Why is there no string of let‘ers sigâ€" nifying awards and honors from uniâ€" versities and medical bodies? _ The: reason seems to haye been suggested by Dr. Lockwood. The man was z" genius, and was unappreciated. Later on when the fact of his genius was | acknowledged, he was so well esub-f lished that the learned ibodies might AMave felt selfâ€"conscious in making a conspicuously _ belated acknowledgâ€" | ment of the fact to which they had been blind. L. hi In the matter of aseptic surgery, Groves preceded Lis‘er. In 1874, he had the extraordinary foresight to boil everythingâ€"sheets, towels, gauze and instruments that were to be usâ€" ed in the operation. He scrubbed his own hands and arms for 20 minutes wiih soap and boiled water and from the very outset of his practice demâ€" _onstrated that the soâ€"called laudable pus was unnecessary, that peritonâ€" itis and infected wounds could be avoided by his method. Many years before surgical gloves were invented he boiled ordinary _ rubber driving gloves and was convinced they pre ’!a no record of the appendix itself having been removed.

Surely these two great surgical feats should ; have won Aim world acclaim, but as | so unfortunately is often the case, it mérked him for abuse as being too radical." I llar operations had been carried out in England, but they were for drainâ€" age of an appendix abscess and there sober truth, he is one of the greatest surgeons ever to have been developâ€" ed in America. Let us quote from the eloquent Foreword of Dr. A. L. Lockâ€" wood, of Toronto. "The great Lister himself never performed an abdominal operation yet on May 10th, 1883, Dr. Groves opâ€" erated and removed an appendix sucâ€" cessfully, the first operation of its kind on this continent.

Dr. Groves himself does not seem astonâ€" ished at anything he has done, even in retrospect. As a country doctor, he had to do the work now confided to a tribe of specialists.
