    chapter on Affections of the Vulva. I would wish to say in reply to some criticisms, to the effect that the observations I have made on the use of pessaries are hardly in keeping with the figuring and description of several varieties of these, that this manual being intended to aid the student as a text-book for his examinations, I deemed it necessary to introduce such descriptions; but I have been careful to expressly state the conditions under which I advise sup- ports, and the precautions to be taken in using those which I specially recommend. I have to express my obligations to Messrs. Arnold and Sons for special blocks of instruments prepared for me for the chapters on Ovariotomy and Operations on Urinary Fistula?; to Messrs. Mayer and Meltzer for several special engravings executed for this edition. I have already ac- knowledged my indebtedness to Messrs. Maw, Son, and Thompson, and Messrs. Krohne and Seseman for a like courtesy. Iu conclusion, I may be permitted to express the gratifi- cation which the reception of the previous editions of this work has afforded me, and trust that the passage through the press of three large editions in as many years has proved that the book has been found 'useful as a safe guide in practice by the practitioner, and an assistance in the study of this branch of the profession by the student.' 141, Hablet Street, W.
