MAKES WONDERFUL DISCOVERY
Injection of FOrmaIine Into. Veins
Saves Life of Woman Al
most Dead.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-At the last meet
ing OF the New York Obstetrical society
DR.. Charles c. Barrows Of this city sub
mitted a report of an experiment with
formAline, a drug known as the strongest
Of antiseptics, which he had made in
Bellevue hospital on a patient. who. after
giving birth to a child, had a temperature
of 1Os degrees and a pulse Of 100.
When the patient was admitted she was
suffering from sepsis, or ~blood-poisoning.
A blood culture was taken and 1t was
found to be full of septicaemia, known to
the medical profession as streptococci,
After the injection of formaline the pa
tient recovered rapidly. ,..t
The belief at the start was that the pa
tient was dying, and most radical measures
were used to save life. Five hundred
cubic centimetres Of formaline were in
jected into the left arm. The effect
seemed, according to DR.. Barrows' report,
to be almost instantaneous. A second in
lection was given her and her pulse and
temperature fell to normal. The patient
is recovering now.
Experiments are being made on animals
and further important results are ex-
pected. The injection of formaline into
the veins had never been heard Of until
DR.. Barrows read his paper.

tremely critical. I experienced great dim
Guilty in breathing and could not lie down
without smothering. My limbs and body
were badly swollen and 1 became very weak.
I had been under treatment by the best
physicians of Elgin, and was growing worse
every day. They could do nothing to re-
lieve me-, and. in fact. gave me up to die.
AS soon as l consulted DR.. Miles he
showed me that my doctors had failed to
understand my case and said he could help
me. 1t was wonderful how soon relief came.
II was almost instantaneous. 1 was soon a
well man. The cuEe was truly wonderful
considering my age, which was seventy at
the time 1 began treatment. 1 am now
seventy-six years old, and able to enjoy
llfe.''
