Still, any eontrl outjon to medical science is news for a long time. In brief, the fol lowing reports of the convention seem to me of most impor tance: The use of an abdominal belt to relieve the breathless, ness and wheez ing of elderly people who have the disease known as “emphysema”. Delayed operation in appendicitis was discussed, and it was suggested that frequently it gives better results than early operation. The new disease, agranulocytic an gina, and its cause—" Those who are habitual users of sleeping powders, tablets, or drugs of *this order, seem to be those mostly affected.” The treatment of eczema in child hood by carefully planned diets, local treatment and X-rays.
