OELlRlUM TREMENS.
Case and SyE:pso-as of Dreadful
Disease From Alcohol


The conclusive symptom of chronic
inebriety is delirium tremens. THE hor-
rors.'' says Mr.. Hilburn. None but the
| true inebriate gets il. and most inebri-
ates get il sooner or later though some
escape the actual delirium that is its
/ typical feature It must not be con-
1 fused with alcoholic insanity. the vio-
/ lent dementia brought on IN some per-
sons by amounts of alcohol often toe
small to cause intoxication. True de-
liriurl tremens is literally the result
of soaking. 1t comes on when the It's
sues are saturated with alcohol Usu-
\ ally il appears at the end of a long
! spree. or. in the case of Il steady drink
er. when lie has been taking more than
his usual allowance. But as alcohol re-
mains in the tissues from three TO eight
days, the delirium may develop some
time after tie spree. whereupon the
victim usually ascribes it to the fact
that he gave UP alcohol and took to
water. 1t is state of tPllapse. insom-
MIA. trembling. acute terror and usu-
ally violent delirium, which lasts from
two to five days. .'Menagerie deliri-
um," the vision of violet mice and iri-
descent snakes, generally supposed TO
prevail. is not very common, snakes
being rarer than other animals
The ordinary delirium centers aboutA
the usual occupation of the patient. Its
violence can be judged by the degree
TO which his visions are independent
OF his will, and by the terror they
cause him. A teamster, for instance,
usually drives horses in his delirium
If they obey him he will get well, but
If they back against his orders or bolt
he is thrown into a state of extreme
terror and is pretty certain to die. The
decisions of first attack are always
terrifying. but in later occurrences the
experienced drinker is often aware of |
his condition aud watches his own hal
fluctuations with a sort of impersonal
amusement. The supposedly harmless
malt liquors are slower in bringing on
delirium tremens than whisky, but
usually bring on uglier attacks. Con
trary to general opinion they are re-
Sponsible for a considerable share of |
the inebriety of this country. Some |
years ago DIR. Charles L. Dana at that |
time visiting physician to Bellevue |
hospital, recorded the form of liquor |
used by nearly 200 inebriate patients |
A third drank whisky, nearly a third /
beer and whisky and a quarter malt |
liquors altogether. The rest took any /
thing that contained alcohol. There are |
virtually no wine drinking inebriates /
in this country Magazine.

RADIOACTIVE SUBSTANCE.
Experiments Which Indicate That 1t
Is Much More Plentiful Than
Was Supposed.

In a recent contribution to the Philo-
sophical Magazine. Mr. A. S. Eve makes
some rather startling suggestions. He
has speculated as TO the possible amount
of radioactive substances in the earth
Starting with simple experiment to de-
termine the ioniZation of the air. data
are obtained which are used as a founda-
tion for his argument. From his expert
ment he computes that if the ionization
of the air has an average value equal to
that which he found that this CORE
spends to an activity which would be
produced by one-half gramme of radium
per cubic kilometer of the atmosphere.
Upon the further assumption that this
ionization value is an average for the
world, it is computed that to produce
this activity of the layer of air surround
ing the earth. one kilometer thick.
would require at least 600 tons of radium
bromide. Next, following the sugges-
tion that the increase in temperature OF
earth as the center is approached is due
to radium. and assuming that the salts
of this element are uniformly distrib-
uted, this 600 tons of radium would be
contained in layer of the earth only
few meters thick. The result thus
reached indicates the possibility of
radioactive substances being much
more abundant than heretofore sup
posed, and suggests the further possi-
bility that radioactive phenomena may
play an important part in the life of the
organic world.-Electrical Review.
