Administering Ether

The most common mistake made by,
beginners in the administration Of
ether is thatsof forgetting to lessen the
proportion of the substance when full
anmthesia is esta blished-that is, con-
tinuing to make their patients respire
an atmosphere as highly charged with
its vapors as when getting them unde
its influence 1t is a matter of sur
prise to physicians how very little
ether will often suffice to keep Il pa
tent well under its influence toward
the close of an operation, and this
small quantity will always postpone
vomiting until the operation is com.
