What reading level is The New Treatment of Snake-Bite, With Plain Directions for Injecting book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
on Tuesday. Kjposf- mortem was made.
" On examining the injured thumb, I could only find two punctures ; they looked such as would be inflicted by a pin and were about an eighth of an inch apart.— I remain, yours truly, " W. Langfoed, Eesident Surgeon." I think there can be very little doubt that this was a case of snake-bite, and I conceive the boy was past human aid before admission to the hospital.
Possibly, larger doses of ammonia by the syringe might have restored him ; at least, knowing w...hat I do now, nothing would prevent me from injecting a sufficient quantity to produce effects, perhaps the small quantity did prolong his life. Still, it must not be expected of any remedy to have power illimitable — that would be absurd ; and, as I said before, in this case it was possibly applied too late.
On considering aU that has gone before, it seems that ammonia roused and saved whenever it had been used within seven hours of the infliction of the bite. Instead of improving, all the cases had been getting worse under the old treatment, and the injection of ammonia was used as a dernier ressort, and not with much faith in its efficacy.
