The following is practically a literal translation
from the Russian taken from the manuscript of Fr.
Gedeon, priest-monk of the Alexandro-Nevsky Cathe
dral, Moscow, Russia, ^nd was written in Kodiak be
tween 1804 and 1807. It has never before appeared in
print.

TUMORS AND SWELLINGS
In this event, the bottoms of the
j feet are cut to the bone. As the
| bottoms of the feet commenced to
j heal, a strip of skin, one inch wide
and one and half inches long, was
| cut from the vertex of the scalp.
This caused severe bleeding, which
was checked by applying dried,
rotted spruce powder, raw halibut
or clay packs (glacier mud). These
remedies were considered the best
known astringents.
Naseau, caused by excessive
blood-letting in rude surgery or
acupuncture, cold rocks were placed
on the groin. The gall stone
operation is omitted, as it appears
to the writer to be propria qual
maribus.
Trachoma and conjunctivitis
neglected eye diseases, a bear bone
was whittled down to a fine point
and beginning at the outer edge
of the eye to the bridge of the
nose, above and below, barely
missing the eyeball, was pierced
to the bone, the cure being left
to nature. During this trying or
deal, the patient was given a
spruce limb, so as not to bite the
tongue.
Headaches, skin was pierced to
the bone, below the temple on the
affected side, and after bleeding
was dressed with down. (The
chukchees and camshadalls of Si
beria, used blue clay, glacier mud, j
as a dressing). Small veins were j
lifted and bled in severe cases.
Coughs and sore throats,.patients
were bled from under the tongue,
sublingual veins; stomach aches, j
from legs and arms. Bad blood j
was judged by its color, and was'
also taken as a prognosis of im-1
pending death.

Continually working for the »d
vancement of domestic electric re
frigeration, engineers of Frigidaire
Corporation have made it possible
for this General Motors subsidiary
this year to present a household
refrigerator with many refinements
and improvements, according to an
announcement by the local repre
sentative. Economy, efficiency and
beauty have been the guiding stars
of these engineers and as a result
the Frigidaire of today operates at
much lower cost, freezes more ice
cubes faster, has an interior and
exterior finish of durable white
porcelain-on-steel and provides
more shelf space than before.
