Porneiopathology : a popular treatise on venereal and other diseases of the male and female genital system : with remarks on impotence, onanism, sterility, piles, and gravel, and prescriptions for their treatment . all, keeping the-^ testicle constantly L j supported by means of a bag, truss, orsuspensory ban-dage, will subduethe disease in avery short time,without impairingthe functions of theimportant organconcerned. A hardness, how-ever, of the epididy-mis commonly re-mains and contin-ues during life, butrarely gives rise toany inconvenience,although this mayoften be remediedby compressing thetesticles with stripsof adhesive plaster,as seen in the cut.
