consists in the introduction of the
indictments directly into the respira-

As the illustration shows, the physI-
clan uses a syringe with a curved tube.
and Introduces the point into the orifice
of the traeheal conduit by which air
enters into the chest The medicament
used descends the conduit without pro-
ducing the slightest dlsagreeable sensa-
ton. The patient feels a mild warmth

more freely for some hours.
The indictments thus introduced Toll
