}ect in view Of restoring health to the eye; :.
and anothcr similarly constructed, the end d
somewhat similar to the mouth-pieee of an Ct
ear-t1umpct, which Is used for the sole pur- et
pose Of acting energctically upon thei auric u
nerve. Besides these twcnty-four vessels,
there arc four others capable Of holding one sa
quart of fluid each, 10 which are attached b,
very elegant velvet tubes, which are to be az
used as inhalers, 50 mechanically arranged tc
tint the patient, once he places one Of them Pl
to his lips, must iullale The mcdcament Of the to
vessel to which the tube is attached pt
The pecullarit5 Of tlss> tubes rests in tho N
fact that the sufferer is compelled, however de
unaccustcmcd to their use, to breathe in the di
medicine. He cannot refuse to 1-cc,yn into nc
his throat and lungs portion of the rolasl. to
lied medicinal matter with which caeh vessel CT
l. charged. These machines have attached to D
them gauges or indicators, showinsh how much ir
the patient consumes ut each operation, thus ce
ernduatinE the necessary doses it may be con- n
siacred advisable to throw into tho system, or CT
externally on the eye or car. n
is, of course, understood that the vessels II
are charged With different and independent L
medicines, preparations not only for tho eye I
and ear, but for the head and nasal organ, the
throat, the chest and the lungs. Each is ap-
Piled according 10 the nature Of the disease
and the progress Of the patient towards COM
|
plcte restoration. It should be remembered
that the leading object oi the entire apparatus
is to purify and spiritualizc the medicines
used, 90 that they can bc prodtably, directly,
and cnergeticany employed. This fact alone
is worthy tho consideration Of the diseased.
Thcle Is yet another Instrument connected
| with the apparatus, to Which the Doctor has
given the name INSTRUMENTATION (irom i;
| the Greek metroo, measure and pneuad, !.
"the aIr'D This instrument, also primarily i
intended for measuring tho air capacity Of the I
| lungs, Is the invention Of Dr.. Won Eisenberg. c
By it he Is enabled to diagnose or examine
the chest OF lungs; and by It he arrives at IN I
exact knowledge Of the sounducss Of the res
plratory organs. =.
As to the entire apparatus, we have no
hesitation In saying that ne regard 1t as 7
wonderful invention-one that, were il not so |
costly, we hare little doubt, would be
adopted By every hospital aud medical col
lege in the country. We arc satisfied 1t would
repay, evcni II he had TO journey all the way
from Europe, the scientiHc man to see and
examine 1t. It Is marvel Of mechanical
completely, and yet, when Its multiform uses
are considered, of extreme simplicity and
great beauty. That 1t will in every respect
fulfil the expectations Of the inventor, VIC
have every reason to believe. It has been |
constructed with m. hecurate knowledge OF
its ultimate uses. One SO experienced ID the
snccia1ties for which It Is particularly intended
an is the Doctor, aud for which he has long
felt the necessity In his practice, could make
M failuse. With It he will be enable to SUR
t mount cbslac1es that were hitherto deemed
all but impossible to control. Hc can now
approach with certainty and diagnose thor
. ouehly every disease that in the course Of
his extended practice he aims 10 master. To
! those, therefore, who nre In any way afflicted
with loss Of sight OF hearing, with eatarrh,
