which is said to have doomed five New

tim Of his own invention.
Although the doctor was reticent to
talk about himself, marks of the inroads
OF illness were plainly evident. His front
teeth are gone and his fingers up to the
second knuckle are black, the result Of
radium necrosis.
A count of white corpuscles OF his
blood taken within the last two months
disclosed only 1000 to the cubic mill
meter, while a normal person has $500
to 10000. This Is one symptom OF
radium poisoning.
The radium first took effect on DR..
Won Soshocky in 1920 and only because
OF his ability to keep an accurate scien-
tif1c check on himself has he been able
to withstand the disease. Several times
he has been forced to go to higher alti-
tudes to recuperate.
The doctor has frequently risked his
life in recent years to treat friends with
