Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, 1898, Vol. 15 Now with these important symptoms we have a change in the pulse; we have the pulse Of peritonitis; it may not be increased much in rapidity, but its character is changed in a marked degree. And just here I would say that it is not the rapidity of the pulse upon which we lay stress, but upon the character ofthe pulse itself. We find the pulse hard, bounding, throbbing as it were, and one that it is impossible to compress or to make entirely disappear. We feel it jumping under the fingers as an unruly horse pulling against the bridle. The pulse rate may be very little increased, or it may run up very rapidly.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 15: April, 1877 A very correct idea of the operation is conveyed by the wood-cut, with the stem seen secured in position. The stem, as will be seen, is firmly and securely fixed in the cervix, and. Partakes of every movement of the uterus, and hence incapa ble of the independent movements and friction of the ordinary bulb stem such as now generally used. When the galvanic stem is not particularly desired, the instrument may be made entirely of copper - one plate instead of two being used, thus making it just half the bulk and weight. The instrument may be worn, for an indefinite time, without risk of damage or inconvenience to the patient. While using them I direct that, after a few days from the introduction, no check be put upon exercise, either on foot or horseback. The same precautions as to dress are applicable here as in the use of vaginal pessaries, that the uterus may not be forced upon the floor of the pelvis by the pressure of tight clothes or cor sets, and subje'cted to friction and concussions. The vaginal douche, of hot water, should be daily used while the pessary is worn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 13: March 1896 We will now consider the etiology of this, which is one of the most widespread of acute diseases. We find that of predisposing causes age ranks first. Prevailing at all ages, there are yet three marked periods: early childhood, then from twenty to forty years, and lastly in old age, of which it is the especial enemy; and according to Loomis, after the age of sixty, nine-tenths of the deaths from acute diseases are due to pneumonia. While catarrhal pneumonia is more common than croupous pneumonia in young children, yet the latter is also found in them, and, according to Loomis, it is five times more frequent in the first two years of existence than in the following eighteen. Males are more frequently affected than females, as being subject to more exposure, for in advanced age, when the conditions of living are more nearly the same, the proportion is about equal. Dwellers in cities, and especially in crowded and unhygienic surroundings, tthcse exposed to hardship and the vicissitudes of weather, are more lliable to the disease. Alcoholism is a most potent predisposing cause. Chronic dis eases, such as diabetes, Bright's and others, previous attacks of pneumonia; in short, all debilitating influences exercise a marked effect as predisposing causes. Pneumonia following blows on the chest, and other traumatism, is known as Contusion, or Trau matic Pneumonia, and the injury producing it is simply a pre disposing cause.
