This air passage is composed of rings of cartilage or gristle. Two or three of these rings are divided. Then the tube is inserted into the orifice which has been made, and tied in its place. When an abscess is being formed, it is well to apply blisters if it is tardy in coming to a point. Some prefer the application of poultices.
