Haskin [Continued From Editorial Page.] its being a substitute in all cases for the surgeon's knife. One of the first American surgeons to utilize radium in treating cancer was Dr. Robert Abbe, senior surgeon of St. Luke's Hospital. Xew York, tie , has been testing it in various forms ! of cancerous growths with so much success that he has spent thousands I of dollars from his own pocket in se ! curing the supply now in his posses sion. This is far from being suffl- I cient to his needs and. for several j years, he has been constantly in the market to increase it. The most important quality of ra [ dium is its powerful radio-activity. It i lias not only the power to emit a con tinuous pale light but the emanations steadily being given off are capable cf imparting this luminous appearance to other bodies within range. It also emits continuous heat rays. More im portant than either of these are its powerful invisible rays which can penetrate visually opaque bodies and impress a photographic image upon a surface beneath them. It's Curative Power It is these invisible rays, rightly di rected, which possess curative power. They have the peculiar property of penetrating healthy tissues without causing any unpleasant sensation but their action upon a malignant growth tends to annihilate it, turning its dis ease cells into healthy organisms. In a recent lecture. Dr. Abbee ex hibited a number of plaster and wax models of cancerous growths overcome by radium. They included all ages from a ten-year-old boy to a man of ninety. The boy had a sarcroma or bone tumor of the worst form upon his Jaw. Radium was applied. The growth stopped and was gradually absorbed. Now, after nearly ten years, the boy, grown to manhood, is perfectly healthy. His teeth are solid and there is no difference in appear ance betwen the two sides of his face. Radium is applied in small glass or platinum tubes. After the initial out lay. its use is not so expensive be cause the radio-active properties of the metal remain unchanged for 2,000 years and after that diminish gradual ly. The hospital which invests in a gram or fraction of a gram of radium is benefiting future generations by adding a perpetual agent to its cura tive equipment. Dangerous Element While seemingly harmless, radium can become a dangerous element in the hands of one unfamiliar with its peculiar properties. Under certain conditions, the rays may injure the skin and even start the cancerous growths it is used to cure. Many of the early experimenters suffered the loss of one or more fingers from cancer caused by the misuse of ra dium although no pain was felt at the time of the injury. Even Professor Becqueral, the well known French scientist, once placed a tube of radium in his pocket during a journey and carried it several hours before reaching the town where he was to lecture. A few days later a sore appeared upon his body directly |©ualiiy J | Superb V Cumberland Valley Railroad TIME TABLE In Effect June 27. 1916.

I* - nXRRISBURG telegraph J under the place where the radium had ! been carried. The skin sloughed off and the flesh was for weeks painfully sore. It is claimed that under some cir cumstances radium may retard na tural development in both animal and plant cells. A Paris student placed in two tubes the larvae of a small moth ; which feeds upon flour in its caterpil ! lar state. Those in one tube were left |in their natural conditions while ! those in the other were exposed to I radium rays. After several weeks, ! the larvae left in their natural condi ' tion went through their usual meta ; morphosis, changing into moths i which in their turn laid and hatched eggs. Most of the larvae exposed to radium influence died but those that were alive were still in the state of lar vae. They lived as grubs about three times as long as normally. The scientist suggests the fortune i in store for the beauty specialist who becomes sufficiently dexterous in the use of radium to treat young women so that they maintain the appearance and nature of eighteen when Ihey have grown to three times that age. Where Uadium Exists It is now believed that radium exists in other substances than the ores now being mined to secure it, although in such minute quantities as not to warrant the great expense cf securing it. Many healing waters have been found to owe their curative pow er to radio-active properties. Radium water is now being experimented with by the Radium Institute of London and is credited with the capability of curing a number of ailments including gout, dyspepsia, rheumatism and neu ritis. This liquid is prepared by per mitting radium emanations to bubble through distilled water. It is costly and a continued use is necessary to produce results. A single glass is worth a dollar and the patient using radium water must expect to drink at least SIOO worth before he can look for improvement. Radium is also likely to develop many industrial uses. Agriculture is the only one as yet established. It is believed that the residue ore left after the radium has been extracted will still retain enough of its principle to be of great value to the farmer. Dr. H. H. Rusby, dean of the Columbia University College of Pharmacy, has been conducting a number of radium experiments in connection with plant life during the present year. He has made observations of hothouse radishes grown in boxes, of field crops in Ohio and of gardens in Pittsburgh and at his own home, near Nutley, New Jersey. He has demonstrated that a judicious use of radium sup pies a powerful plant stimulus al though, if care is not taken, it may kill the plants. The radishes grown in radium-treated ground had smal ler tops than those grown in ordin ary soil a few feet away but the roots were considerably larger and exceptionally tender and fine flavor ed. DECLARES VOTER MUST PUT WELFARE OF CITY BEFORE PAR T\ During a sermon on "A Soldier tn the Battle of Battles" the Rev. Dr. William X. Yates, pastor of the Fourth Street Church of God. city school director and close follower of politics, declared that every voter must put the welfare of the city before the -welfare of the party and that women must be armed with the ballot so that they could help in the flglit for good gov ernmcnt. COMPOSER WILL, BE DROPPED By Associated Press London, Sept. 13.—1n a dispatch from Amsterdam the correspondent of the Exchange Telegram Company says that the Association of German Com posers has decided to Eugene cl' Albert, the pianist and composer, from membership in the association on account of his British origin.
