ARMY MEDICAL CHEST.
Comprehensive Surgeons Kit Pre-
pared For Use In the Philippines.


\ Washington dispatch TO the Phila-
delphia Public Ledger states that
Major George F.. Bushnell. assistant
surgeon general on the staff of Sur
Geon General Sternberg. has devised
a surgeons kit which is u great advance
over the usual provision for detached
service. Its necessity has become APP
parent in the war in the Philippines.
where numbers of small bodies of men
are detailed on special expeditions or
for garrison duty in out of the way
places. The eXigency of sudden at
tack and the wounding of men or the
constant danger of sickness on ac-
count of the climate rendered il de-
sirabIe to have n small outfit of medi-
cines available for an assistant sur
geon's use. Major Bushnell has plan
ned Il strong medical and surgical
chest. . feet long by about II inches
deep and wide. To the uninitiated it
would seem marvellous how compre-
hensive the array of materials is in
one of these chests.
OF these handy portable outfits for
field service 100 sets are now being
made to send to Manila for use in the
active and divergent operations of our
troops. \ man can carry one anywhere.
and they are as comprehensive as it is
possible TO make them.
