AN OLD COLD
Is Catarrh. and Catarrh Leads
to Consumption.

The tendency of catarrh of the head
is to pass downward through the bron-
chial tubes to the lungs. Any one who
has had catarrh of the head for year or
more finds the disease gradually pro-
crossing downward. In some cases the
progress is rapid, and in other cases it is
slow; but sooner or later if catarrh is
allowed to run, it VIII go to the lungs
and set up the disease known as con-
sumption. Tits doubtful if consumption
is ever caused by anything except ca
tarrh.
The catarrh usually begins as n cold in
the head or throat, and is neglected until
it becomes chronic; then it begins to
dawn on the victim that he has catarrh.
Unless he is very foolish indeed he will
not rest easy until the catarrh is entirely
cured. Thousands pay no attention to
it until it is too late.

ELECTRICITY FOR
CONSUMPTION

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Experiments
are being made on a most elaborate
scale in London, with a modification OF
Tesla's high frequency electrical cur
rents, in the treatment of consumption
1t is stated that some remarkable re-
suits have been achieved says the Lon
don correspondent Of the Herald.
These experiments. for the most part
have been conducted by DIR. Z. j. Box
enham, an eminent West End surgeon
in the course of his private practice
but with the knowledge and approval
of leading consumption specialists. For
various reasons, but principally be
cause of evil results which might ensue
If the system were used by any but the
most experienced medical men, with a
perfect knowledge of the forces they
were dealing with, the experiments
have been quietly conducted. Applica-
tions for details of the methods used
have not been encouraged. DR.. Boken-
ham has had fitted up a most elaborate
apparatus for the production of cleo
tricity in the particular form in which
1t Is used, the net result of which is
that current OF 10000 volts is produce
ed, Of such high frequency and admin
istered In such small quantities that
the consumptive patient may receive it
without the slightest injury. The awe
inspiring force of this voltage may be
best appreciated when it is remember
ed that only 500 volts are employed for
driving trains on a railway. Yet the
patient is not conscious of the enor-
nous electrical pressure.
DR. Bokenham's experience is that In
very bad cases of consumption the
cough has been greatly reduced. night
sweats have disappeared, the appetite
has improved and there has been a
great gain in weight and general
health. So that even If the consump-
tion bacilli have not been destroyed. it
Is certain that their virulence has been
much decreased; that they have been
brought under control and that the pa
tient has felt cured. \ doubt enter
tanned by phthisis specialists, who do
not question this temporary improve
mont, is whether it is anything but a
mere eXhilaration. Dir. Bohemian,
