A reference handbook of the medical sciences, embracing the entire range of scientific and practical medicine and allied science . occlusion is nearly complete.

The mouthshould be thoroughly with a tooth brush,and rinsed with thirty-per-cent. alcohol. Asepsis.—\\hen it is considered tliat we encounterdiphtheria, pneumonia, syphilis, tuberculosis, pyo-genic cocci, and various otlier infections, the presenceof which may not be known to us even after weare through with the patient, it behooves the con-scientious surgeon to be as scrupulous in his as if he were opening tne brain or must not permit laxity on the part of his operatingroom organization, a thing prone to happen becausethe field cannot be sterihzed. It must be rememberedthat the patient is more or less immune to the organ-isms he harbors; yet infections introduced. Fio. 11,54.—.\uthors Instruments for Direct Laryngoscopy and Bronchoscopy. A, Laryngeal speculum; B, bronchoscope; tubeor insufflation of anesthetic shown at CC; C, laryngeal biting forceps; D, bronchoscopic forceps; £, bite block. The tube is fornsufflation of ether during esophagoscopy, gastroscopy, or direct laryngoscopy. The tube, CC, is used instead in bronchoscopy. n the larger bronchi are easy to find with the broncho-cope; but a relatively small intruder which fallsnto the lowest and smallest bronchus it can enter,dmost at the periphery of the lung, is often verylifEcult to find not only because of the smallnessif the bronchial branch, but because of the greatlumber of such branches. Therefore, the mostaccurate radiographic localization becomes of the;reatest aid. For this purpose the four greatestlids are: A lateral radiograph, triangulation fro
