A new treatment is being tried at
Bellevue hospital. II consists OF drawing
off the fluid from the spinal canal This
Is beind done every other day and greatly
relieves patient. BY the use OF ice
bags they can then be kept in good con-
dition and with little pain.
The only question is" said one OF the
staff at the hospital. whether we are
getting all OF tho discharge from the
canal. We are not able TO tell because
there is no X-Ray strong enough TO de-
termine whether the fluid is clogged in
the brain. IL is believed that in the ad-
vanced cases it does clog up.
This treatment reduces tho tempera-
ture almost TO normal. thus affording us
an excellent opportunity for working. We
have found no drugs which have any
salutatory effect upon the disease.
ut is interesting TO note that the
meningococco the bacilli OF spinal menn-
gifts, are so similar TO the germs Of an
other disease that IL is difficult TO tell
the two apart. The meningococco have
