personal aggrandizement must give way to those feelings which 
make every new fact, every advancement, the common property 
of the profession, upon which altar shall be laid for future, as 
well as the present generations, the first fruits of our lives. 
To conclude, gentlemen, as a body, and as individuals, let us 
ever refuse to bury our honor, our integrity, our manhood by de¬ 
scending to the level of those who have earned the opprobium of 
quacks in the ranks of the profession. 
A NEW ATOMIZER, 
A few months ago we called the attention of our readers to 
an apparatus invented by Dr. J. De Beer, of Boston, for the appli¬ 
cation of steam in fumigation of local parts, the extremities, the 
head, and even of general vapor bath, showing, therefore, how 
advantageous this little application was. 
To-day we take pleasure in saying a word of another invention 
of Dr. De Beer, for the antiseptic dressing of wounds. 
This atomizer is very simple, and so arranged that a powerful 
spray of antiseptic vapor can be used, and lasts two or three 
hours. 
In the dressing of large wounds, or of injuries of the foot, 
which generally require some length of time to be properly 
applied, the veterinarian who is desirous to employ the antiseptic 
dressing, will find this a most useful instrument.
