absorbs the heat from the wire coils
and prevents the wire from reaching
the fusing-point NJ. Guarini con-
cludes:
THE pressure of the air upon the re-
sistance coils revolving in it is almost
uniform at every point. When the fan
turns and a current of electricity is
passed through the coils, very lively
heat, an insupportable heat, issues
from the mouth of the casing. In the
experiments made before me Mr.. De
Mare allowed the revolving fan to at
tain a satisfactory speed before turn
ing the electric current through the
resistance-coils. The wire, which
while the fan was in motion glowed
but dimly, was, in fact, so thin that
the current employed-20 amperes-
would readily have caused it to melt

TOBACCO BLINDNESS.
Chief Trouble in This Disease Ii
Tracenble to the stomach a.
the Primary Source

A British oculist has called attention
to new and indirect method of treat
ing tobacco blindness, and notes the
extraordinary fact that TIA chief trou-
BILE in this disease is traceable to the
stomach as the primary source. Excess
siVe smoking, as is well known, causes
in many individuals partial and some
times total blindness. Tobacco blind
ness (and also the failure of vision
which comes from the excessive use
OF alcoholic beverages) Is remarkable
because of the absence of any change
in the structure of the eye itself
Microscopic examination in these
cases has disclosed peculiar alterations
In the ganglion cells of the retina, and
these changes were formerly believed
to have been produced by the poison
of the tobacco itself. Three years ago
Philadelphia physician published the
opinion that the alteration in the cells,
followed by failing vision. was not
produced by the nicotine itself, but by
poisons which the nicotine created in
the system. These secondary poisons,
finding their way to the eye, modified
the cells in the retina, this modiflca-
ton being followed by inadequate
power of vision or by loss of vision al
together
With this original suggestion for a
starting point, other observers took up
the investigation, with the result that
the seat Of the trouble has been To-
Gated This is found to lie in tho
stomach. Nicotine disturbs the nor
NAL function of the stomach, and in
stead of healthy digestion, the
smoker has veritable poison factory
ing the eye, therefore, the new method
goes at once to the stomach and at
tempts to stop the manufacture of
poisons in that important organ.
Several interesting cases are re-
ported of complete cures by this
method. One patient, an excessive
smoker, whose eyes were rapidly fail
ing, was treated for indigestion. The
stomach was pumped out and found to
contain evidences of gaStritis. The
mans diet was corrected, his tobacco
cut off, and other remedies of hy-
gienic kind were applied. In a few
weeks the blindness had disappeared.
These facts seem to clear up the
mystery attaching in general to to-
baeco blindness. Some men can smoke
to excess without impairing the eyes.
while others are affected in that way
by much smaller quantity of smok-
ing. This anomaly can be understood
when it is remembered that 1t is the
stomach and not the eyes upon which
the nicotine acts directly. Some stom-
achs can resist the poison-making
force Of the tobacco; others cannot,
and it is those whose stomachs =
affected by the use Of the weed that
suffer blindness Smokers should
therefore have an eye to their digestion.

four hundred at Mckay Hill colored

Something like eleven hundred pu-
