in use, but amusement was caused

power garden cultivators. This group

TAKE A TIP
1. To Make a clean cut through the
meringue ori a pie, use a sharp knife
which has been dipped in hot water.
The meringue will stay high instead
of beinK crushed.
2. A wooden spoon is very 'useful
for handling clothes which have to
be washed in very hot water. Use it
'to stir the suds, to work tete clothes
up and down and to remove them
from the bot Water,
3. Instead of washing the rolling
pin after each use, scrape off the
excess flora' and put it back into the
flour bin—it won't stick to the next
dough you roll Out.
When there is ple crust left over,
it's a good idea to roll it out, slip a
piece of wax paper under it and one
over it. Roll it into a tube shape and
store in the refrigerator. This takes
little space in the electric refrigerator
and it can be used without getting
out the rolling pin and board again.
(Be sure to take it out and leave at
room temperature for 20 minutes be-
fore fitting into pie plate.)

Major Mustard -Finds
New Surgery Method.
The following article from the.
Toronto Evening Telegram refers to
Major W. T. Mustard, son of, Mrs.
1'Iustard and the late Thornton Must-
ard of Toronto, and his grandparents
were the late Mr, and Mrs. Alex.
Mustard of Brucefield.
A young Canadian doctor working
in a Canadian casualty clearing sta-
tion almost on the border of Belgium
and Holland has feund a new method
of surgery that will save the limbs
of- untold members of soldiers fight-
ing on this front when the innova-
tion becomes known.
Thirty-year-old Major W. T. Mus-
tard, of Toronto, who looks like a
college student, already has saved
the shell -shattered legs of Private
E. 0. Brewer, of Fredericton and
Captain Graham Dixon, a British
officer.
If luck had not brought these two
leen to a Canadian field surgical
unit housed fon' the moment in a bat-
tered baronial mansion near a Flem-
ish town. they would both probably
face the future with one leg.
"Exciting" is the word the young
betel, uses to describe the discovery
and it was exciting to stand in the
makeshift operating room, its win-
dows shaking from a bombardmetlt,
and hear the story- for the first time
of the first completely successful
operation performed a few weeks
ago.
Working with this teannnate, Capt.
Ken Wilson, of Ottawa, Maj. Must-
ard has successfully inserted glass
tubing to replace a shattered piece of
an artery and in this way maintained
a normal blood supply to the wound-
ed leg. Normally the artery would
have 'been tied to prevent bleeding
to .death and the limb eventually
would have had to be amputated
"The use of glass tubes' to replace
arteries has been demonstrated in
animals," the major` said, "hot as far.
'as we know this is the first time it•
has been clone in humans."
The first operation was performed
a few weeks ago on a'prlsoner of war
whose leg was alnnost completely
shot off, The medical officer re-
placed the:severed artery 1t'th a
glass tube but the blood clotted 111
the long tube after a few hours and
thee leg had to be amputated,
Then as now, Dr, Mustard was
working with makeshift surgical in-
stiunnents, using glass tubes he made
himself. "Nobody believed my opera-
tion would work," he said, "I
couldn't get; equipment. It took
weeks to get the necessary drugs."
When lie got the drug he,requirett
heparin, he had won. a "fight and.
Solved his greatest problem. Heparin,
which prevents blood clotting, was
discovered sonetitne ago but first
used for arterial surgery by Dr..
Gordon Murray, of Toronto.
With this drug, Maj, Mustard
could place a glass tube in a severed
artery and the blood would continue
to flow normally and the leg would
be saved
"The secret of the operation of
placing a. tube in the artery is so
simple it is fantastic" he said, 'The`
operation tau be performed in half
an hour. People we get here close to
the front line are the worst cases.
Dien are nearly dead when brought
in through loss of blood. Our first
job is to save their lives and the
operation must be simple and easy."
The first successful operation was
on Capt. Dixon, brought to the unit
with ani artery in his right leg
slashed high in the thigh and badly
mangled below the knee,
"The captain had lost so much
blood he was nearly dead," Maj.
Mustard continued, "His foot was
cold and White, He couldn't Have
stood a lengthy operation. We put
in tubes and the blood started to
flow.
"Using heparin to keep the blood
stowing, we left in the tubes until
the captain was in condition to staled
an operation. We removed the tubes.
replaced the shattered piece of the
artery with a graft from a vein. We
had some bad moments )until the
vein settled down and we know it
will now assume the characteristics
of an artery. The operation took
more than two hours. The man could
never have stood. it at first."
Five clays later the Scottish cap-
tain' was in good spirits and joked
with us as we stood beside the bed,
where the bottle of heparin was still
flowing into the veins. In the next
bed Pte. Brewer also was on the road
to recovery.
