Now, the property possessed by radium of imparting its acliVity to various fluids, 9. go, normal saline solution, seems to offer reasonable ground ior‘llope that, in this way, .it. may be therapeutically administerâ€" ed internally. and the fight. against bacterial disease be waged directly In the tissues affected, through the agency of the blood and lymph cir- culations and the various internal lecretions. Anothn... diseased condioncd in which the induced radioactive salt This at once suggusvts a. value for its Eystematic employment, should such be practicable. as a therapeutic agent renders it a subject of special importance says a Writer in the Medical Journal. Alâ€" ready many investigators are turnâ€" ing their attention to the treat- ment of various forms of disease by means 0! radium, and many fields have been proposed as promising ones for investigation of its action. For instance, among the various diseases in which it has been tried may be mentioned rel‘tain malignant growths, such as epithelioma. and and other superficial cancers, lupus, certain shin diseases, blindness from atrophy of the optic nerve, etc. Its effect upon microâ€"organisms and. forâ€" mentation, as well as its likely ac- tion upon the tissues and fluids of the body, suggests that, if it could be harmlesst intloduced into the system, a vast field of positive use- fulness lies before it. To take its effect. upon microâ€"organisms first As we have stated. it is admiited to have a. very considerable inhibitory effect upon the functional activity of‘ curious bacteria, moulds, etc, and it Is at any rate possible that it may possess a like effect upon protozoa. This at once suggests a. value for its l Wide Field in Which Its Marvel- lous Agency May be Used. The marvellous properties of radâ€" ium have made it a matter of wide interest to almmt everyone, but to, "the medical man its possible Value ney Pills. I had no faith in them, for I never expected to get better. |But I tried them, and I thank God Ithat I did.

The great improvements on the main line cast, between Toronto and Montreal, have been very costly, and have in some cases meant the al- most entire reconstruction of the road. The line has been straighten- ed, the grades lessened, and “Truth” is told that very shortly a. train will be put on between Toronto and Montreal that will make the disâ€" tance in very much less time than even The International Limited does now. "Truth" seldom travels on railway A recent trip to- "The States" brought “Truth” in contact, among other things, with the Grand Trunk Railway, and its incomparable din- ing car service.

At the village of Kobchausk, near Novgorod, stood a fullâ€"sized church which was pronounced to be in an unsafe conâ€" dition and was to be pulled down. But the building contained many souvenirs of the famous Marshal Souvors't, and his old regiment, which is stationed at St. Petersburg, decided to possess it. Money being no object, the whole church was careâ€" fully taken down, each piece being numbered, and loaded into 330 wagâ€" gons. It was then transported to the capital, and there has been re- elected with such care that it is as good as new and may last. for conâ€" turies. What Our Travelling Representa- tive Says of the G.
