Wu of the Hospital Convention.
Strangly advocated as a health pro-
motion measure. a yearly ohygical
" examination at hospitals. on or near
"onele birthday. Many diseases which
prove fatal in later stages can be
successfully checked at the start.
I‘ll a new idea only as it aupues

s_ion Inltitute‘has been doing this
for years. for those who pay its tee.
Life insurance companies advocate
it!“ If a considerable proportion of
thy public had the advantage of u.
tlflrough examination at tin hospi-
tsfls it would have tremendous bear-
upon the national health and ef-

or not. We have our watches exam-
" d and our automobiles gone over
pmodicaliy. It is equally good sense
tag have it physical examination by
a physician at stated intervals so
film one may avoid disease. Much
publicity has. been given lately to
the arrangement made by tho i’rcsi~
dent of the Baldwin Locomotive
works with his personal phlsician.
He pays his doctor so much a. year
to keep him well. If the patient is
ill the doctor losses his pay. it is
needless to say the physician will
keep pretty close tab on that sort of
I patient.
The College of Surgeons Secretary
albo favored doing away with the
’: mystery with which disease and its
5“ t eatmest had in the past been sur-
‘ nded. According to Dr. Martin
the principles of scientific medicine
can be put in every day language.
and this should be done. He argued
for a popular magazine whose sole
purpose should be to educate the
public concerning the fundamental
principles of medical practice. As
sna’tters now stand there is always
newspaper publicity regarding any
new or remarkable curative agent.
The trouble is it often lack scienti-
ilc expression. with the result that
.-; the public is misled. A recent illus-
tration of this is the insulin treat-
ent for diabetes. the public getting
e erroneous idea thauEthis is a
',"cure. whereas it is only relief. True
"feeling of Dr. Martin is that if the
rofession takes the public into its
.confldcnge in regard to disease and
Its scientific treatment it will be the
best way to offset the extravagant
'blaims of quacks and "isms" that

upon Ethylene. the new anaesthetic.
Dr. Luckhardt was the discoverer of
the anaesthetic qualities of - ethy-
lene, and the story of the discovery
is very interesting. Wisconsin carna-
tion growers who sent their f owers
to the Chicago market were suffer~
ing great losses because their carna-
lions so soon wilted and died after
being put on the market. They put
their problem up to the Univ :lsllyot‘
Chicago. Dr. Luckhardt soon discov-
ered it was the presence of ethylene
in small proportions in illuminating
gas that put the flowers to sleep.
'l‘his suggested the possible use of
ethylene as an anaesthetic, and Dr.
Luckhardt conducted a series oi ex-
periments on mice. rates. guinea
pigs, rabbits. kittens and dogs. He
then anaesthetised his assistant.
Mr. J. B. Carter 9. student in Bush
Medical College. and Mr. Carter an-
aesthe d Dr. Luckhardt. After
further-experiments on a volunteer
Squad of ten persons. the new an-
aesthetic begnn to be used in the
operating roolns of the Presbyterian
Hospital of Chicago. March 14. 1923.
Since that time they have used it ‘21
about a. thousand cases with only
ihcbcst results.
Dr. Luckhnrdt claims that it is so
superior to nitrous oxide that it is
destined to supplant the latter. Tile
patient. succumbs after tirio or three
inhalations. and recovery is eAually
rapid. After the longest operations.
consciousness is restored in' from
.hrce to live minutes. The patient
does not have much time o divulge
secrets or any experiences of his
past life. For this reason some have
called it the “silent gas". Othq
good features of ethylene are very
little nausea. never enough to Anter-
fere with the next meal. and an ex-
tremely low percentage of gas pains.
Dr. Borg, anaesthetist in the thous-
and cases at the Presbyterian Hospi-
lal declares it to be safe if one
knows how to use it. She advises
ovr-ry one to go slowly, how/ever, in
.rylllg the new anaesthetic. One in-
slllllllol‘l was cited as rushing in to
use it. “till the result of I‘cath in
the eighteenth case. All of which
goes to support the well cstab'lshed
position that anaesthesia is a feature
of surgical procrdurc that 'iIVVil)!
calls for gruitcst caution and ade-
quate training.
The alver Convention of the Asu-
es'ican Hospital Association it Mil-
waukee was a. revelation of the mag-
nitude and far-reaching influence
of hospital service. The Association
begun with eight superintendents
meeting twenty five years ago and
now draws together about three
thousand people from all pails of
Canada and,tlle linitcd Sales. The
commercial exhibits held in ronnec-
tion with the conference assemble
every piece of physical equipment at
ally time required "by a hospital.
while the non-commercial exhibits
feature the social and educational
side of the work. A hospital is no
longer a place where :01"; goes for
surgical operations alone. but dn
izlltitutlon which provides every con-
ceivable service for the recovery of
the sick. In its out~patient depart-
ment. a modern hospital renders a
social and educational service of
tremendous value to the community.

With the help of a few members of
the orchestra. particularly Miss An-
na E. Smith. and wit the generous
assistance of Mrs. eed Havtland.
he has raised considerably over half
of the necessary amount. Among the
contributors was Charles Harris. the

Her Innocent of All
Charges .
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—
Mrs Helen Elwood Stokes yes-
tel-day won her bitter five-year
fight against W. E. D. Stokes in
the second trial of his spectacu-
lar divbreegcase.
At 5 :05 p. m., the jury that
for four weeks had listened to
the tesImony of the aged with-
ing to establish that she had
been guilty with Edgar T. Wal-
lace, returned its verdict, finding
her innocent.
In pronouncing it the Jurors like-
wise acquitted hcr on the , fifteen
other points raised by her seventy—
three-year-old husband. These
charged her with misconduct at
other places than Vl'allace'e Hist
Thirty-fifth street apartment. and
with other men, among them. Hal
Billings and Will H. Meyers. .
Tears Come At Last-
Mrs. Stokes, who had been so
tenacious and as watchful as n. tig-
ress through the long smuggle.
yielded to her femininity when she
heard the verdict.
Tears were streaming down her
face. and her mouth was twisted in-
to an unsteady little smile when she
approached the Jury box and shook
the hand of every man in it.
Stokes. with the collar of his brown
sat. a solitary figure. at the distant
end of his counsel table.
The curious tightening smile that
had listened about his lips in Max
D. Steuer's argument in his behalf
had vanished.
The expectant liEht that had
flared up through his dull eyes in
Justice Mahoney's charge to the Jury
had been snuffed out.
All His Color ‘Gone.
He simply sat there alone and
motionless. with his big form half
sprawled across the table and all the
solar gone from his face and his
hands.
Mrs. Stokes did not look at him?
From the Jury she rushed to kiss:
her mother and shake the hands of
Samuel Untermyer and Isadore
Shapiro, her hard—working counsel.
Then she mounted the dies; and
thanked Justice Mahoney for his
conduct of the trial.
When' the courtroom was alnif‘st
emptied Mrs. Stokes sank into a
chair. buried her face into her
hands. ind gave way to weeping.
Her small. triq figure trembled.. and
she sobbed. scarcely‘audibly. how
"very. very. very tired" she Vvas.
Then quited. she said; -
"'I Just knew that it could not be
otherwise when I had done nothing
to deserve it. I knew that. some-
how. right must win. But it was so
long. and there were'so many, things
he might try to do. for he would
stop at nothing!“
