Gorden Edwards Finally Succeeds In
Getting Surgeons to Use His Dis
covery to Eiliminate Pain Is Old,
Long-Forgotten Formula Which
Had Long Been Cast Aside.
BY J. HERBERT DUCKWORTH.
NEW YORK, Oct. 3. He con
quered pain.
Will that talilot place Gordon Ed
wards' nanio Intho hall or famo?
Whilo thousands upon thousauds
.'iot wounded soldlois are writhing In
aRony Edwards has appeared on the
battlefield as an angel of morcy, with
a simple chemical solution he calls
Nlkalgln, which he has at last suc
ceeded in having war hospitals adopt
as a means of killing pain. He Is
now 'Jno of tlio groa war heroes.
Once a hospital orderly, Edwards has
jhad a long up-hill fight. It is the
v old story of the snubbed pioneer of
inventor at last coming into his own.
Edwards, now about 30, a gradu
ate of Stanford, worked a few years
as an electrical engineer. Later,
while orderly in a hospital, ho heard
doctors bemoaning the fact that there
was no perfect annsthetlc for dentist
ry. Ho determined to discover one.
He plunged Into the study of medi
cine. After a year's research he came
across a long-forgotten formula for
a solution that has remarkable anal-
geslc properties.
Almost Ii1ccloss.
Edwards came to New York, al
. most penniless, to go In for dentnl
anasthesla, and get back some of
his money. Then the war broke out.
Jr September, 1914, while In the
. Red Cross headquarters, ho saw his
chance to serve humanity by conquer
ing pain. Ho asked for a tryout at
the hospitals, but was brusquely
turned down everywhere.
Finally ho Interested Miss Anne
Morgan. With her letter of introduc
tion ho visited the Vanderbilt clinic.
There he was given oportunity to try
his solution on an old woman with
Kpainful leg ulcers that the physicians
,i, ; admitted were "a scandal to the pro
fession." Nlkalgln killed the pain.
Twenty-five other cases wero seccess
fully treated in the same way.
Encouraged, Edwards sailed for
Europe, lie offered his nnasthesia to
the French and lirltish governments.
He was treated as a patent medicine
fakir. Even the American hospital
at N'eullly turned him down. Sym
pathetic Americans in London and
Paris helped him with money. Ht
Started a producing laboratory In
England and sent nlkalgln free to the
hospitals. A few surgeons tried It
and asked for more.
Killed the Lockjaw.
Fjiiiallya famous Japanese bacteri
ologist in a Paris hospilal wrote that
he had verified llie antiseptic proper
ties of nlkalgln. It killed the germs
of streptoccl. staphyloccl and lockjaw.
But France would not lake It up.
Again Anne .Morgan came to the
rescue. She got Edwards a hearing
with the Second army in Verdun.
Nlkaygln was -.used on a poor sol
dier whose whole front had been
burned out wifli German flaming
fire. Excruciating pain prevented
tlressing the wounds. The bandages
,wero saturated with nlkalgln and
painlessly removed. The. surgeons
regarded this as a miracle.
Now Edwards cannot make nlkal
gln fast enough. Thousands of gal
lons are used monthly In Trance.
have been saved because sur
geuii.yhave been enabled to treat
wounds otherwise too painful to be
dressed. Edwards and his support
ers foresee a new era. the painless
era.
' 1m a Ite-Klscovi'iy.
Tim man who first gave Kdwards
a chance at tho Vanderbilt clinic Is
Dr. John C. Vaugbau, now on the
Burgh al staff at Hellevuc hospital.
"I remember Edwards well," said
Dr. Vaughun today. "Ills solution
. Is not new. It is quinine urea. Hut
too much credit cannot be given Kd
wards for re-discovering this forgot
ten aiiathetic and applying It for
the first time to open wounds.
Qnlnlne-urea, or nlkalgin, is a re-
Temarkablc compound. It Is both an
. Bnasthotlc anil an antiseptic. It both
ilmlnates pain and heals the wound
' "Edwards deserves the thanks of
all suffering humanity, and especially
of the wounded soldiers of the allied
armies."
