Page 10 - ... the attitude of mind of the old Scotch shoemaker who, in response to the Dominie's suggestions about the weightier matters of life, asked: ' D'ye ken leather ? ' But every special branch carries with it the corrective of this most fatal tendency.
Page 9 - How frequently are we consulted by sucklings in our ranks as to the most likely branch in which to succeed, or a student, with the brazen assurance which only ignorance can give, announces that he intends to be a gynaecologist or an oculist. No more dangerous members of our profession exist than those born into it, so to speak, as specialists. Without any broad foundation in physiology or pathology, and ignorant of the great processes of disease...
Page 79 - Loeffler bacillus alighting upon the faucial or other mucous surface, or the skin denuded of its epidermis, obtains a nidus favorable for its development and propagation, but it does not enter the interior of the system...
Page 237 - That the heart murmurs are haemic in the largest number of cases. (3) That the successful treatment would seem to exclude latent or apparent rheumatism. (4) That anaemia and chlorosis are well marked in nearly all cases. (5) That nerve impoverishment is by far the most potent factor.
Page 125 - ... foetus, still inclosed in its membranes. With rigid antiseptic precautions, some blood from the heart, some pulmonary tissue, and some fluid expressed from the spleen were taken from the foetus.

Comparative observations upon eight other foetuses, of non-typhoid mothers, demonstrated the absence of...
