JAPANESE NAVAL SURGERY.


Project Men In Battle.
Surgeon General S. Suzuki of the i'm,
perial Japanese navy in his recent az
dress at Detroit before the fourteenth
convention of military surgeons of the
United States made what vas declared
by Medical Director Joseph s. Wise of
the United States navy to he the most
valuable contribution of modern times
to naval surgery. He described in de
tail the surgical methods used in the
Japanese fleet He told how surgeons,
before every engagement, carefully in
spected the eyes of all gunners on the
warShips, how the ears of every man
in the fleet We're plugged with cotton
before the firing began and how Al
miral Togo fought his fleet from the
compass bridge OF the Mikjsa instead
of the coming tower. DR.. Suzuki said:
Much of our success in the treat
ment of wounds | ascribe to he fact
that before every engagement l ordered
each member of the crew to battle and
put on perfectly clean Undertaking.
In IL great many shot wounds frlg
mcnts of clothing are carried into the
body, and our ~insiStenCe upon clean IN
d%crclothing prevented many cases of
blood poisoning among our wounded.
"Our experience during the war PROV
ed that the coming tower of Il warShip
IL Il most dangerous situation. FraS-
ments of she'll penetrate through the
siits in the tower made to furnish the
commanding officer IL range of vision
and do great damage, R"lliZing this
fact, Admiral Togo in all the naval ell
gagcmcnts directed his fleet from the
compass bridge of the MikaSa without
receiving ut any time the slightest
wound.
THE vision OF thu men who fire the
guns on a warship Ilusl necessarily be
of the very best If their shots are TO
count. Before every engagement the
surgeons in the Japanese fleets exam
ined carefully the eyes of all the sun
ners. Any of them found with slight
impairment of vision We're treated, and
If the impairment was too grave to
yield to immediate treatment they
were transferred to another station
and their places filed by men whose
eyes were perfect.
During engagements every battery
crew was supplied with water in which
Il l per cent solution of boraclc acid
had been mixed to wash out their eyes
when they became affected by powder
smoke or dust. W. also issued to every
mar in the fleets before going into ac-
ton cotton wool with which to plug his
ears and thereby prevent rupture of
the cnrdrums by the conclusion of the
gun fire.

Disastrous results from irrigation in

They were willing to take his word

"'Ah, yes, but that was Il different

"'TLru how arc you going to avoid

except again to fall back on RIssia's

Tho president intimatcd rather dry

vines and actors. They were both
close students OF human life; both
dealt largely with the emotional side
of human character, and the stage
and pulpit were for thousands the
only links with intellectual pursuits
and speculative thought. He for one
did not condemn the stage and taboo
actors. The dramatic impulse and in
stinct was too deep, too universal.
too human and too lovely for him
to believe that It was meant to be
merely the instrument of satan. or
that it had not It's purpose for the
Frightening, reviving, refreshing and
elevating of life. The lives of act
ors and actresses were full Of dan
ger and Temptations; but for that
very reason all the greater was the
sympathy and respect that was owed
to them and need to extend a help
ing hand to assist them to keep up
the standard of their profession. The
task might call for some self-denial,
for some little pluck, but it should
be done for the sake Of an honor
able profession which played its part
in the public service.
