One of the leading features of internal medicine, as taught and practiced in Germany at the present time, is the attention given to problems of digestion and metabolism. The advances in theoretical chemistry and their application to the studies in the physiology and pathology of nutrition have opened up most promising perspectives into the correlations of organs of the human body and have furthermore stimulated in Germany, in a most fruitful way, that art of healing which is based on scientific principles.<br><br>Our country has followed Germany very closely in the last ten years in this direction and indeed has taken an advanced independent attitude on many fundamental points.
