Text Appearing Before Image:
te ; yet, howevershe labours against wind and tide, her pass-engers in their airy quarters need have no fearsuch as had the travellers of olden time. THE RISKS OF RADIUM. Anybody who knows enough of radium tomake him covet it would as soon think of pop-ping a red-hot coal into his pocket. When thelate M. Curie brought to London the firstradium seen in England he was unaware of itsevil propensities, and was terribly burnedabout the ribs through carrying a phial of it inhis waistcoat pocket. Others, like Mr. Edisonand a Birmingham sufferer, who have sufferedagonies from the effects of the mineral, haveborne testimony to the mysterious horrorsassociated with its eternal radiance. TheX-rays used for curative purposes have thesame dangerous propensity. It is curiousthat radium and X-rays, which are both ofgreat use in curing superficial cancer, shouldhave the property of actually causing a can-cerous growth by long exposure. A good horse often wants a good spur. JP-?qra53P5iB3P53S8H!!!TOW^
