Ambrose Pare. Il barber surgeon OF

how in 1881 he went to the long wars

the treatment of amputated limbs.
Up to 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 i'll, and the wounds thus burned
were 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. 50
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
n one of his war journeys. and his
success went beyond his own expecta-
tons His other discovery was made
