Excerpt from The Australasian Medical Gazette, Vol. 26: The Journal of the Austalasian Branches of the British Medical Association; From January to December, 1905 When worked out, this gives us an average yield of grammes (865 grains) starch in the barley-water from two teaspoonfuls pearl barley. Every 100 parts by weight of barley yield an average of 31°l parts by weight of starch in the barley-water. Pearl barley contains about 78 per cent. Of its weight as starch, and, calculating from this, we find that 40 per cent. Of the total amount of starch in the original barley is extracted in the above process, and enters into the barley-water which is strained off for use. Two experiments were made with rice-water, using an exactly similar recipe. Two heaped teaspoonfuls weighed on an average 21 gm.

Excerpt from The Australasian Medical Gazette, Vol. 19: The Journal of the Australasian Branches of the British Medical Association; From January to December, 1900 Rockhampton, and the following year Dr. Patrick Smith made a presentation of 100 volumes. Further donations were made by Dr. Ryan, of Gympie, Dr. Moore, of Melbourne, and Mr. Bruck, of Sydney. Since then it has steadily been added to by the purchase of the most recent books in all branches of medicine, while the two Australian medical journals, and the leading ones of the old country, lie on the table for perusal. The library, which now contains several hundred volumes, is, in addition to our bank balance, our only asset, but we are pleased to look on it as a valuable one. It is true that had no library existed we should now have a fair amount in the bank earning a small yearly interest, but like good financiers, we preferred to put our surplus into real property that returns us interest tenfold.

Excerpt from The Australasian Medical Gazette, Vol. 17: The Journal of the Australasian Branches of the British Medical Association; From January to December, 1898 On the 15th July, 1897, under ether, I per formed a longitudinal incision, three inches long, in left semilunar line, with middle of incision crossing the umbilical equator. A cyst was found, which, after usual packing round with sponges, was aspirated and incised. We found it to be a sterile cyst, full of clear fluid spring ing from the lower surface Of the spleen. The endocyst was carefully removed, ectocyst syringed out with Boracic lotion, and the inner surface Of it well cleaned and dried with sponges. Another and independent cyst of the size of an egg was felt in the lower part of the abdominal cavity, but owing to the bad condition of patient, I did not think it advisable to proceed any further, and closed the wound, leaving the incision in the ectocyst free and unsutured. Patient made a good recovery, but had more temperature than the other cases. For the first three days she had a rise to and on the fourth day her temperature suddenly went to This alarmed me, but, remembering that it was a visitors' day, I searched her locker, and found a goodly store of biscuits and apples.

She was well nourished and healthy-looking, and was leaving the hospital apparently cured. The indication, however, was that she was still infested with hydatids and that her tissues were reacting to their presence. This indication coincides with the prognosis of the surgeon who anticipates a recurrence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
