Among our American writers Prof. Franklin ranks high, and as an 
author he has contributed his share of the American classics. He has 
the rare faculty of teaching others how they, too, may become surgeons. 
His manner of imparting is clear and lucid. With this book in posses- 
sion no practitioner will need any other text-book on’ minor surgery. It 
is full and complete, and every bandage and dressing and instrument 
known or used is illustrated. It also contains full directions of how to: 
make post-mortem examinations, for which every doctor will thank 
him. If you have no work on minor surgery, you can do no better than 
to purchase this, which is fresh from the hands of a master-workman.— 
Clinical Review. 
The author’s large experience as an operator and as a teacher will 
insure this volume a kindly reception at the hands of his colleagues ; 
the knowledge that a book is based upon actual experience at the bed- 
side, embodying the results of extended personal observation, gives a 
peculiar emphasis to its teaching and secures a respectful hearing even 
from those who have good reasons for holding ‘views other than those 
advanced by the author Medical Counselor. 
After giving us just a little physiology, our good old friend strikes 
right out and gives us a thorough manual on bandaging, and we are 
glad to see, having the country doctor alws ays in our mind’s eye, that 
many of the old-fashioned, complicated modes of bandaging have been 
left out; the handkerchief system of Mayor (page 95) deserves recom- 
mendation, for “the handkerchief is found everywhere.”——Dr. Lihenthal. 
A MANUAL OF VENEREAL DISEASES. 
Being a Condensed Description of those Affections 
and the Homeceopathic Treatment. By E. C. FRANK- 
LIN, M. D., late Professor of Surgery in the Home- 
opathic Department of the University of Michigan;

plete Minor Surgery,” etc. Octavo. Price, $1.25.

The work is written clearly, the description of disease is “to the 
point,” the diagnostic symptoms cannot well be misunderstood, and the 
indications for the use of the remedies considered are selected with care 
and sound judgment.
