Daring Deeds or Modern Surgery.

In a recent address before London
medical association DR.. L. \. Weather
ly, a prominent physician, said that if
a surgeon of 60 years ago could wake
from his everlasting sleep in this world
and find himself in one Of the modern
operating theaters of medical institu-
ton he would rub his eyes and stare
with utter amaZement at the daring
deeds Of the modern surgeon; that ''he
would see the patient brought in al
ready unconscious of what was about to
be done; he would note the scrupulous
cleanliness which antiseptic surgery
has taught us III all the surroundings
of the room. the appliances of the op-
Grating surgeon and his assistant; he
would. perhaps. see the abdomen opened
and it's contents handled with the most
perfect con tidence. and this or that
operation. never dreamed of in his day
as being possible without instant death,
brought to successful termination.
And wonderment would be justifiable. -
DR.. Weatherly thought the fault with
the modern young operator in surgery
was that he was little too prone to
use his knife as means OF diagnosis,
without giving his powers of observa-
tion a chance to arrive at right con-
clusion. The address of the ds,in-
guished physician has attracted wide
attention--Le Leslie'S Weekly.
