THE RATIONAL TREATMENT of STRIC-
TURES of the URETHRA, in all their varieties and compli-
cations. With practical observations on the use and abuse of instru-
ments in the treatment of urethral diseases, showing that the unne-
cessary employment of instruments is a frequent exciting cause of
stricture, and that a want of practical knowledge and manual dex-
terity in their use, when necessary, is the source of most of the se-
vere, long-protracted, and complicated cases of that disorder so fa-
tally prevalent.
By F. B. COURTEITAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
" The operation of introducing a catheter through an impermeable
stricture is, without doubt, the most difficult in the whole range of
surgical operations, and demands all the prudence, science, and skill
of a master. The art can only be acquired, and that gradually, by
frequent practice."—Liston's Operative Surgery.

THE ATRAPILATORY, or LIQUID HAIR
DYE ; the only dye that really answers for all colours, and
does not require re-doing but as the hair grows, as it never fades or
acquires that unnatural red or purple tint common to all other dyes.
ROSS and SONS can, with the greatest confidence, recommend the
above dye as infallible, and ladies or gentlemen requiring it are re-
quested, if convenient, to have it done the first time at their esta-
blishment; which will enable them to use it afterwards without the
chance of failure. They think it necessary to add, that by attending
strictly to the instructions /given with the dye, numerous parties
have succeeded equally well without coming to them.
