SEE INTO THE LUNGS K-RAYs INVALUABLE AID IN
 FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.
By This Means Presence of the Dread Disease May Be Ascertained in Its lnelpleney and Its Progress
 Checked.

Most people nowadays have learned that successful warfare on the white scourge' consumption = depends mainly on an early and correct diag- nosis. As the lungs are invisible, ordinarily tuberculosis may not manifest it's presence with certainty until the disease Is too far advanced to be controlled by any means now known.
 Recently new hope has been given to victims of this dread disease by in- struments in the X-ray apparatus which make the'instrument capable of revealing to its operator the very earliest appearance of the germs of consumption.
 So accurate have been the results obtained that a careful X-ray examina- ton of the chest Is now the routine l treatment for all new lung cases, the symptoms of which give the slightest difficulty to the examining physicians In the receiving wards.
 The patient takes his place on bi- cycle seat fixed on pedestal. Close to his back, in a large black box which can be raised or lowered, or swung to one side or the other, by a delicate system of balancing weights, is the X-ray tube. All but a small area of its luminous surface is pro tected by a lead glass screen, so that only narrow stream of light falls on the patients back. When the patient Is in position the examiner puts on a pair of thick lead glass spectacles to protect his eyes, pulls over his hands large pair of lead impregnated gloves, and wheels into position be- tween himself and the patient thick lead screen four feet high.
 With a movement of his foot he touches 6 button and the room Is in absolute darkness. Then he waits ten minutes until his eyes get used to the darkness, for experience has taught that after the eyes have be- come thoroughly accustomed to the presence of white light the sensibility of the retina to the light of the huor- escent X-ray screen is increased from fifty to two hundred times.
 With another touch of the foot the X-ray current Is turned on and the bones and tissues of the patients chest are visible on the screen. The upper parts of the lungs, the points most likely to be attacked first by tu- berculosis, are then carefully studied. The patient Is told to empty his lungs of air by slowly exhaIing his breath. The lung tissues become more pervi- ous to the rays and the whole surface brightens in color.
 The failure of any portion of the lung to brighten evenly with the rest of the tissues shows some abnormality and strongly suggests deficient air entry to the part, one of the earliest signs of consumption.

Location of the Gland.

body, which include the typhoid and adrenolin glands and portion of the pancreas. The juices secreted by this gland, according to Chicago physi. clans, largely control the growth of the bones of the body. When the se- erection is plentiful the bones grow to an abnormal size, but when it is com paratively small in quantity the growth of the bones is retarded. When the secretion is caused to flow freely, say physicians, rapid development of the bones Is the result. Thus, when a boy or girl is i'll for some time with a fever, the diseased condition of the body causes the pituitary gland to be- come unusually active, with the result that the sick person grows like a weed"

CONTEMPORARIES
Building Where Sat the First
 Senate and House.
Congress Hall, Philadelphia, as 1t Is Today and as 1t Was in 17eo- Where Washington Was
 Inauqurated.

Philadelphia, Pa.-After 16 years c work, the Philadelphia city govern ment has finally appropriated $6O.O0t for the restoration of Congress hall located at Sixth and Chestnut streets, and for the erection of memorial lamps in Independence square.
 The first of the more recent attempts to restore the historic structure was made in 1893 by the Colonial Danes, who spent a great deal of time and considerable money to place the old senate chamber in the hall in approxi- mately the same condition 1t was in century before The work was com pleted and a reception held to com memorate the work in 1896. And that ended all work on the old building for another decade.
 About eight or nine years ago an- other piece of restoration was under taken. The entrance on Sixth street was bricked up to make the exterior of the building coincide with it's earlier design. This patriotic work was not without it's comic aspect, for in brick ing up the entrance the stairway lead ing to the restored senate chamber was cut of and since 1902 access to the historic chamber has been barred to all.
 Since that time there has been a continual hue and cry to have the old building restored to it's pristine condi- tion as far as possible and commit

Farm Residence Burned

The old Stanfeld residence, at
forwards owned by P, ]. Eie on
his farm about a mile east Of Gull
bertson, was burned TO the ground
about 10 o'clock Sunday morning.
As no one was living IN the house
at the time the fire was either OF
incendiary origin or was caused by
the carelessness Of tramps who
might have sought shelter there
during the night. The Willough-
by's, who were working the farm
are living on the Oscar Hage place
about a mile distant. saw the
smoke very shortly after the fire
started. They Immediately went
to the burning building. The fire
was in the northeast corner OF the
kitchen and they could not deter
mine whether it originated outside
or inside the building. As this
corner was furthest from the wind
the fire had not gained a very
great Roadway when they arrived,
but as the pump was broken and
no water on the premises they were
powerless to extinquish the blaze.
However they saved some OF the
doors. The place We understand
still belongs to p. ]. Eie, although
it was reported sold some three
years ago.
