course, includes many commercial &C.

HEALING WOUNDS.

Leo and Vaucher treat infected
wounds by exposing them to the sun.
A part of the light ray is bactericidal. 1t
mas been proven that the violet and
death to bacteria while the yellow side
OF The beam has little of his power.
The sputum of the consumptive and
the excretions OF the typhoid patient
are no longer capable of causing dis
ease If they have been subjected to a
minutes.
One of the factors in the sterilization
of wounds by sun rays is that direct
bactericidal action. Another is the ooz-
ing which the light sets up. The serum
oozinS from the underlying blood ves-
sells washes the bateria out of the
wound and at the same time exerts
some destructive action on them. The
salt treatment of wounds, a treatment
which is rather extensively used in tho
British army, depends for it's success
upon the oozing Of serum which 1t
causes.
Leo and Vaucher advise exposing the
whole limb if the wouRd is on a limb.
or a large section of thu skin if it is on
the runk. The dressings are removed
n the U is allowed to shine directly
into h wound. 1t is better not even
to obstruct the ray by glass. II flies

necessary to protect the wound against
dust. The first exposure is for Is min
utes. After that the length of exposure
Is increased until the period is two
hours. The ooZing starts about 10 min
utes after the beginning Of the ex-
posture. A common promise is-put Your
wound there in the sunlight and watch
how soon 1t will begin to ooze and the
pain go down.
The Journal of the American Med
ical Association also quotes from
Presse Medicale the method Of treat
ment of a gangrene employed by
Mairesse and Regnier. In the earlier
days of the war many of the wounded
did from gas gangrn. Now thr ar fw
died from gas gangrene. Now there are
few deaths from this complication.
they now open up the wounds, remove
all the dirt and badly mangled tissue,
examine the wound secretions for gas
producing bacilli. If these bacilli are
found the patient is injected with a gas
bacillus serum
A method of preventing lockjaw used
by Berard and Lumiere is also quoted.
In the first year or two of the war
the Isl year or two there had been
almost no lockjaw. The wounds are
opened up well and cleaned thoroughly.
II there is any reason to fear locSjaw.
tetanus antitoxiny is given. 1t Is often
necessary to give small doses of tetan-
us antitoxin at intervals of a few days
for several weeks. Crystals Of sodium
persulphate are scattered in the wound.
This takes the place of peroxide OF hy-
drogen. 1t Is much better than that
agent.

The Crusaders.
From the eache Review.

We read now OF the more intimate story of our soldiers and what
they did and have done, not so much with pride rs with rejoicing that
at last the nation rose to its duty. Chaplain Watt. of the Gordon
highlanders, in a late Scribners, pays a beautiful tribute to the spirit
that moved the nation. II crossed the broad Atlantic, - he said, lin
one OF the most memorable professions that ever human eye beheld-
over 10000 brave mel moving eastward for sacrifice. The sea Law in
the sunshine smooth as a lake; and every day went up to the boat
deck and in the darkening, too. l looked abroad upon the most affect
ing spectacle that ever moved the hearts of man. Surely never, since
the birth of Christ, has such a thing been seen, so deeply charged with
wonder, and so full of significance for the future of the world. Some.
how, 1 could not help thinking Of Abraham crossing the desert from
Ur of the Chaldees, with the star of faith shining above him, as l saw
steep 5000 miles, to fight, and suffer, and die for Liberty. The long
columns of the old crusades, which imagination still can see, winding
their way through history, have not a more abiding grip upon the
memory of the ages. For this was part of a procession with a pr-
pose which encrcLes the world, the purpose of peace loving people
reused to go out into the unknown for the vindication of what was
sacred to their fathers, and not to return-even the remnant of them
till their purpose was achieved
