Aviation in Japan.

Although the art of making kites has
been cultivated in Japan from time I'M
memorial. and tho man-lifting kite, the
precursor of the modern aeroplane, was,
according to tradition, utilized by q ban
ished daimio to- send message to his
vassals in the year 1i56, Japan has been
slow in taking a share In the great re-
cent Development of aviation as well as
of other branches of aeronautics.
Two years ago, however,. the Japanese
Government sent two army officers to
Europe to study aviation. viz, Captain
Hino to Germany and Captain Tokugawa
to France. These officers besides making
themselves proficient in the art of flying
purchased on behalf of their government
a number of aeroplaues of various makes.
Bleriot. Wright, Farfnan, and have now
returned to Japan where they are giving
instruction to a number of other officers.
For the purpose OF these lessons, the Cow
|ernment has established a large aviation
field about two hours journey by rail-
way from Toxic.
The Government has also organized an
official society for the study of aviation.
Tits members all being Government EN-
ployees, including military and naval Of
ficers and professors IN the imperial uni-
lversity. A grant of $S75,000 has recently
/, been voted to this organization.
The Japanese are not entirely depend
emit upon foreigners for their flying ma
chimes. Captain Hino, Dr. Narahara,
, Captain Isobe of the navy, Messrs. Mo-
rita and Tsutsuki and Baron Iga have
devised various forms of aeroplane.
Each of the important newspapers OF
Toxic now has department devoted TO
aeronauties. The Hochi Shimbun. the
leading paper of the city, has engaged
the services of Messrs. Takata and
Inouye as aviation editors and the
~Asahi Shimbun has a similar functionary
in the person of Mr.. Usui. The semi
official journal Kokumin has offered n
prize of $500 for flight over the bay OF

RADIuM AS MEDICINE, ss
Therapeutic Use of This Latest Dis.
covery and Its Satisfactory Results.

1T is not merely the treatment Of
diseases of the skin and In the case of
cancerous humors that radiufn gives
good results. Excellent effects are
also produced; in affections of the
nervous system and particularly in
cases of neuralgia. Although Instances
of cure or amelioration are rare as yet,
still they suffice to form definite
opinion of the future of this thera-
peutic agent.
| In 1904 DIR. Darier of Paris COMMUNE
Gated to the Academic de Medicine a
report of a case of recent facial
neuralgia cured in a few days ana
another of orbital neuralgia cured by
applications of radiuIn after they had
resisted every other treatment for six
months. 50
Drs. Raymond and { Zimmern of
Paris, by the application of a glass
tube containing seven centigrammes
lof radium bromide. effected the disap-
pearance of pains round the waist
shooting pains and gastric crises In
tabetic patients. that is, in those un-'
able to walk owing to the lack of CO.
ordination in the movements OF the
lower limbs. sssbss
In Italy DIR. Bongiovan,ts published
in 1907 reports of two cases of facial
paralysis successfully treated by the
application of radium varnish. one IN
seven days, the other In To- Three
cases of sub-orbital neuralgia with
violent and frequent crises, attributed
to anaemia, and one case OF SUB
orbital neuralgia with daily crises due
to malariaI infection, treated In the
same manner, were cured in few
seances five to nine), lasting about
half an hour each.
Doubtless, says DIR. Darier in the
'Clinique OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, the clint
cal facts are not sufficiently numerous
and the method is not definite enough
to enable final conclusions to be drawn
But the therapeutic value OF radfam
as an analgesic agent in cases of neu-
ralgia is clearly proved by positive
facts, which cannot be attributed to
suggestion. It is capable of rendering
great service in orbital neuralgias but
unfortunately this action at present
appears inconsistent. Radium has also
been efficacious in several cases OF
facial paralysis. 80 sss ssH
1t may reasonably be suggested that
the ensemble of these results would
have been more favorable still WITH a
superior technique, that is to- say. with
a better regulated mode of application.

French Baptist
Mission Work
In Waterville

The following sketch of the French
Baptist Mission in Waterville, Maine,
has been written by the Rev. Isaac
LaF'leur pastor of the Mission, at
the special request of the Kennebec
Journal and includes the story of a
NEW vestry which was built in 1910.
The pastor, in behalf of his devoted
people, heartily complies with the re-
quest, as we owe it to those who have
made our work possible and success
|ful.
How the Work Started.
In the early part of the 18th CEN
tury." said the late Rev. Theodore
La F1eur, d. D., Henri Olivier and his
beloved wife came from Switzerland
to Canada as missionaries to the In
dams. Having arrived in the autumn
of 1884 in Montreal. p. O., they soon
decided to devote all their time and
powers to the evangelization of the
French Canadians. whose language
they spoke from infancy. The year
following, 1895, brought two more mis-
sionaries from that beautiful land
which is called the garden of Europe,
namely: Louis Roussy and Madame
Henriette Feller,'' founders/of the La
Grande Ligne,' one of the most sue
cessful mission schools in North
America
e. From the Feller Institute several
| thousand French Professionals have
graduated occupying positions of trust
in the professional and commercial
life. From it graduated two mis-
sionaries who have distinguished
themselves in the founding of more
than a score of French Baptist mis-
Esions in New England, that of Water
willie. Maine, in particular. Both OF
the gentlemen are still living aud
somewhat active in the ministry Rev

Maine, who has been quite active and
| busy about the Lords work, both he
and his beautiful wife are devoted
| disciples of the Christ. The same
lyear in which the F'eller institute
was founded, similar movement was
made here in Wateryille, Maine. A

keep cars running although not on
