Triumphs In Surgery.

Cleansing Of the wound itself was nj
most a surgical heredg few years age.
Fouled bandages were the rule, and the
thicker and more abundant the ds-
charges the more "laudable" they were
considered 30 be. Hence IN the older
works on surgery the so-called "lauda-
Bile" pus was as much sign Of safety
as it Is now Of danger. Cleanliness Of
instruments, now a prime considera-
ton. was then entirely ignored Often
times the same instru, lents would be
used at different times upon the dead
as we'll as the living body, and cele-
brated operator Of that day was accus-
toned to hold his knife between bis
teeth when his hands were temporarily
employed In the wound. II cut heal
ed rapidly it was a rarity sufficiently
great to court fact The former result
was rather an accident Of cleanliness
than the deliberate acknowledgment Of
what should have been the rule. Con-
seQuenty the most careful surgeons
those who possessed instructive habits
Of neatness and cleanliness-were the
most successful.
