heat, watering is of little use, while
obvious disadvantages attach to the
unitarian American method of using
petroleum for laying dust. A local
doctor has, however, been experiment.
ing with an application of coal tar to
the road surface. and the result has
surpassed expectations. The surface
becomes SO hard and compact that it
is difficult to break up, no dust is
formed, rain fails to penetrate the lay
er OF tar, and even after forty days
subsection to traffic there is no sign OF
wear and tear. Now the municipal
authorities and the hotel keepers are
taking the matter up, and the result of
their labors should not be without in
terest to municipalities at home.

Adm THE USE OF X RAYS.
Paraffin Shield Found to Prevent
Burning of the Skin.

DR.. j. Mount Bleyer of New York
announces a discovery regarding the
use of Y rays that does away with the
injurious effects of prolonged appli-
cation of the rays. He has found, ac-
cording to the New York Tribune, that
a paraftin coating one-eighth of an
inch in thickness which is applied to
that part of the person on which the
rays are directed prevents burns. Pro
longed application Of the \ rays, such
as is necessary in treatment of cancer
and tuberculosis. has been found to re-
suit in so called virulent burns. Be
cause these burns do not develop till
several days after the application it
has been a theory that they are due to
secondary infection and that the rays
drive dust floating in the al" into the
skin of the patient. These particles
carry tnoculatiOn.
Acting on this theory, DR.. Bleyer, by
experiment, found that parattin would
catch and hold the virulent particles
which were carried by the X rays.
Various other efforts have been made
to prevent irritation from the atmOs-
pheric impact produced by the ROnt-
gen discharge. An aluminium screen
has been often employed, But the dis
advantage of this and similar devices
is that screen Of such material rObs
the rays of three-fourths of their eff
cheney. The paratfin coating permits
the uninterrupted current, but stops
the flow of allen particles.
