    who disputes the efficacy of electrolysis in urethral strictures, I will swear by it every time; for facts are stubborn things that cannot be ignored, and have been proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, under my own observation and in my oion person. I am satisfied that, to accomplish the best results from electrolysis in urethral stricture, the seances ought not to be very close to- gether. I should say two weeks, unless circumstances were such that the pa- tient could not be gotten at at pleas- ure.” It will be seen that I withhold the gentleman’s name, but the case can be vouched for by Prof.Shoemaker,of Phila- delphia, and if Dr. Keyes is still inves- tigating, and would like to see a Simon pure case in the person of a most accomplished physician of large exper- ience, and wants to get at bottom facts, I shall be only too glad to furnish the name and address to him. W. C. Wile, M. D. Danbury, Conn., Nov. 26, 1888. An abundance of more evidence is on file. 68 W. 36th st., New York, Dec., 1888.
