of his now new discovery may perhaps be roughly toughly y translated in english as tho the freezing cure the necessary machinery consists of a well of metal lined with thick furs in which the patient descends the depth being about five feet this well Is surrounded by an outer shell while the cavity between the outer er and inner walls la Is filled with a combination blua tion of sulphurous and carbonic adds acids known to the scientific world as after its discoverer this gas Is kept in a liquid state at Ale grees below zero and ts Is continually forced into the cavity by pumps 34 pichet says the patient surround aby M by the furs and theiry the ley liquid has too ho impression of cold scold whatever and in fact his temperature rises after three ec onda treatment increasing from one halt half fo one degree in five fire minutes Y period of treatment ranging from fives to fifteen minutes la Is always sufficient tor for the time being tha number of needful repetitions varying in

i and tor for the last two years have devoted their entire time to the study their report was published two months ago and Is a remarkable document according to this report two hundred bundred persons suffering from various afflIct afflictions lons of the lungs stoma stomach cb nerves and kidneys were subjected to every possible physiological test in con connection lection aith ith the rei results ot of descents into the well while many others were examined less rigorously and the astounding statement Is mode made that a every single caso case the treatment was absolutely sue successful ful and the particular disease cured A quarter of an hour after the descent ono one halt half of the superfluous and disease breeding albumen sugar of phosphates in the body hav have entirely disappeared and the appetite of the pa tient has been materially increased M pichet eald said he had not made known his discovery to the world before because he wished scientific and I 1 exhaustive research to the value of bla his discovery ho ile believes that in five or six yeara years every town of ten thousand inhabitants will have one of these wells and estimates that it will take an outlay of ten million dollars to install them throughout the united states a complete apparatus with the compressor and all necessary machin cry ery costing while the cost of the treatment was decided by the two doc doctors torp who conducted the test in geneva one of whom had bad cured himself of cli chronic ronld bronchitis is by the freezing cure the poor of geneva are receiving gratuitous treatment at this me M 1 ia sanguine as to the ac cep tane of bis his treatment by medical authorities of this country awl and believes that the cure will be in general use 1190 in america in two or three yeara years the action of the well he says Is extremely rapid in all cases and has bcd a success in consumption as in other diseases the effect being similar to tha the action of high mountain air on oa diseased lungs it pichet baa has however adapted his big liquid pichet to other uses us besides the those of a medicinal and healing nature by its aid he says he lie haa been enabled to produce a highly refined and purified quality of acetylene gas gag which he be bel believes leves will revolutionize them tho methods ethoda now used of lighting heating and motive power purifying the acety acetylene leue gaa gas at a low temperature by the aid of tho the liquid Pc pi ctet teth ft combination bi la to obtained that he asit erts will not explode burns without smoke and makes a light from twenty to twenty alve times umes more wore bright than that of ordinary illuminating gas scientific purity Is attained attaint wl at a tem pera ture of degrees below zero while for the the ordinary demands of commerce degrees below zero Is considered sufficient the liquida Pi pichet ctet ho be says does not purify purity Acco tylene gas alone but batts to now being used in europe to purity drugs more particularly chloroform sulphurous ether etc the refined chloroform la is the most important product being rendered absolutely pure at degrees below zero fifty kilograms of liquid pichet per hour are necessary for all these refining forms the machine having eighty horse power and being valued at M intends to remain a conald erable time la ira this country and will visit all the principal colleges and universities versi ties of the north and west he ile expects to remain in this city about five weeks and will finally visit scientific men of the universities and schools from this city ho he will
