doses of the stovaine and administered
them hypodermically between the twelfth
dorsal and the first lumbar vertebrate
The nrst patient was a boy OF four and
half years, who was suffering from
paralysis. In few minutes the patient
became temporarily paralyzed below the
point of injection. His fnaction was
complete that 1t was unnecessary to
fasten his neither limbs to the operating
table. His hands were tied, to prevent
his interfering with the operating surg
con, and the operation went on to a sue
cessfui termination.
The second operation was that of
girl afflicted with a club foot. She wns
successfully operated upon, as was boy
suffering with hernia, and each patient
watched with interest the work of the
surgeon and did not feel one twinge OF
pain. The last person used as a demon
strating medium was a woman IS years
old, suffering with a fracture of the
neck of the femur, which was reduced by
surgeon after Professor Jonnesco had
injected his stovaine- None of the pa
tients showed the least signs of distress,
and all of the 90 medical men present
acknowledged that the day of painless
surgery had arrived.

DR.. Fl. Lee De Forrest is another advo-

magazine article the inventor said that

he thinks that only delays of a few sec

He thinks that the greatest use to which
the wireless telephone will be put will be

that every steamship will be thus
equipped within few years and that 1t
