Even' where there are two right. angled bends in the transparent instrument, the light rays travel down to the frosted tip and flood the wound with a cold, shadow- ~less light, however inaccessible -- the place may be. Blood does not easily congeal on the instrument, as it does with ordinary lighting apparatus. About 30 different instruments are available, but there are. three or four dual-purpose models which are quite sufficient for or- dinary diagnostic and surgical work in the field, +A set of these, together with a small electric ac- cumulator, costs about £12 and many surgeons in the fighting services-have bought them out of their own pockets, so useful have they proved in action.
