====Medicinal work and return to politics====
In 1910 he established a private clinic and a hospital specializing in [[gynecology]], in which poor women were treated free of charge. <ref name="vilnija"/> From 1910 to 1911 Domaševičius organized the publication of the magazine ''Visuomenė''. Domaševičius also wrote articles for the magazines ''Medicina ir gamta'' ("Medicine and Nature") and ''Darbo balsas'' ("The Voice of Work"). The articles related to medicine were not only practical but also intended as guides to fight various diseases such as [[rheumatism]], other women's diseases, as well as [[tuberculosis]] and [[cancer]]. The author also sought to draw attention to the fact that it is necessary for the state to introduce free treatment and that this activity should not be carried out by village healers, but by medical specialists. Domaševičius, being a [[polyglot]], was a popular and easily accessible doctor in Vilnius. In 1917 he participated in the [[Vilnius Conference]]. After the [[October Revolution]] in [[Russia]] in 1917, Domaševičius joined the Social Democratic movement again, and also was selected as the chairman of workers' council of the Naujoji Vilnia organization.<ref name="tau" /><ref name="vilnija" /><ref name="VLE" /><ref name="panevezio" />
