الصفحة 13 - But after some time an obscure disc appears upon the beam, the darkness of which increases, until finally, towards the end of the expiration, the beam is, as it were, pierced by an intensely black hole, in which no particles whatever can be discerned. The air, in fact, has so lodged its dirt within the lungs as to render the last portions of the expired breath absolutely free from suspended matter.
الصفحة 400 - Never give quinine in antipyretic doses in cases where the bowels are confined and the secretion of urine is scanty. 2. In cases where it is being administered, and an increase of dose is desirable, this may be safely done if the skin, bowels, and kidneys maintain their normal functional activity. 3. In many cases of remittent and intermittent fevers, the combination of the drug with chloride of ammonium, or a salt of potash or soda, is likely to be more easily tolerated as well as more useful than...
الصفحة 10 - ... as surely as the fig comes from the fig, the grape from the grape, the thorn from the thorn, so surely does the typhoid virus increase and multiply into typhoid fever, the scarlatina virus into scarlatina, the small-pox virus into small-pox. What is the conclusion that suggests itself here ? It is this : That the thing which we vaguely call a virus is to all intents and purposes a seed...
الصفحة 255 - In this membrane there were several pure blood coagula from the size of a pea up to that of a small walnut. The pia mater was not adherent (though in two or three senile cases I have found it to be so), the ventricles were granulated, and there was much general atrophy. There was hypertrophy of the muscular substance of the heart and aortic incompetence. The following is a case of transient senile mania recovered from : AG, fet.
الصفحة 28 - Curious things are anteflexion pessaries. In regard to their giving relief I express no opinion, but I do say that if they give relief it is not by undoing the flexion, and keeping it undone keeping the womb straight. I have seen most kinds of anteflexion pessaries as placed by their inventors, and too often replaced and replaced, but I have never seen one materially modify the flexion. I have myself never used one, and have no intention of doing so. There is another bad and too common practice which...
الصفحة 165 - North, in a graphic manner, says, when speaking of a period after he was decidedly affected by looking at the disc, " I was not unconscious, but I seemed to exist in duplicate. My inner self appeared to be thoroughly alive to all that was going on, but made up its mind not to control or interfere with the acts of the outer self ; and the unwillingness or inability of the inner self to control the outer seemed to increase the longer the condition was maintained.
الصفحة 414 - Extraction with such an instrument can not be made without loss of power and mis-direction of power, unless the handles have a compensation curve (perineal curve of Johnstone, Morales, Hubert, and Aveling). 3. The addition to the blades by a joint or hinge of compensationally curved tractionrods gives the possibility of correct axis-traction, while the change impressed on the direction of the fixed application-handles affords an index to the operator as to the line in which at any moment he ought...
الصفحة 252 - ... certain law of nervous heredity, that the stronger the predisposition the sooner it manifests itself in life, and the weaker it is the later in life it shows itself. To have survived, therefore, the changes and chances, the crises and perils of life with intact mental function till after sixty, means slight neurotic heredity or great absence of exciting causes of disease.
الصفحة 252 - ... there being more resistance along the conducting fibres. In the young man there is an organic craving for action, which, not being gratified, there results organic discomfort ; in the old man there is an organic craving for rest, and not to gratify that causes organic uneasiness.
الصفحة 161 - ... constellation Orion. After looking fixedly at this for what seemed to me a very long time, the idea of the constellation vanished, and its place was taken by the outline of the lower part of the face of a friend. All I could see was his beard and mouth and part of his nose and one cheek, the rest was abrubtly cut off by a broad, black area ; the details were tolerably vivid.
