Coffin, M. D. of New York Read before Society of Alumni of the City (Charity) Hospital Although heat has been for ages and among all peoples, probably the most universally used therapeutic agent tn rheumatism and gouty af- fections, especially of the joints, the use of such high temperature treat ments as we wish to consider in this discussion has been of recent time. All agree that in all cases of sprains, synovitis, tendo-synovitis dué to trauma, and all simple inflam- mations of the joints, with or with- out effusion, we have in superheated air a wonderful therapeutic agent— Dr. H. C. Wood, of Philadelphia, de- scribing the effects as marvelous. But tn such cases as come properly under discussion tonight, chronic rheumatism or gouty arthritis, arth ritis deformans, etc. Dr. Rosenbaum, of Berlin, says that the treatment of this class of dineases in a matter of temperature, and discussing the subject, says: “The immediate local effects on the joints are at once obvious, especially in chronic rheumatism and gout; they become less painful and more movable after the first baking and jcontinue to improve with subsequent bakes.” RHEUMATISM, ARTHRITIS AND TENO-SYNOVITIS By Harry Stein, M. D, Altamont, Ill, That such an intense heat applie@ for half an hour must do good can- not be denied. The patients like it. It makeg them feel comfortable but never overheats them. It relieves pain in a few minutes. It reduces inflammation and absorbs effusion, which is go easily explained by the physiologic properties of heat; henee, will cure any form of arthritis in which the destruction done is not beyond repair. The American Medical Journal, published in Chicago June 56, 1909, on page 1836, gives as the specific reatment for rheumatism the Human Bake Oven or dry hot air. It also says: “If the Bake Oven does all these things, why not recommend patients suffering with this malady to an institution where such treat- ments can be had?” NOTH*~Those who find ft noon venient to go to Dr. Loughney*s San- itarium in Kirkland may find Dr. Loughney fn his Beatie offices, whtre he is assisted by competent lady nurses, Many patients are being | baked there daily, between the hours of 10 a. m. and & p. m.

Most of the people in the world—except ourselves—are mis- behaving more or less; and the more we know about ourselves, the less certain we are that we also are not in bad shape. Nevertheless, I am unwilling that the boy’s answer should go unqual- ified. The earth has a fairiy creditable record for a good many centuries for keeping regular hours. but excite our admiration for its reliability. It 1s the best world any of us has known thus far, and may be the best that some of us are likely to have. Let us admit that it is, in some respects, tn bad shape. Let us see if, working all together, we cannot get it into better shape. We cannot do much to restore the rotundity of the poles, but not many of us are anxious to live there, We can do something to improve the part of the earth where we actual- ly live, and that is the part that most concerns us.

The earth is in bad shape. Those people who re gard it as flat are troubled by its inequalities of sur- face, and those who regard it as round are compelled to admit that it is flattened at the poles, and that it wabbles at an absurd angle as it makes its daily revolution upon its own unsteady axis, and manifests in its annual journey around the sun.

Today the truth of ex- perience is making itself felt in the tire trade as in everything else. The quality instinct in the American public is bearing weight. As it always does. On May Ist, 1921, there were 36% more dealers selling United States Royal Cord Tires than a year ago. There might be a number of reasons why. Reputation, De- mand. Quality. Square- dealing. Stable policy. All these count of course. But of greater importance just now is the dealers’ repudiation of “discount” methods of doing business. These men are reading the public mind. They @are no longer willing merely to sell “discounts” —“so much off on this tire, so much off on that.” They are selling a tire service—a tangible, par quality tire at a net price obsipeigle say everywhere United States Tires are Good Tires discounts befuddle talks them deliversin excess of what is charged for it.
