ERRORS OF THE RUPTURED Parents make a great mistake when they neglect for their suffering children immediate expert attention, and this particularly in cases of hernia This "policy of drift" is, of course, equally dangerous in the case of adult sufferers from rupture, for no matter how slight the case may be at the outset, the danger of strangulation of the intestines is ever present. An editorial note in the. Society Times of London says: " In these days people are disposed more and more to consult specialists instead of relying solely as heretofore on the skill of the medical practitioner; and they are right. It is only reasonable that the man who has given lifelong attention to one particular form of complaint should know more of its rational treatment than the man who spends his days in administering drugs to cure the thousand and one ailments that flesh is heir to. Perhaps in no way is the truth oi the foregoing more demonstrated than by the extraordinary success which ha? attended the efforts of Mr A W Martin, the eminent specialist in rup ture. Mr A W Martin may oe consultea at his rooms Samson's Bldgs.. Dowling street, daily. 10 to 12 noon 1 to 5 D.m Saturdays. 10 to 12 noon A booklet on rupture and its treatment posted free to sufferers.— 3/10A36
