Leading Practitioners Washington. Mhv 8.-Two kinds of operation ara proving effective in the treatment of tuberculosis, according to Dr. Edward Archibald of Montreal, who read a paper on pulmonary sur gery before tho Clinical Section of tho Natiodal Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculins here today. The first method explained by Dr. Archibald alms to produce a'collapse of tbe affected lung through compres sion, effected hy introducing into thc chest cavity outside of the lung a cor. tain -amount of nitrogen gas. By moans of this compression, the tuberculosis lung, bftrtg set at rest and. prevented from Hiing ita natural function, ls] moro readily healed than it could be; ' under normal conditions. Tlv second method which he advo catad waa tho rombval >f the .rita, or : portions ot them, so. that atmos pheric pressure may act:,upon ?the lung through thc soft yielding.struc ture o? thoracic muscles, .or that th.? ribs way be allowed to fall tn Upon the lung beneath and so exercise compression. In either case the move- j mani., of hr^athir.g ari abolished,, and ] tu*- '.ung ls put out of function. Of course, he said, such operation s . were of value usually only In casos j A here ono lung was affected, the oth er remaining practically sound, ii ?aid that Uio-Gorman and French.phy Ploiar.} liad reported good results In using the second method. "Groat caro must bo liku, however," ita added, "in either method to treat only those cases where X-ray examination and other tosta have shown before hand that good moy res?lt, slnnc such opera tlfinr. ure fraught with groat dpngrir."
