The Order of the Thistle is 358 years old, having been first instituted in 1540. The Order of St Patrick was instituted in 1783. One of the engineers of the Cleveland CU.S.) Water Department, who assisted in. the construction of the Cleveland water tunnel, believes that he has dis- ! covered in compressed air the cure for consumption. He has arrived at this conclusion after watching "the effect of compressed air on men at work under it. He declares that one consumptive was completely cured, and that many men whom the engineers were at first afraid to pla^e under compressed air because of weakness thrived upon it. In the New York tunnel he claims that physicians have also found consumptives improving. A number of practical tests are to be made. Late Advertisement*.
