Ancient and Modern Surgery

In the way of medicine and surgery
there is little new under the SUM- Many
of the surgical instruments figuring In
the latest catalogues of our best In
strument makers as new inventions by
practicing hospital surgeons are, says
the Medical Times, practically duplf-
Gates of those used by surgeons in the
days of the ancient Greeks and Romans,
as demonstrated by relics recovered
from the ruins of Pompeii and other
buried cities.
Professor Walsh of New York, in a
paper published in the Johns Hopkins
Hospital Bulletin for July. refers TO a
law of Emperor Frederick III of the year
1241, which commanded, as the curricu-
lum of study for young physician,
three years spent in the study Of logic,
followed by four of medical study. At
the end of that time the graduate was
to spend a year in practice with advice
and under the direction of an expe-
rienced physician before venturing to
practice Independently
In surgical work De Chauliac in the
fourteenth century forestalled modern
abdominal surgery. He opened the alb
domen in order to stitch wounds of the
intestine, described method of suture
and invented a needle holder A print
of the thirteenth century represents a
surgeon operating for hernia with the
patient in the Trendelenburg position.
This highly developed surgery was rem
dered possible by the use of anesthetics,
the preparation in most common use
being a combination of opium and man
dragora. With these historical facts be-
fore us. a proper sense of propriety
would cause US to hide our diminished

Eighteen canvases by Theodore
wores were put on exhibition Monday
last at the Gump galleries in Post
street and have attracted considerable
attention because of the interesting life
they reveal and the wealth of detail
and color depicted. Cherry and plum
blossom festivals. japanese gardens and
bridges and ponds, mountain villages
and city streets, theater views, chrys-
anthemum shows and tea booths with
their people in quaint oriental COS
tune are all woven beautifully into
these paintings. which are handled with
a vivid delicacy that forms great part
of their charm.
The largest of the eanvases on dis
play is a street in Ikas. an odd pic
turesque crooked street, lined with
charming oriental houses. set at the
base of blue green hills. The brown
stone stairs leading through the street
are dotted here and there with the
brilliant oriental costumes. bright for a
festival
Even more appealing, however, is a
Mountain Village" in cool shades Of
gray and green that blend beautifully.
The coloring in this is very pure and
clear and the setting itself is more than
attractive, the houses, quaint and typi-
cal of the country. being built zigzag
on the side of a beautiful hill

pretty Japanese maid in oriental cos
