Codman & Shurtleff, Boston, Mass. One Case Surgical Instruments and Atomizers. * * "The Committee have no hesitation in awarding for this superb exhibition the highest premium. The various other instruments for Inhalation of Atomized Liquids, and for Local Anaesthesia, were all apparently faultless, both in design and workmanship. The exhibitors are regarded as more especially deserving of the highest token of merit for having produced nothing except of their own manufacture.-Gold Medal. [Signed] GILMAN KIMBALL, M D., Chairman" The following is an extract from a note from Dr. Bigelow: "I have thus far found nothing better for freezing with Rhigolone than the tubes made by you after the pattern I gave you, and which I still use with your other apparatus." Dr. J. Mason Warren says: "Your apparatus for Atomization of Liquids seems to have been carefully made, and I think it an efficient one where required for treatment of diseases of the Throat and Lungs.

(*) Je-17 PATENT IMPROVED ABDOMINAL SUPPORTER The object of this invention is to provide for a prolapsed condition of the abdomen; a healthful and properly distributed support to all internal organs, capable of nice and ready adaptation to the changing condition of the patient. They are adapted to neatly fit and surround the person of the patient and occupy only so much surface of the hips and back as to afford an adequate counterbearing to the downward and outward stress of the abdomen. The ultimate support or counter-bearing is thus made to devolve on the parts immediately overlaying the side and posterior parts of pelvis, innominati and pelvis. They are made in two different forms. One a short supporter, loops supplying the place of ths drawers. The other is made in the form of ladies drawers. Eitherfform of these supporters may be worn by the patient, either erect or reclining, without obstructing any vital function. They are made of any woven fabric, such as muslin, India twill, linen or silk, and can be washed as any other customary garment. Description of the Plate PLATE No. 1 represents a front view of the Supporter, made in the form of drawers. EEE are stays; one or more in number as the case requires. G-a series of cords of greater or less number according to the wants of the patient-are so encased in the Supporters that the lowest one follows, or nearly follows, the contour of the base of the abdomen, and the others range parallel or nearly parallel thereto; these cords are severally drawn tight or relaxed at will, and are retained to a given tension by being knotted where they emerge from the Supporter. DIRECTIONS FOR TAKING MEASURES.-1st. Pass a tape measure entirely around the person, across the side or nameless bones. 2d. Across the abdomen, slightly anterior from one hip bone to the other. 3d. Across the front bone. 4th. From the top of front bone up to the navel. 5th. Top of hip bone around the limb to same point. 6th. From the top of the ospubis or front bone, between the limbs, up the center of the back as high as top of the side bones. 7th. Top of hip bone, outside the limb, down to the knee. Four measures for the short supporters, seven for the drawers. Address Post Office drawer 127, Louisville, Ky., Or, No. 34 Upper Third street, New Albany, Ind. mar-ly |
