By F. B. COTIRTENA Y,
" 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.

FINANCIAL REFORM
REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE.

In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do
not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an-
other ; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling
value and universal import as must prove, in the fullest sense of the
term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not
the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. How this may
be effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated
business system, will readily show.
