tice in looking over the last Boston Medical
and Surgical journal, that DR. Rubee. of
this town, has been successful in operating
for the radical cure of Hernia or rupture.
This operation, we are informed. has been
performed many times within a year or two
in the Hospitals Of Europe and this country.
but never before in this vicinity When we
remember that one in twenty of our popula-
tion suffers from Hernia, we can we'll under
stand the importance Of an operation which
will effect a cure without risk of life, and
cause but little if any pain.-Freeman.
