“In the month of December, 3914, M. 1 MlBerand, the then minister of war, ; commissioned him to organise his spe- | elal aervfce for the twentietb army, region at Troyes; he thus entered Into the army service, though still remaining a civilian.

but M. Justin Qodart, assistant seere-“ tary of Jit ate for the medical department of the army, the medical director and the general commanding the twen- I tieth region,/far from treating the civil- ! Ian as an Interloper, gave him every !

Use of Gymnasiums. “There is a gymnasium and a field provided with ladders, swings, hurdles and various forms for exercise, as well as calisthenics, and the limbs imprisoned for months, in order to obtain bony reunion or repair, whose tissues and muscles have lost the remembrance of their functions, are slowly brought hack to a state of usefulness. “The grand palace on the Champs Elyses, Paris, one. of the magnificent buildings annually devoted to the exposition of art, is now a hospital having K00 beds, and here again is found a perfect installation of mechano and elee-tro-therpay for renewing the usefulness

of useless limbs.

“In this connection I ought to speak of the wonderful work of Closset and Morestin, although the work of each Is worthy of a separate letter. Morestin has three services and works like a horse. He has what is practically his

Some Nerve Surgery.

Portals Of Infection

Drain-pipes which empty into cesspool or sewer, drains of kitchen-sink and toilet, bath and wash basin are open portals for the invasion of dangerous diseases. Typhoid and other intestinal maladies, and all the ills incident to sewer gas, constantly menace the home where drains are not kept in a sanitary donditioa Germs multiply by millions in the nooks and elbow's of these pipes, especially when the plumbing is old. Lysol Disinfectant kills all disease germs. Use it in scrubbing water, sprinkle rugs with it (it cannot stain the colors^ use it daily in sinks, toilets and cesspools; you will then make a better fight against disease than it can possibly make against you and yours.

Oosset has achieved some ’marvels in nerve surgery. He has promised to confide his full dossier of observations to me to assort, classify, and report upon, and I hope at no distant date to furnish a communication to the American profession, fully illustrated, that will give some comprehensive idea of his accomplishment. Bright months ago, just before he was transferred to a from line hospital, he had notes of 115 cases of nerve-grafting, with a result at that time of eighteen successes, some failures, and others to be determised when sufficient time has elapsed to show the

final outcome.

‘With opportunities extending over many years for observing celebrated surgeons in many great centers, I have never seen his equal in precision and method of aseptic routine, nor one to handle a bistoury and pair of scissors with the delicacy combined with dexterity possessed by him. It is simplv a delight to watch him in his delicate nerv# dissections and manipulations.’'
