BAGE SIX LATEST IN PAINLESS SURGERY Recent Discovery Enables Operation to Be Performed Without Ren- dering the Patient Unconscious. For many years, in fact, ever since anesthetics were brought into gen- eral use, one of the aims of surgical scientists has been the discovery of some method of operating painlessly without reudering the patient un- conscious by inhalations of ether or chloroform. According to the Lon- don Times, this desideratum is now an accomplished fact, a system based on the use of phenol having been successfully employed by the sur- geons at the chief military hospitals in Milan for some thousands of op- erations, among which were over 300 on the lungs, performed by Professor Bruschi of Como. The proposed line of incision is marked with phenol (carbolic arid) by dipping a steril- ized scalpel into this liquid, and using the back of the point of the scalpel as a marker. After the lapse of a few seconds, the scalpel is again dipped into the phenol, and the tis- sues are cut with & slow and gentle up-and-down movement similar to that used in sawing. What happens is that a film of phenol is formed on the blade when it is immersed, and this anesthetizes the tissues as they are out. Frequent dippings are nec- essary to maintain the film, which is rubbed off by contact with the tissues or washed away by blood. CHEAP AND WHOLESOME FOOD Consumption of Whale Meat Is.on In- crease—Canneries Already Estab- lished and More Building. il e 3 e L SR ST o s - S | A whale yields from three to Awelve tons of prime meat. The weight of the animal is usually reck- oned at a ton to the foot. Thus a §0-foot whale would weight 50 tons. More than 1,000 tons of whale meat were shipped to Boston last summer, frozen. It is economical be- cause the housewife gets all clear meat, without bone or gristle; there is no waste. On Barclay sound, in British Co- lumbia, there is a big whaling sta- tion, to which killed whales are towed. Bone and blubber are re- moved, and the meat, shipped to Pa- cific coast cities, is on sale within 24 hours after the killing. Other whaling stations are build- ing canneries. One concern at Vie- toria, B. (', in 1919 packed 40,000 cases of canned whale meat—A48 one- pound cans to a case. B S A A { | I [ } | i S ™ _»\SOMETHING TO CONCEAL.
