NO Use For RADIUM.

INFORMATION comes from Berlin
that the great German specialists
have abandoned the use of radium
for the treatment Of cancer. SO an
other of the announced "cures" Is
laid aside after a long period OF ex-
pertinent upon human beings. How
many hopes have been blasted, how
many lives sacrificed since radium
was announced as the cure for this
obscure disease no one can estimate.
1t has in some cases seemed to effect
a cure, but these cases have been ex-
ternal and in the early stage OF the
disease, when the same end could
have been accomplished by surgical
operation. How permanent such cures
are it is too early to say, but it Is
to be hoped that the disease has
been baffled in every such case. The
German surgeons say that such ap-
parent cures are more apparent than
real, as in many cases the disease
makes it's appearance again in some
other part of the body. The conclu-
sion would be, therefore, that can
Ger is a blood disease and must be
fought through the blood. The Ger
man surgeons have turned from
radium back to the use of Roentgen
rays, and believe they have better
results from this treatment. These
rays have a deeper penetration and
disintegrating effect upon the
tissues of the body. After this dis
integration the healing properties Of
the blood effect the cure. This would
seem to be another proof that the
cure must be ultimately sought
through the blood.

OLD sOL-FAMILY PHYSICIAN.

FHERE has been a very general
belief since ancient times In the
curative power of sunshine. But
until recently this was rather a
vague impression than a fact that
could be demonstrated practically,
and could not be explained theoreti-
cally. At the present time, however,
the suns curative power Is being
dem monstrated every day, and this
power can now be explained on theo-
retical grounds. Certain forms Of
tuberculosis, running sores, and
"even the hunchback characteristic
Of Potts disease" frequently yield
to the sun-ray treatment-properly
applied. For, curiously enough, there
is a proper dosage Of sunshine just
as there Is with remedies that come
in pasteboard boxes or bottles.
The specific element responsible
for the curative effect is the ultra
violet ray, which is relative Of the
X-ray, and one Of the younger mem
bers of the prolific ray family. This
ray may be manufactured expensive
ly with man-made machinery, but is
supplied free by the suns direct
radiations.
The Swiss scientist, DR.. Roller,
has recently reported 951 complete
cures out of 1,100 cases Of surgical
tuberculosis treated at Leysin, Switz-
erland; and still more recently DR..
Louis Camous has recorded a large
number of cures by heliotherapy on
thee Mediterranean coast. And ex-
periments that are being carried on
at the present time demonstrate that
this form Of treatment may be used
anywhere, regardless Of altitude or
climate.
An example Of the kinds Of condi-
tons treated, and the method Of
treating them. is shown by a report
of one Of M. Corneloup's cases of
tubercular peritonitis, which is a
condition peculiarly resistant to ordi-
nary therapeutic measures. The
patient in this instance was girl of
20 in such an advanced stage Of dis
ease that she was incapable Of the
slightest exertion. The treatment
consisted In placing her in a reclin-
ing chair for one hour in the morn.
ing and again in the afternoon with
the abdomen exposed, the other parts
Of the body and the face being pro-
tected from the sunlight by clothing
and a screen. improvement in her
condition was apparent at once, and
in four months time she was COM
pletely cured. Yet hitherto her dis
ease had resisted all treatment.
In giving these sun-ray treatments
it Is found that many patients are
unable to bear more than ten-minute

Inventions and Appliances
NEW INVENTIONS.
n an for Draining Dishes-This pa

- an Tor Draining Dishes-Thfs pan
Is designed to be set up in a
sink or on a table in such e
way that the dishes will drain into
the dish pan, to which the device is
readily attached. The open end has
wire clip which fits over the edge
Of the dish pan.
Diving apparatus - An elaborate
diving apparatus is designed mainly
for sponge fishing. 1t has three bay
windows provided with glass-covered
portfolios through which the bottom
Of the sea may be examined, and a
water-tight chamber through which
the diver leaves and enters the main
casing. BY means of rubber hand
and-arm casing projecting downward
from each bay window, sponges may
be gathered and placed in a small
receptacle below the main floor while
the diver remains within the casing.
This apparatus Is tilted from side
to side by the occupant by means of
weights movable on a circular track.
Holder for shaving soap-This de-
vice, designed for convenience in
shaving, provides handle, which is
easily attached to a cylindrical cake
Of soap. The cap or pan into which
the soap fits is provided with a pair
of perforations on one side. The
handle consists Of a loop Of wire, and
the sharp ends of the wire are in
serted through the perforations and
into the soap.
Hatpin with safety point-The
body Of this hatpin consists of a
tube, in one end of which is sliding
wire tipped with a sharp point. The
wire is made as a spring, and when
drawn out, takes the position shown,
with the point folded back against
the tubular portion. When the hat
pin is to be removed, the wire is
easily Strengthened with the fingers.
Telephone outfit for the deaf
This telephone outfit, when not in
use, has the appearance of an ordi-
nary hand bag. In one Of the pock-
cts is a battery and telephone trans
mitter, the latter having its receiv-
ing face attached to the perforated
wall Of the bag so that sounds will
be received through the perforations.
Combined bed and cabinet-In city
apartments, where adequate closet
room is often lacking, a bed in which
the head is made in the form of a
cabinet, should prove great con-
venience. The cabinet portion has
two compartments, the lower being
reached through a side door, and
the upper through an opening at the
top. which is closed by lid operat-
ing on sliding standards.

been totally or partially removed. The
work was then allowed to lapse.
AS an experiment Baltimore COM
pany in 1925 placed three light steam
ers on the river. When they reached
Harrisburg from York Haven, the
townspeople went wild with exulta-
ton. Some of these boats made a
number of successful trips up the river
and up it's two great branches as far
as Danville, on the northern affiuent
and Milton, on the western. One of
these steamers on one occasion, passed
up the North Branch as far as the
New York State line. In April, 1926,
one of the boats. the Susquehanna by
name. met with disaster by a boiler
narrow passage Of the Nescopec Falls
in front of the town of Berwick. The
other boats, which were named Pion-
eer and Codorus, were then with
drawn from the river.
Telegraph's Publicity
Digging back into the files Prof.
Vert found the Telegraph, always
leading in the work of public i'm
provements, once made an effort for
navigation on the river when two
years after its founding it gave much
publicity to q movement for naviga-
tion on the stream.
Harrisburg had become recognized
as the center Of the agitation in re-
gard to Susquehanna navigation. So,
in the Fall of 1888, large and en-
thusiastic meeting was held In the
Courthouse. at which was launched
a scheme for the construction of a
navigable Susquehanna. AT ter
speeches a committee of representa-
tive citizens was appointed to push
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1914-02-28

the matter. That committee issued
"An Address to the Citizens of the
United States" which was diffused
broadcast throughout the land; and,
also, "a Memorial to the Honorable
the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the Congress of the United
States" These were lengthy and ably
written documents urging in forcible
language the construction Of q water
way for ships, part by an improved
river bed. part by canal, from the
mouth of the Susquehanna to the
Great Lakes. The arguments were di-
rected toward proving the feasibility
and desirability-nay, more-the alb
solute necessity of the work outlined.
During the months of October and
November, 1888, these two documents
appeared In full, in substantially every
newspaper in Pennsylvania, and also
In large number outside the limits
of the Commonwealth. In 1894,
Henry K. Strong, very prominent
citizens of the Harrisburg of that day,
took up the matter in a long personal
interview with Honorable Lewis Cass,
then Secretary of War.
Since then up to the present many
but futile efforts have been made to
the same end. Yet dreamers still
dream of ocean-going steamers dock
ing at Harrisburg.
