    OPERATIVE SURGERY, To correct a misapprehension on the part of many, it should be understood that the A. T. Still Infirmary is fully prepared to receive and handle the most difficult cases requiring the highest order of skilled surgery, and it is not necessary to send such cases to the great city hospitals in the east for even the most difficult and delicate operations. Dr. J. B. Littlejohn, of the faculty, is a graduate in surgery from the University of Glasgow, Scctland, and held for three years the position of Surgeon under the Govern- ment Board of England, besides other important and re- sponsible positions in Europe and America. Dr. Wm. Smith holds evidences of qualifications as fol- lows: Licentiate of the Royal College of Surgery, Edin- burg; Licentiae of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, Glasgow; Licentiate in Midwifery, Edinburg and Glasgow; etc. * Cases requiring careful and delicate Surgery, the re- moval of fibroid tumors, and in fact any operation of what- ever nature will receive the best and most scientific treat- ment and care in this institution. The management has now secured a powerful and per- fect Roentgen or X-Ray apparatus which will be used in con- nection with this department, in the examination of difficult cases. Patients coming to the A. T. Still Infirmary may rely upon the fact that they will in no case be subjected to unnec- essary surgical operations, as the knife is never used unless absolutely necessary.
