The bestpart of the practice is always to save the patient, even at the expense of fine accompanying illustration explains the manner of using irrigation of the apparatus is suitable for places of public treatment of the sick. In private prac-tice the syringe would take the place of the irrigating apparatus. The irrigation is accomplished by means of a soft rubber tube F, one meter inlength and of suitable size to be introduced into the rectum, in front of the promontoryof the sacrum, into and up through the sigmoid flexure and into the descending tube which is connected with a glass reservoir E, should not be too small nor too. (Dr. Lees apparatus for irrigating the intestines for the cure of cholera and other bowel first in St. Petersburgh during the cholera epidemic of 1802.) large in order to facilitate its introduction through the folds of the sigmoid portion of thelower bowel. In fact, the greatest difficulty to be encountered, is to successfully pass thetube in front of the promontory of the sacrum, and enter into the sigmoid flexure. Thetube should be of proper firmness to prevent it from bending or buckling upon itselfwhen the end (which in all cases should be rounded) comes in contact with the obstruct-ing folds of the intestine. i*3 For internal treatment my experience taught me that the medicinal Peroxide of Hy-of Marchatid*, given in cupful doses of the strength of 4 per cent., or even muchstronger, was a better antiseptic than any other drug heretofore known in the treatmento
