method OF treating patients at distance,

Is scarcely a city or a village in tie
United States that is not represented by
practice at the 1nvalids' Hotel and Sur
gical lnstitut.. Such rare cases as can
not be treated in this way, which require
surgical operations or careful after-treat-
ment, or electrical therapeutics, receive
the services OF the most skfilful specialists
at the Institution.

were expert In their spccialties. These
physicians may be consulted, by letter,

wish a specialists advice upon any
chronic malady. The same system OF
"specialites' Is observed as in the depart
nents of medical college. The professor
who would assume to lecture In all depart
hents with equal ease and proficiency
would be severely. ridiculed by his col.
leagues, and it is just as absured to sup
pose that the general practitioner can
keep himself informed Of the many new
methods OF treatment that are being cor.
staLtly devised and adopted in the several
departments OF Medicine and Surgery.
Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
have much to say in regard to this wen

the latest electrical apparatus, as well as
electric water baths, Turkish baths, static |
electric machines, high-frequency cur
rent, and other most modern and up-to- |
date apparatus are used for the cure OF |
chronic diseases. The treatment of the |
chronic. diseases that are peculiar to |
women have for many years been large |
factor In the cures effected at the Inva-
lids Hotel and Surgical Institute.
The violet-ray treatment, which IS
another interesting proceeding, is carried
out by concentrating. the light, rich in
the violet or chemical rays, from an arc
light with a specially prepared carbon,
upon any portion OF the body that may be |
the seat OF pain. Sufferers from neural
gia, sciatica, rheumatism, strains, sprains,

and some forms Of kidney and heart |

chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma and
the various skin diseases. AS a general |
hygienic measure its efficiency can scarce

real progress during recent years. and DIR.
