Walking with Broken Legs.

| A new method OF treating broken
legs, described by the New York Sun,
is of nature to be of general interest.
1t is called the "anbulatory SYSTEM"
it's popularity consisting in the fact
that the patient is allowed, and even
encoura ged to walk freely within a few
days, sometimes within twenty-four
hours, after the leg is broken. The
Sun refers to the subject in connection
with meeting Of doctors at which a
man whose leg had been broken a fort
night before was introduced by one of
the surgeons of Roosevelt Hospital, and
proceeded to walk about the room with
| out crutches, and with only the slight
est perceptible limp.
The new treatment, which is said to
time, is applicable only in cases where
| the limb is broken below the knee.
Doctor Fiske, the Roosevelt Hospital
physician referred to, gave the results
OF two hundred and fifty operations in
which the ambulatory splint had been
successfully applied. Wherever the
treatmen had been begun promptly,
| the case of alcoholic patients, in which
| the danger Of delirium tremens setting
| in after the fracture was the obstacle.
| In healthy persons, male or female, the
| method had secured admirable results.
| The method itself is described as fol-
| lows:
The patient is placed in a recumbent
position, and the injured bones are set
in place and bound securely with an or
binary muslin roller bandage. No cot
| ton whatever is used in the binding.
| Outside Of this roller plaster Of Paris
| gauze bandage is wound. This hard
ems, and leaves the limb encased in a
plaster which generally extends from
the toe-tip to the knee-joint. 1t holds
| the broken parts Of the limb immova-
| BILE, and hardens rapidly.
The best quality Of cast and bandage
is employed, and the patient is encour-
aged to walk without clutches after
| twenty-fou hours. Care is taken, Of
course, to avoid all possibility of in
fammation setting in. The reason the
patient can walk so soon is that the
weight of the body is supported upon
the upper part of the ambulatory cast
which acts as a crutch.
Dr. Fislke cited case where a pa
tient ~ years old had been able to
walk Within eight days after the ap-
plication OF the ambulatory sphnt. The
healing OF the bones goes on while the
patient Dis walking about, just as IL he
were lying down, as the fractured limb
is in no way disturbed by the exercise.
In fact, the reuniting of the fractured
parts is FASTENED, and the stiffness OF
| joints resulting from the old method OF
keeping patient in bed and quiet Is
greatly reduced.
Within six weeks, often sooner, the
bones will have united, and then the
limb is subjected to hot and cold
douche baths and to brisk massage 10
restore it to its normal condition.

Whole Family Poisoned.

The family of Julius Semrow of Free
dom, near Appleton, consisting of himself,
wife and three children, narrowly escaped
death in two instances. On Saturday
evening, after eating supper, the entire
family was suddenly taken seriously ill.
DR.. Freund was called and soon had them
out of danger. On Tuesday evening the
same thing occurred again. In each in
stance nothing unusual was eaten and it
is not known what caused the trouble.
The symptoms were of arsenic poisoning,
but nothing eaten at either meal would
contain such poison. Although they
have not as yet fully recovered from the
effects of the poisoning, it is thought that
all danger is past.

New Assignment Law Upheld.

The new assignment law invaliGating

which they seized under execution week

later, when Henes made an assignment
to III. G. Schranck, the latter claimed that
under the new assignment law the bank
must come in without preference with the
other creditors, and he was upheld by
Judge Johnson's decision. The attorneys
for the bank alta cked the constitutionality
of the new assignment law. The judge
said he would not pass upon the constitu-
tionality of the law, although his decision
in effect pronounces the law valid. The

sences filed the room. From out of the
darkness shadowy forms stole and moved
and passed back into obscurity. I tried

from the pillow. My hair as touched it
felt damp and moist, my hands even
seemed to have grown feeble, and fell
weakly back on the coverlet in defiance
of my efforts.
l lay quite still, trying to recall events,
memories, thoughts, but l could recall
nothing. Then l heard voices, and tried
to catch the meaning of the words they
uttered-the voices of Mrs. Birket and

eyes turned from one to another of the
faces-"has there been an accident? ?"
