The statement of an eastern phys1-
clan of high rank in q recent issue OF
the medical record that many cases OF
appendicitis which are treated by the
surgeons knife are amenable to
medical treatment, has not occasioned
much surprise and little or no in
terest among the profession in Kansas
City.
''The story is an old one," said q
we'll know practitioner. 1--WE have
discussed the knife treatment often at
meetings of our societies and long since
came to the conclusion that an opera
ton should not be performed except in
long seated cases, and only then when
supporation had begun. At it's incep-
ton the so-called dreaded ailment
known as appendicitis is as susceptible
to medical treatment IS a case of or
binary bellyache, for what is usually
called appendicitis in nine cases out
of ten, is but an acute bellyache which
only needs a drastic remedy to afford
