Antipyrin therapy and electric phenomena in old medical notes
A Maryland paper reviews Dr Bich on antipyrin in rheumatism noting limited cures and side effects, compares favorably to salicylates, and discusses treatment of ear and other conditions. A Westminster lightning event is described with a yellow cloud, electric bolt, telegraph damage, and fearful residents. Descriptions cover cremation practices at Fresh Pond Crematory, a crab joke, early electric power debates, and an essay on the rising microscope hobby with gear and dry mounting methods.
