The marvellous work of Dr.~w.s C. -Arons,
the eminent and distinguished orthopedic
surgeon, so widely and favorably known

his bloodless method, has aroused great

by Professor Lorenz.
DR.. Arons' methods are in every way
superior to those of Professor Lorenz, for
DR.. Arons never employs great muscular
strength or uses force in his operations.
Neither does he use the plaster cast, or
any stay, brace or corset. Nor does he
give any patient an anaesthetic DR..
Arons' patients are not confined to their
beds by his treatment. There is no pain
with any operation. His methods are pc
