RED CORPUSCLES JELLY
FOR TREATING WAR WOUNDS (Recd. 9.30 p.m.) New York, Feb. 14. Red corpuscles, forming at least half the blood donated and previously discarded as waste, can be used to treat wounds, according to the American Journal of Surgery. The corpuscles in a semi-liquid jelly, smeared on the surface of wounds or poured into deep wounds, surprisingly speeded up healing. They will be invaluable in treating war and other casualties if the initial successes are substantiated.
