In the sulphocyanide test we are enabled to detect thepresence of thirty-three ten-millionths ofa gram of iron; dividing this number bythe weight of one molecule of iron, wefind that this apparently delicate test isunable to indicate a less number of mole-cules than 1,500,000,000,000,000.

The statement that the Roentgen rayswere to a certain extent valuable in thsirpower to enable the blind to see, hascaused considerable excitement and in-terest, and has made the blind patientlook forward to the renewal of his sightwith hope and longing.

That thisfeeling has been aroused in these unfor-tunate individuals is not to be wonderedat, and the question arises, what can bedone with this class of patients ?
