Salt as a Cure For Pneumonia.
(Chicago Record-HeraId)

The great value of salt as an antiseptic
and the fact that nature appears TO have
made il an essential ingredient in the food
of nearly all animals have made the med
zeal profession very hospitable toward
new theories or discoveries regarding its
therapeutic qualities. The doctors, in
fact. are never unprepared for the an
nouncement of some extraordinary cure
effected by the use of this widely distrib-
uted compound.
That pneumonia can be cured by pump
ing an s per cent sodium chloride solution
at temperatures ranging from 100 to 130
degrees Fahrenheit into the lungs, how
ever. naturally taxes the credibility of
most physicians. This achievement was
announced by DR.. w. Byron CoakIey of
this city in a paper read by him before
the American Medical association at the
recent convention at Saratoga That such
saline solution would be death to all
ba cteTia, and would also have an anti
septic effect upon diseased tissues will be
readily conceded 1t is a question of get
ting the solution into the lungs in such a
way that the patient could stand the
treatment
