ScOFF At OXYGEN FAD.
Doctors Here Say the Effect is Only
That Of Fresh Air.

Physicians in this city said yester.
day that there was not much likeii.
hood that oxygen would be added to
the list of stimulants from the evil eff.
fects of which they shall need to re-
lease their patients. They read with
interest the special cable dispatch
from London to the New York Times.
in which it was said that the latest
fad in England was to inhale oxygen,
but thought that the writer who de.
clared that fifteen gallons of the gas
had made him more inclined to wres-
tie than to write was drawing on his
Imagination.
Il don't see how the effect could
possibly last one hour" said DIR. John
Van DOren Young after he had read
the dispatch. The effect of oxygen
is entirely evanescent 1t is not like
that of drug, which may be felt for
long time after it has been taken.
That is one of our difficulties in adj
ministering it. 1t is necessary to go
on giving it or its value ceases"
What effect would it produce on
the body?" the doctor asked.
1T would have very much the same
effect as a breath of pure air. If
man goes down to the seaside or up
mountain he will find himself exhil-
arated. came down last night from
Boston by boat. and as soon as I
breathed the pure air of the Sound
this morning l felt myself braced up.
That's about all taking a dose of OK
ygen from tank would do.
Its very useful in hospital prac.
tice. When a patient is suffering
from pneumonia, Bright's disease or
heart trouble. we administer it to him
If we cannot use the open-air treat
ment. Especially on a muggy day
when the air seems heavy it helps
along.
"Of course it affects. the heart a lit.
tie. The oxygen, when it is breathed
in, comes into contact with the mu.
cous membrane of the bronchial reg
ion and has its impurities taken away,
to be breathed out again. From the
mucous membrane it is brought in
contact with the red corpuscles of the
blood, and through them stimulates
the heart. l have taken it from time
to time when / have been giving it
to patient to test it's purity. but
have never noticed that it produced
any marked effect upon me."-New
York Times.

Ruskin's Long Sentences.

Ruskin. it is said. has written more
sentences of inordinate length than
any other classic writer of modern
English prose. Frederic Harrison
some years ago counted the words in
a number of typical sentences, find
ing that in the earlier books it was
no uncommon thing for Ruskin to run
beyond the page before permitting
himself and his readers the relief of
full stop. But in every case the
sense is as clear as day. Words
worth's poem on the Character of
Happy Warriors is a notable example
of sustained connections. Apart from
the opening and closing couplets, the
poem consists of two very long com
pound sentences almost entirely com
prised Of adjectival clauses. The long
er of the two sentences contains &;
decasyllabic- lines. This is probably
record in English verse.-Dundee
