Items Gathered In
From Far and Near
Knife Cures propsy.
Boston Cor. New York Press.)

Boston Cor. New York Press.)
Dropsy. one OF the most dreaded
diseases to which human beings are
subject and hitherto considered incur
able. has at last yielded to the knife,
SO 1t is reported by the surgeons Of
the Massachusetts, General Hospital.
In proof Of the truth of their state
ment they point to Henry Lemay. a
shoemaker of Marlboro. Mass. who.
after having undergone an operation.
has SO improved. under the constant
operation Of the experts. he Is now re-
ported cured.
The operation on Lemay was the
first of the kind il this country. and
the sixth in the world. 1t was per-
formed by DIR. William A. Brooks Jr..
OF the hospital staff. The operation re-
sorted to In Lemay's case was origin
ated by DIR. Y. Soyesimi. OF Japan. who
has lost two out of his three cases. DR..
Rortte, a Frenchman, reports three
cases, OF which two are still living.
The results so far lead to the belief
dropsy eventually will yield to the
knife as readily as appendicitis or
other ailments which formerly proved
fatal in the overwhelming majority OF
instances.
The opeyation which has saved Lee
may consiSks in providing a perman-
ent drainage system by means OF
which the dropsical fluid. which comes
from the blood. Is returned to the
blood. Dropsy is not . disease. but
I symptom. and has varying forms,

pital he had two drainage tubes,
through which the dropsical fluid was
being drawn from his abdomen and
emptied back into the blood. When
the wounds of the operation had
healed the only visible evidence of
what had been done were the scars
left by the knife. The tubes were un-
der the skin, where the veins are in
their natural condition.
The net effect OF the operation was
to make an addition to the natural
system of circulation, thereby caus-
ing the forces concentrating on the
dropsical fluid to do sort of tread
mill or endless chain work. Though
the particular type of dropsy from
which Lemay suffered is very rare
scarce seen in the average hospital
practice in life time-the principle
is the same in every kind of drorsy,
the experts say, and what was done
to the Marlboro man can be accom-
plished in the case of any ordinary
dropsical subject, provided there are
no other complicating diseases and
the operation be skillfully and per-
fectly carried through

fore his illness. The only visible ev-
idence OF dropsy remaining in his
whole body is slight swelling in the
left leg, but this is gradually disap-
pearing.

terized by an excess of the natural
fluid in any of the Serious cavities of
the body or In the aerolar tissue. Le-
mays trouble was diagnosed by the
doctors as chylous ascites. Dropsy is
known as ascites when the fluid col
lects. in the abdominal cavity. Chyle
Is milky fluid containing emulsion
lied fat and other products of diges-
ton. The fluid in Lemay's case was
of this character and collected in the
abdomen.
Ascites may develop without assign
able cause. but comes most frequent
~ from cirrhosis of the liver. The
doctors told Lemay that they could
not determine definitely the cause Of
the dropsical fluid in his case. They
said 1t was a tropical disease. But
he had never been in the tropics. It
might come from excessive drinking
but he had always been temperate.
1t might be caused by a cancerous
growth. II so. the cancer itself must
have disappeared, the experts said.
DIR. Soyesima's theory, so success
fully worked out in Lemays case, is
the apparently simple one of draining
the fluid back into the blood. 1t
comes from the blood and contains
life-giving elements which ought to be
assimilated by the body. and would
be assimilated il all the bodily organs
were doing their work Why not put
1t back? Such was the idea OF the
Japanese surgeon. That was what was
actually done with the Marlboro man
by DR.. Brooks.
The saphenous vein, which runs
from the foot on the inside of the leg
to the femoral. or large vein, near the
abdomen, has been turned into a
drainage pipe. The vein was severed,
or tied off at the knee, whereupon
the portion above the knee became
hollow tube. This tube was then
doubled back upon itself, and the end
inserted into the abdomen, forming a
direct connection between the abdo-
men and the big vein.
The same operation was performed
on both legs, though not at the same
time. and when Lemay left the hos

Representative Citizens Asked
to Support Morton Monu-
ment Project.
LETTERS BEING SENT OUT
SIGNATURES TO A PETITION TO
BE PRESENTED TO THE coUN-
TY COMMISSIONERS ARE BEING
SOLICITED NOW.

Initial steps have been taken by the
Young Mems Business Club in the
campaign to secure bronze statue of
Oliver P. Morton, to be unveiled dur
ing the G. A. R. encampment mex,
year, and a letter is being mailed to
influential men all over the county
asking their assistance and support.
The missive Is self-explanatory, and is
as follows:
Dear Sir:
At the request of the Grand Army
veterans of this county and likewise
the Sons of Veterans, the Young Mems
Business Club has taken up the work
of securing soldiers monument, on
which is to be placed the statue of
Oliver P. Morton. The Wayne county
commissioners are authorized to ap-
propriate a sum of money to build this
monument, provided the majority OF
voters in the county petitions them to
do so. The commissioners have ex-
pressed themselves as being favorable
to such a commendable undertaking,
and If We can secure the majority OF
voters on the petition to the commits
sioners, we believe that there will be
no question but that a suitable monu-
ment will be secured.
The plaster cast of Morton now in
the court house is to be utilized and
a bronze statue made from it. 1t is
thought the entire cost will not exceed
5000. The probable site of the statue
is the court house yard, although this
has not been decided.
The committee in charge of getting
signers to the petition desire you to
take charge of the work in your COM
munity, and l trust that you will be
able to do so. We would like to have
the petition signed as soon as posi-
BILE, because it is planned to dedicate
the monument at the G. A. R. encamp-
ment to be held in Richmond in May,
1911, so you can well see that we must
move rapidly to get the work done.
Feeling sure that you will be glad
to aid in such commendable under
taking, and thanking you in advance
in behalf of the club, am,
w. w. Keller,
Secretary.
