as well. The papers show that more
than ordinary interest has been felt in
the work. The federation library was
found of practical value to many

OF those engaged in the work, also
making pleasant diversion from regu-

conceded that each year is tho best. The

the scientific world is explained by the
fact that he is one of the most sue
cessful surgeons of Germany to-day.
In his clinical department alone he has
performed more than 10000 operations,
which do not include his beneficent la
bors as consulting surgeon and chief
of the military hospitals at Berlin dur
ing the wars of 1866 and 1S70-71. His
immense popularity throughout Ger
many is not only due to his ability as
Il surgeon. but to his thoroughly or
ganizing the Society of the Red Cross

Although "a years old, he is physical
" in perfect health, and his almost
youthful elasticity is quite surprising.
He is a passionate hunter, and for sew
eral weeks every summer goes into the
hunting reserves of the Bavarian from

mountain game.
