heart is due to the precipitation and i'm
mediate gelation Of the colloids it con-
tains, is electrical in character and is
controlled by chemical action governed
by associated bodily functions, which will
be quickly reduced TO formulae.
e Simplest of all, however said DR.. Loeb
in discussing the work of his colleague,
which he declared las taken the ground
from under his feet, is the explanation
it offers Of anaesthegia."
This is something which the discoveries
feel will at once attract the attention OF
physicians who might overlook the deeper
scientific mea ningssEIt is we'll known that
the influence Of anaeshtetics is directly
proportional to their liability to dissolve
fat. DR.: Mathews has shown now that If
the nerve can be kept from precipitation
there can be MO stimulus along it.
There is no easier way to do this than
by "thinning'' the solution in the nerve
just as housewife can thin gelatine and
prevent. it jellying. The anaesthetics,
carried through the lungs into the blood
and SO to the brain, there dissolve fur
Their the colloids in the highly sensitive
brain cells and make the solution more
stable. AS long as this condition prevails
no sensation can pass through a nerve.
Any positively charged iron will do this
as we'll as fat solvent, but ether is
easily administered in minute quantities,
works mildly and is quickly removed and
is, therefore, the best anaesthetic.
Similar to anaesthesia-in fact identi-
cal in part-is the phenomenon of drunk
enness. A man taking alcohol into his
stomach carries it thence through his
blood to his brain where, like ether, it
affects his brain cells, reducing his power
to send motor currents to his muscles 1t
may also perhaps eventually reach his
muscles and reduce their ability to con-
tract.
In this, too, Is seen quick and cor
rect explanation of the use of alcohol or
whisky as cure for snake bite. The eff
feet of the snake bite was shown by OAR
win to be immediate coagulation of the
nerve colloids. This is the manner il
causes death. But the effect of alcohol is
to dilute this substance, so If the alcohol
can reach the. nerve and brain cells in
time it will prevent the action Of the
snake poison.
These are but few of the more readily
! understood popular illustrations offered
by the scientific men of the working Of the
theory. 1t goes far deeper, however, than
these would indicate, and in the opinion
of the scientific men gathered here
brings the psychologist much, nearer, in
fact, very near, to the clearing up Of the
! my stery that has surrounded the phe-
nomena of life.
DR.. Loeb has in fact continued his ex-
periments looking to determine the true
ature Of death. He has concluded that ii
is not of cessation of action but a NOR.
| biological process, and in the case of the
/ sea urchin eggs in recent experiments
| has Indefinitely postponed death by the
! use of potassium cyanide solutions. He
| is now experimenting in connection with
! DR.. Mathews in the logical continuance
! Of this experiment.

CORPORATIONS IN OHIO
SUGGESTIONS FROM GOVERNOR
He Recommends Also a New Syste III
of Home Rule in Local
Taxes.

Columbus Ohio, Jan. 6.-The legislature
convened to-day in biennial session. Both
branches elected the officers nominated
at the republican caucuses. NotWithstand-
ing the talk of fusion with the minorities,
the Foraker candidates in the senate and
the Hanna candidates in the house were
elected with their respective full party
votes and there was no Indication of bolt
ing or even of disaffection.
The message of Governor Nash was
noted for it's recommendation of new
system Of taxation under which all taxes
for state purposes are to be raised from
corporations, franchises, the liquor traffic
ETC., and all direct taxation for county,
municipal or other purposes are to be
left to the counties. 1t is system OF
home rule in local taxes. Governor Nash
said about corporations:
Because they are created by the state and
possess certificates bearing the impress OF
her SEAL people are led to believe that they
are safer to do business with and are more
entitled to credit than are private partner
ships and individuals. In very many cases
they are less worthy Of confidence They are
authorized by the state to do business before
one dollar of capital stock has been paid
This is an unfortunate condition of affairs
The state, before she gives these corporations
her approval and permits them to do bust
ness, ought to require that all their capita
stock he paid in money and invested in the
business they propose to transact. We should
require these companies to make annual re
ports, showing how much Of the capital stool
has been paid, how the money is invested
what the assets are the amount of liabilities
and the names of the stockholders. There
should be such record Of every corporation
oil ft,,,1
whether it is worthy Of credit and confidence
The publicity which would be given by sucl
action could not by any possibility 1njur
a really worthy or sound corporation.
