Foreign Bodies in the Nose.

A long-standing purulent discharge from one nostril oc-curring in a child is a pathognomonic sign of a foreign body in that situation. If the discharge is very offensive, then foreign body will be found to be porous, capable of absorbing and retaining fluids in its substance. The ordinary ozaena occurring in children invariably affects, before long, both nasal cavities.-Clinical Memoranda, Brand & Keith

Gastric Aphorisms - No. 2.

As an aid in distinguishing between appendicitis and cecum impaction it is interesting to note that in the former com-plete extension of the leg is painful, while the latter com-plete flexion of the leg on the abdomen causes pain. Clinical observations in many quarters tend to show the stomach does not entirely empty itself as promptly as here-tofore supposed. So that mere retention of five or six hours may indicate nothign more than a degree of atonicity.-Bell; Med. Herald.

Weather Temp.

Always in Order.

An over-excessive blood loss at the menstrual period, frequently leads to a considerable degree of Anemia, and an efficient hematinic is always in order. Pepto-Mangan (Gude) is not only efficient in the way of overcoming the anemic condition, but is also pleasant to take, free from irritant or disturbing action upon the digestion, and de-void of constipating effect.

Weather Temp.

Cold this morning Girls & Melba went went to school, with them I took her coson & walked down, Eugene was down to the gate a minutes, on this way home from Ayhur John has been doing chess all day. Grace went home with Eugene.

Shock.

Gray, discussing the prevention of shock, urges that the operation be performed as soon as the decision to operate is made. Useless delay in the matter is a potent cause of shock. Instruments must be sharp, and as little handling of tissues as possible should be done. As to the choice of an anesthetic, he favors ether by the open method. Chloroform, he says, is fast becoming obsolete. He urges a local anesthetic in every case where it is feasible.-Brit. Med. Journ.

Weather Temp.

Quite warm thawed all day Maudie & I went to Aplolier, John took a load of cats to Dr Piekering

The Significance of Jaundice.

"The appearance of jaundice, even with absence of any gen-eral disturbance, is always a warning to be cautious; it de-mands that its cause should be discovered, and that the patient be kept under observation, while a corresponding suitable diet and mode of life should be prescribed; for diseases of the bile passages that may appear of little importance may lead to serious disease of liver (acute atrophy), which, consider-ing the importance of the organ in the economy of the body, may be very dangerous."-Hoppe-Seyler; Med. Press.
