New Instruments.—Duke Ap^^^jo describes a new form of vaginalirrigating-tube, which consists of an ordinary funnel, throughwhich a vulcanite or glass tube passes. The tube and apex of thefunnel are to be introduced into the vagina, after having been filledwith water, and are pressed firmly into the passage and held inclose contact with the vulva. The lavage is now administered in theusual way, the return current passing through the apex of thefunnel around the tube, finding its way out at the exit-pipe, on theside, to which tubing may be attached, leading to a vessel underthe bed.
