The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorouci efforts
now being made by the Society to save the lives of Ship-
wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
the present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
the Society has made within the past few years, it has now
One Hundred and Twenty-one Life-boats under its man-
agement, lor the maintenanceof which, in a state of thorough
efficiency, a large permanent annual income is absolutely
needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of

By P. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
kinds oi seat discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
e, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management

most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
to be four d in the private study of all who are subject
otought stricture."-711edical Circular.

—Dr. Culverwell has already established the re

an able nhYsician; he has now proved himself to aworthy
philanthroPist, in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-

which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinemen-

which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur
