Papain and Thailln In Cancer.

The London Medical Recorder, turns out
TO be Dr. j. Mortimer Granville. He has
since supplemented his first statement by
further communication, in which he says
that if the solvent or digestive power of
the papain is to be brought to bear on
the morbid growth it must not be ex-
hausted by being first mixed with food.
He therefore recommends very frequent
administration of the papain and thallin,
and their combination in the form OF
pills. The aim is TO get absorption of the
drug, not local action on the stomach.
In cancer of that organ DIR. Mortimer
Granville gives, besides the pills. papain
suspended in water with thallin and an
alkali.
With the view of further preventing
exhaustion of the papain lac directs that
the patient shall be fed as exclusively as
possible on vegetable diet, and that the
pills shall be taken before meals or in
the interval between them. He has not
found that the thallin given as described
exerts any injuriously depressing effect
on the organism as whole. The vital.
ity of the morbid growth seems to be
depressed hy saturation with the thallin
and papain locally; this is effected by
applying strong paste Of two drugs in
combination, or, where practicable, by
their Injunction. The results obtained SO
far are said to be encouraging, and
make it clear that the method will de.

lawmakers of Wisconsin have learned

fragments place with portions of other

grown up around apportionment by
legislatures are so serious that some
