OLD TIME SURGERY.
The Barbarous Methods of the Six- .
teenth Century.
Ambroise Pare, a barber surgeon of
the sixteenth century, tells in his notes
how In 1537 he went to the long wars
to get practice in surgery. He Invent-
ed some new processes, particularly in
the treatment of amputated limbs. >
Up to Pare’s time the most barba-
rous means had been used to stop the
bleeding, hi his own words: "No soon
as the limb was removed the surgeons
would use many cauteries to stop the
flow of blood, u thing very horrible
and cruel in the mere telling. Aml
truly of six thus cruelly treated scarce
two ever escaped, and even these were
long III. and the wounds thus burned
were slow to heal, because the burning
caused such vehement pains that they
fell into fever, convulsions and other
mortal accidents. In most of them,
moreover, when the scar fell off there
came fresh bleeding, which muat again
be stanched with the cauteries. 8o 1
that for many healing was impossible,
and they had an ulcer to the end of
their lives, which prevented them from
having an artificial limb,"
The kiea of abolishing such cruelty
by using the ligature occurred to Pare
In one of his war journeys, and his
success went beyond his own expecta-
tions. His other discovery was made
within a few hours of his joining the
army. It was believed by the surgeons
of the day that there wax pollion in A
gunshot wound, and one of the accept,
ed authorities insisted that they must
be cauterized "with oil Of elders scald.
Ing not, mixed with a little treadle"
The pain was intolerable. It happened ,
that at hla fln>t treatment of gunshot
wounds Pare’s oil ran short, and tea
need instead "a digestive made of the
yolks of eggs, oll of roses and turpen-
tine.” To his surprise be found next
morning that the patients be toad thus
treated were In better condition than
the others. “Then I resolved never
more to burn thus cruelly poor men
with gunshot wounds."
Newton’s Fearful Crime.
At the end of s meal at Haydon’s
house Keats proposed a toast In these
terms: “Dishonor to the memory of
Newton."
The guests stared at him in question.
Ing surprise, and Wordsworth asked
for an explanation.
“It la," answered Keats, “because be
destroyed the poetry of the rainbow by
reducing it to a prism." And the art-
ists all drank, with one consent, con-
fusion to the savant. 1
