The important Functions Of This Wa.
terry Secretion.
The perspiration is watery Sc.
erection of certain curiously coiled
glands in the skin. It used to be
thought that it served useful pur-
pose in removing waste matters
from the system, and there is no
doubt that it does so in a measure,
but it cannot compare in this re
spect with the secretion of the kid
neys. Indeed it is ninety-eight and
eight-tenths parts water, and the
solid part is chiefly chloride of So
dunn, which gives it the well known
salty taste. Its function is to mois-
ten the superficial layer of cells in
the skin and SO facilitate their re-
moval. But its chief use is believ-
ed to be to regulate the tempera-
ture of the body and prevent, by
evaporation, excessive and danger
Gus heat.
The quantity secreted depends
much upon the temperature of the
air, exercise and the amount of fluid
drunk. But it averages between
thirty and forty ounces a day.
1t varies in inverse proportion to
the secretion of the kidneys. The
secretion is constant summer and
winter, day and night, but ordinari-
ly evaporation keeps pace with it,
and it does not appear as moisture
on the skin. This is called the in
sensible perspiration, while that
visible as water is called the sensi.
BILE perspiration.
1t is decreased in amount in GER
tain diseases, such as diabetes, in
which the kidney secretion is enor-
mously increased, and in ichthyosis,
a dry, scaly disease of the skin.
Increased perspiration may be
purely nervous in origin, as seen in
the beads on the forehead of one
who is embarrassed, or the cold
sweat Of fear or some other power
full emotion. In some cases the in
creased perspIation is localized in
the hands and feet. If this is an
expression of general weakness, ton
les and good food may correct the
condition, but usually local treat
ment is called for. Immersing the
palms of the hands or the soles of
the feet in water as hot as it can be
borne for about five minutes and
then, after drying, busting them
with very finely powdered boric
acid is often of great service.
The moist hand may be kept dry
by frequent application to the
palms of a saturated solution of
boric acid in cologne water.
The perspiration that occurs at
night in consumption and other dis
eases, accompanied with hectic f.
yer, is often very distressing. The
quantity of water exuded is some
times enormous, soaking not only
night clothes, but the entire bedding
and mattress. If the patients con-
dition will permit, a hot bath of
four or five minutes duration at
bedtime will sometimes prevent or
lessen night sweats. If this is not
permissible, sponging with hot vine
gar and water may be tried. A glass
of milk and half dozen crackers
taken at midnight will also OCCASION
ally be found useful. - Youths

THE AERATION OF

by j. w. Lawrence. PROFESSOR
Mechanical Engineering,
Colorado.

The aeration OF water for drinking
purposes Is not new. but Is becoming
more general In various parts OF the
United states.
The aeration OF water prevents
stagnatlon. removes disagreeable odors
arising from the decomposition Of
vegetable matter. and checks the
growth OF algae There is disagree
ment as 10 how much oxidation OF or.

water, and the greater the amount OF
