ing Muscular Work and After.
A recent publication of the Univer-
sity of Michigan describes an instru-
ment for securing a continuous gra-
phic record Of the pulse rate in man
which afford valuable indications Of
the hearts work. The records showed
that the commencement Of muscular
work is followed almost Simultaneous
ly by marked acceleration OF the
pulse. In fact, this modification OF the
pulse rate is observed in the next
heart cycle after the work begins.
In typical cases there are three we'll
marked stages-a primary rise. a
period Of sustained acceleration and a
secondary rise. Similar stages Of de-
crease in rate occur after the work
stops. The rapidity of the pulse dur
ing work depends not only upon the
amount Of work done, but much more
upon the manner in which it Is done.
Speed and resistance are factors re-
quiring separate consideration and OF
these two speed has the greater in.
fuence.
These records show that while mus
cular work may not appreciably re.
quire the expenditure Of bodily force
it Immediately reacts upon the heart
and that conversely cessation Of mus
cular exertion Is an immediate relief
to the heart.

Gas For Lighting Formerly Confined to

The satisfactory lighting of suburban
and country homes requires that the
means used shall be convenient, safe,
economical and furnish brilliant, pen-
etrating. effulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are not
the characteristics Of the candle or
kerosene lamp. which, formerly. were
the only feasible means Of producing
light for domestic use in the rural dis
tricts.
For generations there was a crying
need, a yearning for something better.
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverance came in the shape OF
the chemical compound, Calcium Car
bide. from which. by the simple appli-
cation Of water. the gas Acetylene is
derived. Acetylene meets all the re-
quirements fully and admirably and IS
being generally used.
Common lime and carbon in the form
of coke or coal are the raw materials
which, fused in an intensely heated
furnace. make Calcium Carbide, and
there is no difficulty in obtaining it in
any part of the country.
The machine into which the Calcium
Carbide is fed and from which the
Acetylene is distributed through the
building to be lighted. is but little larg-
er than n thirty-Sallon milk can. ana

and cheaply installed. either in the c9
lar Or in an outbuilding.
The light from burning Acetylene IS
exquisite. and lighting experts agree
that it surpasses all other known illu-
minants. 1t does not taint the air nor
strain the eyes. and is not objection
able in any respect. Every up-to-date
rural residence should be equipped
with Acetylene light.

Lived a dusky Indian princess
Fair as fairest flower 10 see.
By Columbia's laundering cascades.
Der the beauteous upland plain,
Wandered lone the fair Wal-lu-lah
Chanting eer some wild refrain.
Dusky suitors thronged about her,
pleaded for Wal-lu-lah's hand,
But she wept her absent lover
Pointed to yon westward strand
By Columbia's murmuring cascades,
Long and lone her tireless quest
Now she sleeps. but still awaits him,
With her face toward the west.
Drifting sands above her mingle.
Happy homes bedeck her plain.
Still her spirit sings and murmurs
In Columbia's Wild refrain.

MENINGITIS RAVAGES
ALARMING DEATH RATE IN GREAT
 FIR NEW YORK.
Seventeen Deaths In One Day Reported --science strenuousIy Endeav- bring to Cheek the
 Disease.

New York, April 6.--Seventeen deaths from cerebro spinal meningitis were reported during Thursday in Greater New York, making a total for the week thus far of eighty-two. An av- craze of twenty-five developing cases have been reported daily,
 A new treatment is being tried at Bellevue Hospital. It consists of draw ing off the fluid from the spinal canal. This Is being done every other day and greatly relieves the patient By the use of ice bags they are then kept in kood condition and with itftlo pain.
 .'The only question is," said one of the staff at the hospital. whether we are getting all the discharge from the canal. We are not able to tell because there is no X-Ray strong enough to de- termine whether the fluid is clogged Tn the brain. It is believed that in the advanced cases 1t does clog up.
 This treatment reduces the temper ature almost to normal, thus affording us an excellent opportunity for work ing. We have found no drugs that will have any salutary effect upon the dis ease.
 Tt is interesting to note that the meningococci of the bacilli of spinal meningitis, are so similar to the germs of another disease that 1t is dificult to tell the two apart. The meningococci have the appearance coffee bean would have if 1t were split in the mid de and opened out so that the two hemispheres would form a circle. We have found nothing yet with which to kill the germ.
 At Bellevue is a 6-year-old lad taken there three weeks ago. An eminent rn,hn ta afuAVln0 a0 trephined the boys skull and drew of the fluid which caused the trouble. The patient is still living and shows tm- provement.
 In their investigation of the causes of the epidemic. members of the com mission appointed by the Board Of Health have turned their attention to animals The close analogy of often incurable distemper peculiar to dogs has suggested a new field of inquiry. Stray cats and dogs are now under susnicion,
