Joulin has proved experimentally that manual tractions with the for.

THE FORCEPS. 65 Apparatus of Pros de la RocJielle.—Pros is also a partisan of mechani-cal traction, and uses tlie following apparatus, (Fig- ^5), consisting of: 1. A movable shelf, to be placed on a bed or a table, on which thewoman lies, and allowing of different positions. It is inchesin dimensions. 2. Bracelets, not indispensable, for holding the woman in place. 3. A movable rod, 21 to 26 inches long, articulating with the movable, it allows the accoucheur to make traction on theforceps with almost mathematical precision in the axis of the strait, evenwhere the pelvis is oblique or oval. The attached handle has simply tobe depressed in a half circle to exert a force of 58 to 3
