strong, Esq, Of Greenhead, to substitute Fellows
Hypophosphites in place Of using a blister, which
had been ecommende to restore her power of speak

MEDICAL STUDENTS will be pleased to learn
that the Faculty of the Louisville Medical
College louisville, Ky.,) now give three
complete courses Of lectures in seventeen
months, and so arrange their prices that a
student saves 1927 in his medical education,
and gains his third course of lectures; all
other colleges give in this time only two
courses. Beneficiary privileges are limited,
we see, to five per cent. of the class. Next
season begins October 1, 1878. Students
should at once apply as above for catalogues.

The Royal Library at Paris contains
a Chinese chart of the heavens made
about 600 B. c., in which 1,46O stars are
correctly inserted. Besides the Pekin
Gazette. the Government publish an an
nual calendar, in which the lucky and
~unlucky days are inserted, and what
may be done and what refrained on those
days. In their astronomy they divide
the zodiac into twelve signs and twenty
eight consultations; and time into
periods of sixty years, instead of our
centuries, and into revolutions of 10000
years, introduced by Laotse, 1900 B. c.,
and evidently referring to the revolution
of the line of Apsides, when the
Perihelion and Aphelion interchange
their positions. They were very ancient
topographers; we refer map making to
the fourteenth century; but there exists
a map of China made 1000 B. c., which
nearly accords with the actual surveys
made by the Jesuits in 100 B. C.

Saved by His Watch.

INOn IN buhsJ
Mr.. Sirenius Thompson, of Port Rich
ant to DIR. Jehl, dentist, at 225 Broad
way, for several months. In the labora-
tory he has shown particular ability,
and he has gradually been intrusted
with nearly all of the work done there.
Lately he has had entire charge of the
office, DIR. Jehl being in the country.
He has made sets of teeth according to
the method said to have been patented
by the Goodyear Rubber Company, of
this city. The measure of the mouth
| of the person to wear the teeth is taken.
Then a leaden mold is shaped accord
ing to this measure. India-rubber, made
soft and fesh-colored by a process
known only to the ~patentees, is put into
the mold. When it is taken out it has
assumed the desired form, butisstill soft.
Then porcelain teeth-not extracted
from the jawbones of corpses, as dentists
say is popularity believed-are imbedded
in the proper order. Next, the India
rubber is put into a brass retort, looking
much like a quart ice-cream churn, and
a gas Jet at the bottom is lit. A very
high degree of heat is thus produced,
and the India-rubber becomes hard and
not brittle, and firmly retains its setting
of teeth. India-rubber thus treated il
called by the ~patentees ~vulcanized rub,
Der. Mr.. Thompson beganto make a set Of
teeth in the laboratory, a small real
room in the third story, at about dusk
on Wednesday. Having arranged the
teeth in the bed of the rubber he put
the bed into the retort, lit the gas an6

thermometer in the lid of the rotor
closely, but did not see the mercury rise
Then he turned the cock of the ga
bracket so that the flow of gas would b.

direction. One of them struck Mr.
Thompson in the stomach, making {
long cash, and he fell. The contents O
the laboratory were widely scattered
and the glass in the doors of a cabine
and in the windows was powdered. Mr.
Thompson was taken to his room in tn
story below. His life was saved by hi
watch, a fine chronometer, inheritet
J from his father. The sharp edge of tn
piece of the retort that struck him pen
etrated the watch from case to case.
