medical works extant state that by the use Of .
well constructed truss IL sometimes Happens
that the rupture Of infants become Radically
cured, but the came result, howeyeT, seldom
occurs at more aaysnced petiod 81 iife.T III
regard to the use Of the knife, the danger Is a.
great, that the patient has but slight CT sncs At
recovering after leaving the surgeons hand.
Sir Ashley Cooper, who was knighted for his
rare medical atiainments, states that out Of N
cases Operated on by him for rupture 50
proved fatal. From record kept By DR.. Tur-
ner, another eminent English physician, Ii APP
pears that out Of 545 cases reported, 26o pro we'd
fatal. Here We have the confession az ~
ablest Medical talent that rupture in inlants
may be cured by wearing tfuss one or fsos
years; but at more advanced age the sams re-
suit seldom oscars, and by the aso Of the knife
the chances for life or death are about equal.

The CANADIAN INsHoRE FIsHERIEs-Sec-
rotary Boutwell, has issued circular to Col
lectors relating TO the Canadian insbore fisher
les, which directs them to inform all masters
of vessels clearing from port that the Domin-
ion authorities have terminated the system of
| granting licenses to foreign vessels to fish
within three marine miles of the shores there
of; but, under the stipulations of the treaty of
1918 they have the right in common to take
every kind on that part of the southern coast
of Newfoundland, which extends from sCape
Ray to the Ramean Islands, on the western
and northern coast Of Newfoundland, from
the said Cape Ray to the Quirpon Islands on
the shores of Magdalen Islands, and also on
the coasts, bays, harbors and creeks from
Mount Jolly, which was when the treaty was
signed on the southern coast of Labrador to
and through the Straits of Bellisle, and
thence northwardly, Indefinitely along the
coast, without prejudice, however, to any ex-
elusive rights Of the Hudson Bay Company,
and have also liberty forever to dry and cure
fish in any of the unsettled bays, harbors and
creeks OF the southern part of the coast of New
toundland above described, and of the coast of
Labrador, unless the same or any portion there
of be settled, in which case it is not lawful for
the said fishermen to dry cure fish at such
portions settled without previous agreement
| ior such purposes with the inhabitants pro-
prietors or possessors of the ground, and also
are admitted to any other bays or harbors for
| the purpose OF shelter and of repairing dam
ages therein, of purchasing wood of obtaining
water, and for no other purposes whatever,
subject to such restrictions as may be neces-
sary to prevent their taking, drying and curing
fish there, or in any other manner whatever
abusing the privileges served to them.
The circular also sets forth in detail the re-
strctions and penalties enacted to prevent
the encroachment of foreign fishing vessels
upon the fishing grounds lying within three
milesIof the Canadian shores, md armed vessels
have been placed in these waters by the Brit
ish authorities to enforce the regulations re-
ferred TO.
