sibly DONE the patients back and shoulders
were wrapped and wound about with heavy
dark cloth, and over this was thrown an
oyercoat, and all drawn tight.
The light was concentrated on his chest
for thirty minutes, after which he was
taken into a dark room and the negative
removed 1t was found that the picture
on the first negative had been distinctly

The Coming Shirt Waists.

New York Sun.
Silk shirtwaists, so much in demand at all
times. and especially now. for spring wear
before the weather will permit of the thin
ner varieties. are very pretty made of the
plain Louisine. which also comes in a baya-
dere stripe In a contrasting color. 1t Is
said that these wear better than taffeta;
but whether they do or not. they have
prettier gloss and less stiffness. Colored
wash silks are shown again IN much the
same styles as last season. and they make
a very desirable waist for the money in
vested.
No doubt the white shirtwist will lead
the procession, because IL is so very de-
sirable from the laundry point OF view and
can be made so dainty, besides being al
ways in order with any kind OF skirt. n
very attractive variety Is shown in the
white linen waists decorated with an all

white linen floss are used very effectively
in the design. which in some Instances is
in separate sprays. The linen is In all

used for the entire waist with plain sleeves,

A friend Of the Inter Mountain asks
that a word be said in behalf OF the
great physicians and surgeons who nave
charge of the presidents case. and have
wrought under the guidance OF Provi-
dence such wonderful results. Beyond
doubt the American people owe them
debt of gratitude. The triumphs OF
modern science are almost beyond COM
prehension. It is believed that wound
similar to Garfeld's, if inflicted on
patient OF identical powers of resistance
need not now prove fatal. whereas ten
wears ago such a wound as Mckinley Is
now recovering from would In nearly
every case have ended in death. Such
is the rapid progress OF surgical science
in these days. When Garfield died the
X-ray. which might have located the
bullet, was not known, nor were other
appliances since discovered which might
possibly have saved the patients life.
The marvel in McKniley's case Is that
all appearance of irritation and inffam-
nation and all signs of blood poisoning
have been kept down by the attending
physicians.

NOT THE FUN HE EXPECTED
Husband Anticipated Great Fun When
Wife Was Away, But
Was Fooled,

Now, behold, there was a man who
said unto his wife:
Verify, it would be we'll for thee If
thou shouldst pack thy Saratoga trunk
and thy telescope and thy keester, and
HE thee unto the mountains.
Surely it will he sad for me to have
thee away from my side, but man, poor
man, hath to work, and it is meet that
his wife should escape the heat ana
bother Of life in the city when it is sum-
lner."
And SO his wife packed her trunks
and her telescope and keester and kissed
her husband good-by with many tears.
Now, the man laughed in the sleeve
of his garment and smiled in the inside
! of his face.
Saying unto himself:
Behold old man, you have worked it
all right. Verify. I will shake this old
town up so that it feeleth like unto a
| pepperbox.
Nov that the madam hath gone
| away. I will purchase large quantities
| of red paint and make this habitation
| of the people look like an Italian SUM-
set:

attic and sleep as long as I blame
please,
And my latchkey shall grow bright
! from much use at the witching hour of
3 g. M,
(Which meaneth o'clock, good morn
ing. ha. ha."
For he was a man who would crack
an old joke unto himself and laugh
heartily at the same.
Truly. there are many such in this
| why it is a sad old world.
i Now, when his wife was away the
man went down into the city and he
liquors are sold.
But he found not the jollity and hilar-
ity that he had imagined.
For the barkeeps knew him not, and
the rest of the people therein were busy
increasing the revenue and took not the
time to notice him.
i So he drank many settlers and walked
around the streets.
He went into the theater where the
gayly CARRIED ladies were singing:
l. I'VE are the merry, merry girls who
I.lure you from your homes"
Il And he looked upon the aforesaid
merry. merry girls and said unto him
self:
Behold, they could not lure man,
nor pull him away from his home with
a tugboat and a six-inch hawser."
And so it went for the course of a
week, and then he sat down and wrote
unto his wife, saying:
"Come home. For the dishes are scat
tered about the parlor and my hat hath
fallen into the bosom of the piano.

WEllINGTON'S DEPRAVlIy.

If there is one man in the United
States senate whose further presence
would be a reproach to that body and
whose expulsion would be amply just;-
fed. that man is Senator Wellington
Ever since his desertion of the party
which elected HIM senator he has been
a carping hypocrite and malicious dis
turber, having no sense of personal
honor or party fidelity and giving sole
attention to his imaginary persona:
grievances and desire for personal re-
venge. On last Friday, however, it was
left for Wellington to give the country
a fashlight photograph of his inner
self. When asked for an expression OF
opir.on on the subject of the president. $

''Ihe president is my personal enemy"
and declined to say more, thus giving
the reporter to understand that the

And his wife returned unto him, and
told HIM Of the splendid time she had
been having.
Also she gave him a gentle laugh be-
cause he had missed her.
Behold. blessings not only brighten

OXYGEN BANlSHEs BALD HEADS
New Cure Discovered in London Will
Bring Fuzz Where Fuzz Ought
To Be.

Since the bad boys were destroyed by
hears because they said unto the
Prophet, go up, thou bald head" the
slurs of a cruel world and the jokes of
merciless jokers have been directed day
after day lat the man without any hair
at the top. Among the most wicked OF
the jokers have been the doctors and
hair almost anywhere and to supply
even the cleanest and slickest OF all fly
walks of the front row with curly locks
sufficient to kill the prettiest young
women before the fcotlights.
The London Mail claims to have some
thing like glad t.dings of great JOY for
the baldheaded man, and for the dear.
ambitious wife who is SO ashamed OF
his hairless waste that she strives to
cover it over. morning after morning,
with surplus burnsides and unruly eye
brows. But let US hurry The Mail
says:
The use Of gas to make the hair grow
is one of the latest medical discoveries.
The gas employed is oxygen. A large
cap fits tightly round the head, and Is
supplied with oxygen from bag which
is slung over the patients shoulders. It
is worn for few hours every day, and
even in cases of absolute badness Is
said to produce more or less luxuriant
crop of hair.
The discovery was made at the Oxy-
gen hospital, Fitzroy square, an insti-
tuition of which the Princess Louise Is
patron. The gas is used for the cure OF
quite a number of diseases. A woman
was undergoing the oxygen cure Tor
skin disease, and one of her arms had
for many days been placed in light
air-tight box filled with the gas. 1t was
soon noticed that on that part of the
arm that was unaffected by the disease
the growth Of hair was much stimu-
lated, and this naturally suggested oxy-
gen as cure for badness.
The first experiment was made upon
woman who had completely lost her
hair. and 1t was found that after few
weeks treatment there was quite a
strong growth.
It is also announced that the oxygen
treatment is found to berefit weak eyes
and to cure consumption in a large per-
centage of cases, but these virtues may
be lightly passed over If it will really
restore even a fuzz upon the head of the
bald.
. Let us hope that the day may be
| speedily coming when the baldheaded
man may, instead Of paying over his
hard-earned savings to the hairless doc
| tor or barber for hair restorer that re-
fuses to restore. go about with his little
oxygen bag slung over his shoulder
adding to the gayety Of nations and
blissfully fostering the hope that never
dies.
! The world moves and many benefact-
crs are coming to the surface, but there
j can be none greater than the person
whether he uses gas or dynamite. who
is able to make thousand hairs grow
next years where there is this year never
a fur to be felt or found.-Dallas (Tex.,
