spider got a red spot on the
back and are they considered
very dangerous
Answer-T'he female black
widow spider has a red hour
glass shaped mark on her alb
domen. The bites are painful,
but not often serious. The poi
son sac is under the control OF
voluntary muscles and often the
spider does not empty any poi
son into the wound. The best
treatment seems to be to apply
a flaming match head to the
wound as soon as possible after
the bite. II nervous symptoms
develop. they can be controlled
by injections of calcium glu-
conate.

DEAR A. c.:
TAKING into account the age
i OF this couple, the wife's
trustworthy record and the ABB
surdity of her husbands accusa-
tons. one recognizes the true
significance Of his startling be-
havior.
His irrational wrath is a psy-
chotic manifestation.
He is falling victim OF senile
dementia.
In the school world, he is still
running on the momentum OF
nearly so years enforced habit.
Yet even there. I dare say,
close inquiry amongst discerning
students and staff associates
would reveal a substantial
awareness that the old fellow is
slipping.
II is only a matter OF time
until he must have Institutional
care. in justice 10 himself and
his wife: and IL is her duty,
right now. TO consult neu-
rologist and let him engineer
the humane solution.

THE Golden Age" of sur

the period after surgical anaes-
thesia was discovered, roughly
about 100 years ago. when TO
that triumph was added the dis

infections In surgical missions
--asepsis-which was roughly
about so years ago.
The three great problems Of
surgery were once said 10 be
haemorrhage, anaesthesia and
asepSis.
The control Of hemorrhage
was solved long ago by doughty
old Amboise Pare in the mid
die OF the sixteenth century, by
the use OF the ligature.
II seemed 10 many surgeons
OF my apprenticeship days that
there was nothing left for them

But there was and the new

surgery is physiology.
The old surgery was ana
