Piute Indians Still Rids Prss en Can

It haa been a source of delight to tha
Indiana to think that In one rase, at
least, their paleface friends showed
the gratitude which la so seldom ex

wise men who daringly started that

Chicago were connected by rail. They

on the platforms of the mail and ex
press cars, and on top of the core and
empty flat cars. Sometimes a freight

Leud Telephones for Ships.
One of the most important Instru
ment on modern vessels is the so
called loud talking telephone. Ex
periments have recently been mads
with It in the German navy, and have
proved so satisfactory that instru
ments are now being placed on most
of the large sea-going ships. The spe
cial value of this telephone lies In tha
fact that a captain standing nn the
bridge can easily hear any words that
may be spoken to him from the in
terior of the vessel, even though a
violent storm may be raging at the
time, and can In turn transmit without
straining his voice his own orders to
officers or men In any part of the ves
sel. Had accidents have occurred
through a misunderstanding of orders
given at a critical moment, due to
the fact that the words were not dis
tinctly heard, and It Is only reasonable
to assume thnt casualties of thia kind
can be avoided In tho future through
the use of this loud-talking telephone.

C00K.8 A SICK MAN WELL
PUT INTO A HOT STOVE ANO
BAKED UNTIL CURED.
The Theory of the Mrjr-Hnt-Alr Proeea
I to Intensify tho llaneflt of the
Tnrklah and Similar llntha im Danger
or ttnaetlng the Patient.
Knsllsh publications nre giving some
space 1o what they call the "baking
cure," by which a sick ttinu Is described
as being "put Into a stove and cooked
tint II be Is well." A hospital devoted
to this treatment has Just been estab
lished nt London, nnd the Idea seems
to lie wholly novel over there.
In tills city, on the other hnnd, where
it Is knonn ns thermaerothernpy a
word ctymologlcnlly iinlmpenchnble,
but to be found only In the newest dic
tionaries nlso called tho treatment by
Mtperliented air, P.ellevue bus used the
process several years, nnd a private
hospital on the west side of the city
practices It a I most exclusively. An
other such Institution exists In Phila
delphia, nnd still ot hets In Cincinnati
and Chicago.
The theory of the dry-hot-air cure
Is to Intensify the benefits of Turkish
mid similar baths. The patient's head
being outside the machine, nnd in at
mosphere of ordlnnry temperature, his
body cnti stand much more beat than
If the exposure thereto was complete.
As the treatment Is essentially local.
provided nothing Is the matter with his
biol. there Is no need for a mnn to
breathe other nlr than he is used to.
There Is nothing startling in the gen
cral conception of cnloritlc thernpeu
tics. The hot-water bag Is one expres
sion of the principle, nnd the homely
mustard plaster another. The ruins
of Athens, Alexandria, Bagdad, Cairo,
Constantinople, Damascus, Herculn
ileum. Pompeii, nnd Itotne contain the
remains of hot-nil baths uncrpinlled
to-day. Among the famous baths nf
the Kternnl City, those of Agrlppn.
('aincnllit, Diocletian, aud Titus, none
was without. Its caldarlum. or hot-air

t'alcn extolled hot nlr ns n therapeutic
agent. The Turkish bath is really a
ltomnn revival. Constant Ine Intro-
r-uced It l".o Byxntitlutn lifter bis con

The ltitro.:.ectlon of the tbermaero
thcrnplc npparntus nt once raised the
temperature to which It Is possible to
si'liject the human body from 170 to
4(K) degrees. Of course, neither the
whole body nor any vital organ can be
pot to tiny such heat. Between 275
and liHd degrees is the hottest that is
safe for the truuk. To discriminate
nmoug beneficial temperatures, three
machines nre used the body, the leg
nnd arm nnd the local styles. Tho body
nnd the leg aud arm machines differ
only in size, shape nnd a few minor de
tails. The walls consist of three cou
centric cylinders, separated by spaces
nf an Inch nnd a half. The outermost
tylinder Is of nickel-plated sheet cop
per, lined with asbestos to minimize
the external radiation of heal; the
middle cylinder, of sheet steel, also
asbestos lined; nnd the third of brass.
with cork ribs to protect the pntlent
from burning.
Bunseu burners, ns many ns may be
veiiuired. supply the beat to the space
between the steel and copper cylinders
and the products of combustion pass
off through three flues. The steel cyl
mder radiates tho heat, through many
perforations In the brass upou the
body of the patient. Fresh nlr is con
Mitntiy fed into the second space, or
circulating Jacket, aud escape into the
tines nfter It has been vitiated.
The patient lies upon u mat of
fibrous magnesia, covering a layer of
asbestos. The cylinders are mounted
upon massive metal legs, nnd at either
end of the body machine are wooden
ex. elisions for the head aud lower
limbs to rest upon. The apparatus
looks like n combination of bed nnd
stove, which Indeed It Is. It weighs
about fifty pounds and the leg and arm
machine 4Cgl. Tho lutter bus a glass
door through which the attendant may
watch the limb. The local device is a
cork-rimmed instrument with various
uttaehrueuts for the application of a
swift, current of hot air to the car, all
orts of common sores, and other pnin
ful spots. The attendant mauipulntes
the contrivance and regulates the tem
perature. The air comes from a tank
where it is stored under pressure, aud
is heated as released.
The treatment is employed to reduce
obesity and relievo writer's cramp, fo
rhcuuratiainT neuralgia, sciatica aud
gout, pneumonia, asthma and pleurisy
boils and ulcers,' but not tumors aud
ouncers.
The great danger is of literally roast
tug the patient to death, although uo
such fatality is on record. In addition
to the protection afforded by the mug
uesla mat and the cork ribs of the
Ivass cylinder, each pntieut wears a
bathrobe of outiug flannel, and must
satisfy his phystclau In a physical ex
nmlnation not only of the nature of his
ailments, but of his ubility to eudure
the process. His temperature, pulse
aud respiration are taken, and If bis
heart and lungs tiro not all right, the
usual treatment Is modified according'
ly. If they are radicully wrong, he
will have to seek some other remedy,
The average stay In the body-machine

Nearly every organ Is affected In
some way. The skin becomes first
flushed and theu mottled, and prickly
beat may appear. The secretions of
the sweat, sebaceous and lymphatic
glauds are greatly stimulated. Epi

neighborhood of former eruptions. Af
ter a few treatments tho eutlre epider

The heartbeats quicken from ten to
twenty-five minute over the normal,

to continue; more than aa hour and

dozen more breaths than usual are
drawn every minute, but the effort of
over-exposure Js the snme ns upon the
pulsations. Tito blood becomes more
alkaline, nnd the numlier of ted cor
puscles temporarily multiplies, but
nnnemla may follow excessive ex
posure. The temperature of tho notiy
Is likely to rise from wo io live de
grees above the regttlnr iilnety-elglit

soothed aud the patient may fall
asleep. Leave him too long In the
