LOCAL PHYSICIAN
DONATES RADIUM
DR.. Wallis Gives Six Tubes Of
This Wonderful Curative to
Philadelphia Hospitals.

A philanthropist has made it posi-
BILE for DIR. Wallis to donate six tubes
of radium for clinical use in Philadel-
phia hospitals. The intention is pure
ly benevolent; the donor desires to
place this valuable remedy in institu-
tions where the poor can be
treated free. These tubes of radio
active material have proved to be
equal to the most active salts of radi-
um in the treatment of cancer Be-
sides the curative effect upon malig-
nant growths, the tubes are now used
for charging water with radium ema-
nations. This emanation water is be-
coming extremely popular as rem
edy for almost all Diseases verita-
BILE panacea of De Soto's long sought
for fountain of youth. The use of
radium water was suggested by vir-
tues known to be possessed by certain
marvellous springs throughout Europe
and this country, famous for their cur
ative properties. Before radium was
known to science, these springs were
greatly appreciated by the sick, but
whose analysis failed to detect the
mysterious cause of their superior cur
ative properties compared to other
springs with the same proportions of
earthly salts, until radio-activity be-
came known. Tests for this element
proved them to be possessed with ira
ces of radium. 1t is now possible to
prepare water with the emanations of
this wonderful element by simply sus-
pending a tube of radium in water for
a few hours. The beneficial effects of
this water are noted shortl-- after the
commencement of the treatment, the
most conspicuous of which are the i'm
proved appetite, the sedative action
upon the nerves, inducing normal
sleep, influencing digestion and as
similation and stimulating the func-
tions of the liver and kidneys. The
wide range of conditions for which
this water is appropriate is explained
by the fact that it acts as function
stimulant or tonic. The diseases for
which it has become most popular in
clude rheumatism, diabetes, diseases
of the kidneys and it is now being adj
ministered in tuberculosis, and from
recent reports the results are very
satisfactory in this disease. 1t is the
intention of DR.. Wallis to place these
tubes in institutions where accurate

hopes by this method to obtain facts,
favorable or otherwise.
The residue after extracting the ra-
dio-active matter still contains a
trace of the radient substance and he
believes this will be of great value in
the treatment of whooping cough He
has prepared a plaster from this sub
stance and in a number of little pa
tients suffering with this troublesome
disease, relief of all of the symptoms
are noted Immediately, with general
improvement of the health.
Any physician desiring to obtain
radium water or the whooping cough
gladly accommodated by Dr. Wallis
free.
