It is not for me to discuss these different points in practice; nor shall I give any time to the therapeutic applications of the method, limiting myself to saying once for all that its efficacy has been considered very great in emphysematous asthma, chronic bronchitis, chloro-anemia, and passive hemorrhage; it seems to be both tonic and sedative, to use the language of the School.1 (of Medicine) Before listing the evidence collected by physiologists and phy- sicians, I think I should report, acccording to Jaeger,2 the account of a catastrophe which made a great stir at the time, and in which workmen and physicians maintained that compressed air increased
