OLD TIME SURGERY.
The RarbaroAss Methods of the Six
teenth Century.

teenth Century.
Ambrose Pare, a barber surgeon of
the sixteenth century, tells in his notes
how in 1887 he went to the long wars
to get practice in surgery. He invent
ed some new processes, particularly in
the treatment of amputated limbs.
sUpsto Pare's time the most barba-
rous means had been used to. stop the
bleeding. In his own words: $50 soon
as the limb was removed the surgeons
would use many cauteries to stop the
flow of blood, thing very horrible
and cruel in the mere telling. And
truly of six thus cruelty treated scarce
two ever escaped, and even these were
long Ill, and the wounds thus burned
We're slow to heal, because the burning
caused such vehement pains that they
fell into fever, commissions and other
mortal accidents. In most of them,
moreover, when the scar fell off there
came fresh bleeding, which must again
be stanched with the cauteries. So
that for many healing was impossible,
and they had an ulcer to the end Of
their lives, which prevented them from
having an artificial limb
The idea of abolishing such cruelty
by using the ligature occurred to Pare
in one Of his war journeys, and his
success went beyond his own expecta-
tons. His other discovery was made
within a few hours of his joining the
army. 1t was believed by the surgeons
of the day that there was poison in a
gunshot wound, and one Of the accept
ed authorities insisted that they must
be cauterized with oil of elders scald-
ing hot, mixed with little treacle."
The pain was intolerable. 1t happened
that at his first treatment of gunshot
wounds Pare's oil ran short, and he
used instead "a digestive made of the
yolks of eggs, Oil of roses and turpen-
tine" To his surprise he found next
morning that the patients he had thus
treated were in better condition than
the others. s'Then ] resolved never
more to burn thus cruelty poor men
with gunshot wounds"

The Euu In Medicine,

Ghe white of an egg is an antidote in
cases of poisoning with strong acids or
corrosive sublimate. The poison will
coagulate the albumen, and if these
poisons be in the system the white of
an egg, if swallowed quickly, will COM
bine with the poison and protect the
stomach. An astringent poultice is
made by causing it to coagulate with
alum. This is called alum curd and is
used in certain diseases of the eye
The yolk of the egg is sometimes used
in jaundice and is an excellent diet for

Mary stuart,s Curious Watches.

1
Among the watches owned by Mary
Stuart was a coffin shaped watch in
case of crystal. Probably the most re
markable one in her collection was the
one which was bequeathed to Mary
Seaton, her maid of honor. 1t was in
the form of skull On the forehead
Of the skull was the symbol of death,
the scythe and the hourglass. At the
back of the skull was Time. and at the
top of the head were the garden of
Eden and the crucifxion. The watch
was opened by reversing the skull. In
side was representation Of the holy
family surrounded by angels, while the
shepherds and their focks were wor-
Shipping the newborn Christ. The works
formed the brains, while the dial plate
was the palate. She also possessed an
other skull shaped watch, but it is not
known what became of it.
