BOAT ON DRY LAND.

Practically a steamboat and steam

thrown in gear to drive the paddle
wheels or twin screws. according to
which Of the two the boat Is equipped
with. or drive a cable drum which
holds a mile of five-eighths inch steel
cable used for warping and crossing
portages.
At the end Of water journey the
cable is carried to a tree some distance
inland and at one side of the path des-
ignated for the boat to pass over.
Passed through n pulley block it is
carried back to the boat and run
through pulley block at the bow.
Then returned inland again it is fas-
tened to a tree on the other side of the
path and just opposite the first tree,
thus making it possible for the boat to
travel straight course without dOdg-
ing the anchor trees. The engine Is
geared to the cable drum. and the cum
bersome but powerful craft commences
its rock strewn journey.
No roadway is required. logs and
skids being thrown a few feet apart

NEW CONSUMPTION CURE.
Scientist Advocates Flesh Of Tubercu.
lous Cattle For Food,

lous Cattle For Food.
A new way of curing and obtaining
immunity from tuberculosis by eating
the raw flesh of animals already af-
fected with bovine tuberculosis has
been discovered. according to DIR. f.
W. Forbes Ross. at one time clinical
| assistant Of the North London con-
sumption hospital and civil surgeon to
his majesty's guards hospital.
DR.. Ross has written an article on
the subject which appeared in the
Medical Record and which, the editor
Of the Record says, is entitled to ire
spectful attention" The doctors theo-
ry is as follows:
ITO deliberately and willfully pro-
cure and use as an article Of diet for
tuberculous persons the raw flesh
(beef) Of animals known to he affected
with tuberculosis with view to bring
ing about urtificially that which firm
ly believe occurs unobserved In nature
and in actual daily life among healthy
persons"
According to the theory which the
doctor advances in favor Of this novel
treatment. the lean raw flesh of such
animals Us he mentions contains in it
an antitoXin generated in the blood
which is capable Of assisting tubercu-
lous patients in their fight against the
disease.
TO begin with, the doctor indorses
the theory of Professor Koch Of Berlin
that bovine Tuberculosis is not trans
missible to human beings through the
eating Of flesh. He then goes further
and brings out instances which tend to
prove that the eating Of the affected
meat is Of decided benefit. He says
Those who habitually partake of
meat in fair quantities. athletes. and
particularly those who are In the habit
of eating beef partly cooked and raw
are not those who are commonly
found with tuberculosis. either in hos
pitfalls, in private homes or in sanitorla.
In England. where infants and young
children are habitually fed on cows
milk. we find that during the milk
feeding period of life the tendency to
tuberculosis infection is very high.
Further Investigation shows that
the children Of the poor are more liza
bic than the children of the rich. Why
Is this! Because the children of the
rich and the better off among the ado
and more often than the children of
the poor and the poorer adolescents
and adults"
