Dr. Richardson describes, in the Lon

involving the successful employment OF an
ahtsthetic which prevents pain without
destroying consciousness. thus supplying
most important desideratum in medical
practice. fhe cases in question were two
operations performed by Or. X. for the
removal OF generous tumors of the breast.
both patients being ladies'. A spray of
common ether was directed upon the tn
NOR until IL was thoroughly chilled. A
nghter fluid, compound Of ether with
nydride OF amyl, specific gravity 0.720 de-
frees, was then applied until the whole OF
we breast was frozen like a SNOWFALL.
Instead Of with a scalpel. the incisions and
removal were effected by means of small
suong, sharp, and curved scissors-the
u>e Of this latter instrument being con-
suered essential TO the proper manage
ment OF the ease. DR.. Richardson states
ulat the operations were successful and
ale healing speedy, without discharge or
trouble OF any kind.
