tlons Due to War.

The use Of sOapsuds In treating
wounds is the latest innovation due
to the war. The method was tried by
two surgeons of the allies, and proved
SO successful that 1t Is coming into
general use. The Society Of Surgeons
in Paris recently took up the PROPOSE
ton and obtained full report upon
Its workings. Here is the official de-
scription Of this novel treatment:
From 20 to 40 per cent Of white soap
Is dissolved In warm water which has
been sterilized by boiling or distilling.
TampOns Of surgical gauze for cleans
Ing the wound are dipped in this sOapy
water, which is4used for irrigating the
wound. The wound is then bandaged
with gauze congresses which must be
at least a centimeter (about half an
inch) thick. These congresses are
dipped In the sOapy water, then rubbed
with the soap until saturated, after
which they are manipulated to produce
q thick white suds, and placed lightly
over the wound. and covered with alb
sorbent cotton, held In place by tar
latan. Essentially, the bandage thus
constituted Is sort of spongy tissue
made of millions Of tiny soap bubbles.
1t is renewed every two or three days.
and Is said to have the great advan
tage Of calming pain very markedly.
of not sticking to the tissues. and Of
not causing bleeding or suffering when
removed. The healing is rapid and
