The MicrOphOne In Surgery.
New York Tribune.

The value of the microphOne in oper-
atoms for stone and other delicate sur
gical manipulations has just been shown
at the London University College. The
apparatus consisted of the usual feeble
battery with wires, connected with two
telephones running to different parts of
the room. The ordinary sound used in
operations for crushing the stone was
attached by wire to the circuit OF the
battery. Near the handle q piece of
carbon, such as is used by Prof. Hughes,
was carefully balanced and attached by
a delicate spring to the battery circuit.
When the end of the sound strikes
against the smallest piece of calculus,
the acoustic wave is transmitted along
the steel of the instrument to the car
bon, where it is transformed into cleo
trio vibrations, which are mu Siplied
through the telephone, so that the noise
becomes loud and unmistakable. The
carbon arrangement on the sound must
not be too delicate. nor the battery to O
strong; but with the microphone prop
erly adjusted, it was easy by trial to de-
tect the presence Of even a minute
fragment of unremoved calculus. The
carbon needed only to be fitted to the
probe, also, to detect bullets or frag-
ments Of bone. But while it is quite
possible for a skillful surgeon to make
himself absolutely certain by means Of
the microphone of what he was previ-
ously only morally convinced of, no
very remarkable results, at least in or
binary practice, are anticipated from
the use Of the instrument.

Mans Age.

Few men die of age. Almost all die
Of disappointment, passion. mental or
bodily toll, or accident The passions
kill men sometimes, even suddenly
The common expression choked with
passion, has little exaggeration in it ;.for
even though not suddenly fatal, strong
passions shorten life. Strong bodied
men often die young-weak men live
longer than the strong, for the strong
use their strength, and the weak have
none to use. The latter take care Of
themselves, the former do not. AS it il
with the body, SO it is with the mind
and temper. The strong are apt to
break, or, like the candle, to run; the
weak to burn out. The inferior ami
mails, which live temperate lives, have
generally their prescribed number of
years. The horse lives twenty-five; the
OK fifteen or twenty; the lion about
twenty; the dog ten or twelve: the rab-
bit eight; the guinea pig six or seven
years. These numbers all bear SINH
lar proportion TO the time the animal
takes to grow its full size. But man, Of
the animals, is one that seldom lives
this average. He ought to live hun
bred years, according to physical law,
for five times twenty are one hundred,
but instead Of that, he scarcely reaches
on an average four times his growing
period; the cat six times; the rabbit
eight times the standard of measure
ment. The reason is obvious-man is
not only the mos irregular and the
most Incorporate, but the most labori-
Gus and hard-worked Of all the animals.
He is also the most irritable of all ami
mails; and there is no reason to believe,
though we cannot tell what an animal
secretly feels, that, more than any 9TH
er animal, man cherishes wrath to keep
it warm, and consumes himself with the
| fire of his own secret reflection.
