    (2) when, before

    joining

    the

    regimlent,

    renlezivos,

    or

    post,

    the recruit is

    dis-

    186.

    All indelible

    or

    permanent marks

    of whatsoever

    character upon the

    person

    of

    the

    recruit,

    whether

    peculiar

    in

    themselves or

    not,

    should be record(ed

    on

    the cards,

    viz:

    Scars

    (including vaccination

    marks),

    moles,

    birthmarks

    and

    pigmentations, circumcisions,

    amputations or

    other

    losses

    of

    joints of

    fingers

    or

    toes, tattoo marks,

    (designating

    those that

    and valueless marks

    minute

    in size, when

    better marks

    are found

    in sufficient

    nnmber.

    187.

    A careful and

    systematic search

    of the

    body should

    be

    made, front

    and

    rear,

    on

    each

    side

    of the median line, sepa-

    rately,

    marks

    found will be recorded and described as indicated in

    paragraphs

    207, 208, and

    209.

    188. Cards

    showing

    less

    than five

    marks

    (in addition to vac-

    cination

    scars,

    tattooings,

    loss

    of

    teeth, and

    deformities)

    can

    not

    be relied upon in the effort to discover identity or to estab-

    lish it

    in

    suspected cases. Experience

    shows that as

    many as

    ten

    to

    fifteen marks may usually be found.

    189.

    If no marks be found upon the recruit,

    the

    fact should

    he stated upon both the

    front

    and

    back of

    the card; likewise,

    if

    marks are found upon the

    front

    and

    none

    upon the rear or

    vice versa, the entry "no marks"

    should

    be made upon

    the

    appropriate

    side

    of

    the

    card.

    190. The location

    of

    the mark and its characteristics, such

    as form and

    direction,

    upon

    the

    person of

    the

    recruit, should

    be

    indicated on the corresponding

    part of

    the figure, and

    a

    solid

    line should be drawn therefrom to the description

    in

    terms

    upon the fly

    leaf opposite.

    When this

    description

    is common

    to a

    number

    of marks

    it need not be repeated for each

    one,

    )ut the

    lines

    may converge to it. Care should be

    taken,

    how-

    ever,

    in

    grouping the

    descriptions

    on

    the

    card,

    that its

    legi-

    bility and clearness are not

    impaired;

    lines, for

    instance, should

    not

    cross

    each other when it

    can

    conveniently

    be

    avoided.

    191. The following

    details are called

    for

    in

    the description

    of

    marks

    and scars, etc., on the person of

    the

    recruit:

    (a)

    In the

    case

    of scars:

    (1) Their

    form or shape-rectilin-

    ear,

    curvilinear, undulating, oval,

    circular, oblong, squareo,

    V-shaped, L-shaped, T-shaped, etc.; (2) their inclination-

    horizontal,

    oblique,

    vertical;

    if

    curved,

    the direction

    of

    the

    concavity;

    (3) their approximate size in inches; (4)

    their char-

    acter-recent,

    faint,

    conspicuous, purple, puckered,

    or any

    other

    noteworthy

    feature;

    (5) their cause, if known-cuts,

    ioils, )urns, etc.

    (b) When scars are small

    and

    numerous,

    a

    description

    of

    one

    may be given,

    followed by the

    words

    "and

    many others

    ;"

    or the

    record

    may stand "''numeroussmall scars. "

    (c)

    In

    the

    case

    of moles,

    their

    approximate

    size

    in

    fractional

    parts of an inch,

    and

    whether raised, fiat,

    hairy,

    or

    hairless.

    When

    too smlall

    for ordinary

    measurement, how6ver,

    the entry

    P. m. for pinhead mole

    will

    be sufficient.

    it

    cause

    for rejection, but

    the

    applicant

    should

    be given an oppor-

    tunity to alter

    the design,

    in

    whichl event he

    MANUAL

    FOR

    TIHE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.

    (b)) In determining the color of the

    eyes,

    medical

    and

    recruiting

    officers will make use

    of

    the

    standard

    eye

    colors

    issued

    by the Surgeon General. The

    number

    of the standard

    eye

    color

    which most

    nearly

    corresponds

    with

    the

    eyes

    under

    examination

    will

    be

    recorded,

    as-brown,

    1st,

    2d,

    etc.; blue,

    7th,

    8th, etc. Note should

    also be

    made if the color is not

    the same in both

    eyes; if

    there is

    any

    peculiarity of

    pigmen-

    tation,

    as

    the

    presence of black

    or red spots in

    the general

    color;

    and

    also

    if there is any deviation from the normal cir-

    cular form of the pupils.

    194. As the height is relied

    upon

    as

    a

    basis

    in comparing

    the

    cards

    of

    recruits with the

    classified

    descriptions

    of

    former

    soldiers, and as

    this

    measurement

    may

    to a considerable

    degree be affected by deception

    on the

    part

    of the

    subject,

    great

    care

    in ascertaining it is

    specially

    enjoined.

    195. In

    the

    lower left-hand

    corner

    of the card will be noted

    the station where it is prepared

    and the date of preparation.

    196.

    The entries on the

    cards

    will be made with durable

    black

    ink, and

    not with

    copying

    ink.

    197. Outline-figure cards

    are

    required

    also for soldiers dis-

    charged dishonoral)ly or without honor. This record will be

    made

    from

    an examination of

    the

    man immediately

    prior to

    discharge (unless the discharge is followed by a period

    of

    con-

    finemnent at a

    military post);

    it

    will

    show

    the date and

    place

    of enlistment as in the case of recruit cards, and will

    cite

    the

    order for the

    discharge and

    the date

    upon which it

    is

    to

    take

    effect. When the dishonorable

    discharge is

    followed b)y a

    period of confinement at

    a

    military post, the

    card

    should

    be

    prepared

    about two

    weeks prior to the release

    of

    the

    prisoner;

    and in

    addition

    to the data above

    required, note should be

    made

    of

    the probable

    date of release. The card in these cases will

    immediately, upon completion,

    be forwarded to

    the

    Surgeon

    General. No letter of transmittal is required.

    ARTIFICIAL LIMBS.

    198.

    Application for

    an artificial limb or

    for

    its

    commuted

    value should be made by the claimant direct to the

    Surgeon

    General, War

    Department, Washington, D. C.

    ART.

    XIV. In

    naval

    wars any

    strong

    presumption that

    either

    belligerent takes advantage

    of the

    benefits of neutrality,

    with any other

    view

    than the

    interest

    of

    the sick

    and

    wounded,

    gives

    to the other

    belligerent,

    until

    proof

    to

    the

    contrary, the

    right of suspending

    the

    Convention, as regards such belligerent.

    Should this presumption become

    a

    certainty,

    notice

    may

    be

    given to such

    belligerent that

    the Convention

    is

    suspended

    with

    regard

    to

    him

    during

    the whole continuance of the war.

    ART. XV. The present Act shall be drawn up

    in

    a

    single

    original copy,

    which

    shall
