A year ago Mr. A., fifty-one years old, consulted me for an oldstanding and intractable cystitis, as he supposed and had been informed by two physicians. I suggested an exploration and readily detected a stone. It was a large one, and it was so hard that you could hear the click of the instrument in any part of my office. I advised that he should have an operation performed, but as his brother had died after same operation a few years previously, he was afraid and refused to consent. In view to palliate, I ordered him to drink one quart of Buffalo Lithia Water every day. Washing out the bladder once a day with the same, warm, a careful attention to diet and bowels, with gentle tonics. This treatment was faithfully kept up for nine months, when pus appeared in the urine and the operation could no longer be delayed. During the time he was under the treatment, large quantities of débris came away, some of the pieces were so large that it was only by great effort that they were passed via urethra. None of these were saved. The day before the operation, on the twentieth day of June, I examined him again, and the stone did not seem so large nor was the click so pronounced, though we could tell that there was a stone present by the grating as from a rough body. On the twentyfirst, I did the left lateral operation, and after getting into the bladder, I introduced the forceps, grasped the stone and pulling it away I found it was like a mass of putty filled with sand. It was sacculated and there was a quantity of pus in the viscus. With forceps, gouge, curette and fingers I finally got it all away. No part of it was so hard but that it could not be crushed with very little effort between the fingers. After the fragments were allowed to dry they became hard. The cut will illustrate better than I could tell how some of the mass looked, though a great deal of the finest particles were lost in the irrigation. It will be noticed that there were very few large pieces, and these were so soft that they would drop to pieces on the slightest provocation. This friable quality showed me why I did not get so pronounced a sound at my second examination, nine months after the first. Had I known before I operated what I knew afterward, I would not have done it, but with a lithotrite I would have crushed it and washed it out, though I believe firmly that if I had continued the treatment of the Buffalo Lithia Water a few weeks more the stone would have fallen to pieces. The outer segments were roughened, showing the disintegrating action of the water in dissolving it. I believe the case is unique in every particular and shows the value of Buffalo Lithia Water so clearly that I thought it worth reporting. The patient made a complete recovery without an accident to mar it. The total weight of the pieces saved was 213 grains.-The Prescription. Other Clinical Reports and Descriptive Pamphlet sent free.

During the past seven years we have been laboring assiduously to produce Infant Foods ready for use that would closely resemble healthy human milk. It has not been an easy task, as every physician knows who has taken a special interest in the subject. We have spared neither labor nor expense to accomplish this object, which will be demonstrated to any Physician who will visit our factory. We have met the more recent demand for a sterilized Food for Infants by an expensive change in our machinery under the supervision of the most eminent Bacteriologists in the country. This sterilization has been accomplished without rendering the casein of the milk less digestible, as is invariably done with the patented sterilizers in use. We do not think it possible that any Infant Food will ever be prepared that will excel LACTO-PREPARATA (an all milk food) for the feeding of young infants, and CARNRICK'S FOOD for their nourishment during the latter part of the nursing period. All other Infant Foods in the market are composed entirely of the cereals; or they contain so little milk (about 8 per cent.) that it is a misnomer to call them Milk Foods. If such foods are used alone, the child will not be properly nourished, its flesh will be flabby, and it will quickly succumb to disease, because they are deficient in albuminoid constituents.

It is Kumyss in a dry form, containing all the constituents of the best Kumyss, and requires only the addition of water to produce an article superior in digestibility and palatability to the old form of Kumy88. It is the Ideal Food in all cases where nutrition is an important factor, and digestion is feeble. When all other Foods fail try Kumysgen, but it is better to try it in the beginning and save time and strength. Kumysgen is the only preparation of Kumys that will keep. All liquid preparations of Kumyss will keep but a short time, and are constantly changing in the bottle, unless some deleterious preservative is used. Kumyss made from Kumysgen is far more palatable, easier digested and 35 per cent. less expensive than the old style Kumyss. Our Syphon Kumysgen Bottles allow Kumyss to be drawn without loss of contents. One in every three bottles are syphons, containing same quantity of KÜмYSGEN as the others.
