WHAT CAUSES THE BENDS.

Frenchmnn Discovers How the Gals.
son Disease Originates.
The worI OF constructing several tun-
nels under rivers, requiring the use Of
caissons or lair locks" has caused a
relatively rare disease to become COM
mon in New York and the subject Of
some general Interest The bends"
as this mslady is called by workmen,
vas frA observed among pearl divers,
but It was a considerable time before
the peculiar condition, and then it was
by an accident that the discovery was
made.
A French Investigator in physiology,
NJ. Bert, while studying the effects Of
increases In air pressure on animals,
had the good fortune TO have his appar-
atus explode. The dog In the glass bell
OF the compression pump died lmmedi-
ately. The idea occurred to Bert that
perhaps he had simulated in this scci-
dent the conditions which cause csisson
disease and he set to work to find out
Of what his dog had so suddenly died.
The only abnsrmal condition Bert
could find was the presence Of bubbles
OF air In the heart and that this was
an adequate cause for death had been
known since the time of Galen. A care
full repetition of Bert's experiment has
shown that the conditions he found are
almost always present when death re-
suits from sudden decomposition.
Studies made by medical men have
confirmed Bert's theory IN IT'S applica-
zion to man. Under ordinary conditions
q certain amount OF air Is dissolved In
the blood. II the external air pressure
be increased, as It Is IN compassion
lock, to two or three times atmospheric
pressure the result Is that a much
larger quantity Of air goes into solution
with the blood. Then IL decomposition
(the return to normal atmospheric
prcssure) Is quick the dissolved air
escapes as bubbles into the circulation
and much harm results 10 the individ-
nal, in that these air bubbles act as
foreign bodies In the blood vessels and
obstruct the flow Of the blood. At times
the escape of the dissolved air from Its
state of solution In the blood Is 80 vye-
lent that It rupturcs blood vessel

Russia's Great Library.

One Of the proudest monuments to
the memory Of that benevolent despot,
Peter the Great, is the imperial library
Of Russia, established by him in TIA.
Present ranking places it third among
the worlds great libraries, preceded
only by by the National library at
Paris and that of the British museum
at London. 1t contains million and
a half volumes and $4,000 manuscripts.
The most important accession it ever
received was probably at the time. OF
the suppression of the Society Of Jesus
in Russia, when most Of the Jesuit
collections were transferred to the inn
perial library. Among them was the
famous collection Of Count Zaluski,
consisting Of 100000 volumes and 1O,-
600 manuscripts, which had been in
stalled at the Jesuit college in Warsaw.
The most important manuscript in the
library is the "CodeX Sinaiticus" Of the
Greek Bible, brought to Russia by Prof.
Tischendorf in 1859 from the Convent
Of st. Catharine on Mount Sinai-New

last year, with new men rapidly taking
their places, and the general public using
gent supplies of ice, the striking drivers
of New York City gave In and returned

the strike was brought on by the leaders
Of the union, and was not popular with

Fire Burning One Hundred Years.

The Chequers Inn, Osmotherley, is
relic Of the old coaching days but it is
now famed for. its fire, which has new
er been out for more than 100 years
and over which griddle cakes are
baked.
This huge FIRE Is kept continually
burning by peat or turf from the York
shire moors. An excellent tea Is pro-
vided for visitors, the chief dainty
being the griddle cakes. The peat
glows like red embers on red tiled
floor, the griddle being suspended from
a bar above, the whole looking most
quaint and picturesque. The exterior
Of the Inn Is most unpretentious and
Old World looking, as it nestles alone
on the Yorkshire wolds.
