SURGERY is MADE SAFE
BY A new ANESTHETIC
Does Not Produce the Bad After Ef-
fects Resulting From Use
of Ether.

BOSTON. November 2O-Ether, the
adoption of which has revolutionized sur
gerry in the last half century, may soon
be superseded as an anesthetic as re-
suit of the remarkable experiments being
made by DR.. Frederic ]. Cotton, q Bos-
ton surgeon. BY combination of gas
eous elements Of the air containing about
half the proportion Of oxygen in the
earth's atmosphere. DR.. Cotton has sue
ceeded in producing anasthesia, not
only without the slightest danger or dis
comfort to the patient, but so agreeable
that the patient is unconscious Of what
is being done.
Technically speaking, Dr. Cotton calls
his anesthetic nitrous oxide diluted
with oxygen He has alreauy rsed it
in operating on seventy-five private pa
tients. Several Of these cases were so
grave that the nausea and surgical
shock which would have followed the
use Of ether would have been fatal. Yet
with the use of "doctored air." as the
new anesthetic might be called, the Sc
rious operations were performed with alb
solute safety, and the patients are per-
fectly well.
Appliances for the use Of the doctor
ed air. are being installed in several OF
Boston's principal hospitals. The expert
ments have been made so quietly that few
outside the medical profession have been
aware of the tremendous importance OF
DR.. Cotton's discoveries.

Machinery From Dalecarlia Being
Installed in New Hull.

The machinery for the new dredging
machine of the United States engineers
department is being placed aboard the
hull at the headquarters of the engineers
service at the western end of the harbor
on the Potomac Park side. The new ma
chine, it is understood, will be ready for
service next spring and is to be used in
dredging work on the shoal tributaries of
Chesapeake bay which are being i'm
proved under the direction of the army
authorities.
Much of the machinery being used in
the new dredge comes from the dredge
that was Used in the construction of the
Dalecarlia reservoir and which could not
be moved from the reservoir, but it is
stated that the hull Of the Dalecarlia will
be submerged in the waters of the reser-
voir and thus preserved SO that it could
be used should it be necessary to again
place dredge on the reservoir. The hull
OF the new dredge was built at Baltimore
and was brought to this city several
months ago Machinery and deckhouse
are to be placed in position at this CITY,
The sidewheel self-propelling snag pull
ing boat which is used by the army
authorities to remove obstruction from
shoal water is also at the engineer head
quarters to be fitted with new boiler and
machinery before going into service again
in the spring.

waste as exacting nature can demand
which, taken occasionally, will pre-

serious diseases which are caused by
the blood taking UP the poisons from
the intestines and carrying them
through the system.
That method is the a. B. L. Cas-
