How TO treat patients for specific
trouble with the drug known ms Ehr-

In a paper which he read before the
Richmond Academy of Medicine and
Surgery Tuesday night.
DR. Sycle claims to he the first ply

he believes that Il possesses much
curative merit. On November ~ he
injected a dose into patient SUFFERING
from a malignant case. and the enect
was simply marvellous. The man.
though treated for several years. had
not responded to ordinary remedies.
he was suffering from painful iniiam-

a deep ulcer on one of his legs.
Shortly before injection of the drug,
what Is known "a the Wasserman test
was made, showing the specific para
site. Three hours after the Injection
the pains from the disease had left the
patient. In two weeks the ulcer had
become clean. while the infiamed joints
were normal. The Wasserman test
was again made and 10 parasite was
found.
Wearing Bright Smile.
The patient is now progressing NICE
~ DIR. Syci. said. and is going about
with a brighter smile than he has
worn In years. A complete cure has
apparently been effected with the SIN
gle injection, although the ply ician
would like 10 have some time for fur
ther observation before declaring posi-
lively that such is the case.
A strange feature of the drug. he
said. Is the fact that II gels better re-
suits IN tertiary or advanced stages
than III ineipient stages, and this Is
probably que to the fact that II has
more parasitic bodies To work on when
the patient has passed the latter stage
