To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is our method ; at the extrem- ity of the stump we fasten weights, by means of wicker splints. These weights are gradually increased, until the former resistance is ob- tained. In this way we develop and strengthen the motor muscles of the stump, giving the am- putated limb power enough to carry and use the artificial one, which weighs much less than the training splints. "This treatment gives very satisfactory re- sults. The men who have lost a leg are given OF MAIMED SOLDIERS 63 an appar...atus and take walks regularly, which enables them to see how much they have gained in endurance. Forty of our men who have had limbs amputated take these walks eagerly, and recently they made an expedition of about f oui miles. " Physiotherapy and rational gymnastics un- questionably produce good results, but they are supplemented by the constant movements of the pupil during his work in the shop. If he had only the physiotherapic treatment, which puts the injured limb in motion at most half an hour each day, leaving it inactive the rest of the time, he would risk losing the im- provement obtained by the treatment.
