Every one is familiar with the Intensely disagreeable sound made by a locomotive when it suddently begins to blow off the excess steam in its boiler through the safety valve. These valves are invariably used on all steam boilers, so as to reduce to a minimum the danger of explosions.

Codman, citing nearly 200 cases, notes that the burns resemble sunburn, but that they may extend much deeper, the body being transparent to these rays. The burns do not usually appear immediately, most often developing in about ten days, though sometimes delayed for months. Some persons are very susceptible, others are not affected in any way. Injury may be avoided by interposing a thin, grounded sheet of aluminum, or by keeping the time within safe limits, and it is concluded that an exposure of five minutes at a distance of ten Inches or of twenty minutes at twenty inches can do no harm. Not least singular Is the apparent cumulative action, a number of successive safe exposures of the same surface seeming to be as dangerous as a single long exposure. White Coal.
