moved now by the method having been an
pheu 10 subject obtained in legal way from
the city and county hospital, for anatomical
purposes.
We examined this subject last week, some
ID days after death; there was no sign of de.
composition apparent. There was no odor
wnatever, and the limbs and joints are as
piiable as when In life. The solution applied
10 the surface OF the body passes In by the
law Of endosmOsis, and seems to act nnon
every part Of the body. The flesh appeared
moist and natural in color. The ylscera had
not been removed, as has to be done in ordi.
nary embaIming. This subject was preserved
under unusual difficulties, us 1t had been ex
posed To the action Of the air during the en-
tire time since death, as 1t was necessary to
examine 1t frequently as matter OF expert.
As will be seen, this discovery Ia unite
simple In the means employed, rapid in the
Time required, and requires no expert to ap.
plylt The natural appearance il not dried
out OF the body, nor Is it at all mutilated.
Ihis subject has been critically examined by
several members Of the medical faculty Of
TINS city, who concur In the expression OF
their satisfaction a: the result Of their exam.
nation, which was conducted in thorough
manner. Among the physicians alluded to
were ". Wythe, Professor OF Anatomy In the
Medical College Of the Pacific, Dr. Titus, ex
resident physician Of the City and County
Hospital, DR.. Albertson, Vice. President Of
the State Homeopathic Society, DR.. Henry
Gibbons, Sr, editor Of the PacUac Medical
Journal, and DR.. Parry. Several incisions
were made, and 1t was found that the blood
was still as fluid rs II the man had only been
dead an hour or two, whereas fifty DAYS had
elapsed since his decease.
The process Is entirely accomplished by
the external application of chemicals with
out Injecting the circulatory system, as in
ordinary cmbalmtng. And still the body is
kept In perfect state OF preservation. The
process has proven for q period OF seven
weeks to be perfectly antiseptic In his action,
and also perfect disinfectant in it's effects as
there Is no odor emanating from the body.
For the purpose designed by DR.. Rogers, Of
preserving bodies for transportation to the
East or Europe, this discovery merits the at.
tention OF the public and especially Of the
medical profession. For preparing bodies
for anatomical purposes, when not needed
Tor immediate use, the present condition of
the BODY referred to warrants the assump.
ton that the process keeps them in better
state and Is superior to any method practiced
in the different medical colleges, as published
or now known to ANTAGONISTS +. Scientific
