as If the rocky formation was before MN
on the table.

rspecialtos Is observed as in the depart
ments Of medical college. Tie professor
who would assume to lecture IN all depart
meuts with equal "use ana proficiency
would be severely ridtCulCd by his col
leagues and II Is just as absurcd TO sup
pose that the general practitioner Gun
keep himself informed of the many new
methods Of treatment that are being con
stuntly devised and adopted ia the several
departments OF Medicine aud surgery.

electric water baths, Turkish baths. static
electric machines. hiuh-frcqucncy cur
rent, and other most modern and up-to'
date apparatus are used Tor the cure oi
chronic diseases. Tho treatment OF tlt
chronic diseases that are peculiar to
women have for many years been large
factor in the cures effected at the luNa-
