Hearing with tn. Teeth.

DR.. O. b. Thomas Of Philadelphia has
been making . study Of the various new
devices for helping the deaf to hear. All
Of them, he says. depend for their action
upon the principle OF acoustics that
solids vibrate In unison with the sound
waves produced In the air near them.
In these instruments the vibrations are
Of sufficient forcs to Be audible when
conveyed to the internal ear through the
medium OF the teeth and crauial bones,
Independently OF the ordinary channel
Of hearing. &c says that q simple and
excellent Instrument for the purpose
consists simply Of . rod Of hard wood
about two feet long and . quarter OF an
inch thick, one end OF which 10 placed
against the teeth Of the speaker, and the
other resting against or between the
teeth Of the person hard Of hearing. II
the speaker articulates In Q natural tone
OF voice. the vocal vibrations will be
transmitted In great volume through the
teeth and thence to the ears Of ths deaf
person. Il will also convey the voice
distinctly when placed against the fore
head or Other portions Of the skull Of the
nearer. 1t will also convey perfectly
audible speech from the skull Of one to
that Of the other, or such sounds may be
conveyed BY simply bringing the heads
themselves In contact. Again, instead
Of the speaker holding 1t against his
teeth. he may place It against the upper
part OF his chest, when. upon using his
voice. the sound will DO conveyed ~ be-
