Prof, Bier, of Berlin, Ger., has de-
vised a new and remarkable anaes-
thetic treatment for use in operations
upon the extremities of the human
body. By the application of thistreat-
ment, which is described as a venous
transfusion, surgeons who must oper-
ate upon the legs or arms will no
longer need to administer general
anaesthesia for the purpose of render-
ing the patient unconscious, but will
be able to work in a perfectly blood-
less and painless area, while the mind
and the rest of the patient's body re-
tain an entirely normal state. Thus
the surgeons will be able to talk poli-
tics or crack jokes with the patient,
who will be totally unaware of any-
thing being done to hirn. Tho profes-
sor employs for bis vario'aa transfu-
sions a very weak solution of cocaine.
The cocaine slowly finds its way into
all the veins of the affected area,
which has previously been blocked off
by tight bandages above and below,
and the operation proceeds in a region
totally freed from blood and pain.

Meeting of County Board.
The Board of Examiners for the

Saturday, August 20th. There were

of the Education Department, County
Boards have now no authority to
