in DarninE Mans Abdomen In Chicago.
"When Isaac Ascher, who is at tho
County hospital suffering from an
operation performed, RECEIVERS, he need
not fear going to war, for he will have
a coat of mail" said a young physician
who saw the operation. DIR. Charles
Dawson and his assistants placed about
twenty-five feet of silver wire In
Asher's abdomen in darning rupture
of the anterior abdominal wall.
The muscles had been spread so TAR
apart that they could not be draw to-
Rether, so the doctors used fine silver
wire to literally darn a space of three
by five inches. This is probably the
first time this operation has been per-
formed in Cook county.
After the lattice work of silver
threads between the muscles had been
completed the skin was drawn to-
gether and sewed. The patient is
resting well, and there is no fear that
he will not recover. Six times before
he went to the County hospital. few
days ago, Ascher had been operated
upon.
