ture The vulcanite tube is filled with a
powder composed of plumbsgO. gas carbon
and silver, in a finely divided condition.
The electrical coDductivity of this mixture

connected 30 that the current passes through

only necessary to arrange a means of re-
cording these alterations in the current.
and this has been done in very IN
genIous manner. A wire helix of special
construction, forms part of the circuit and
into this soft iron cord is passed. free to-
move up or down. The position of the core
Is governed by the strength of the current

only necessary to place the little case in the

OF the temperature is thus obtained. AL

and the physician is therefore enabled to de-
termine upon diagnosis much sooner than
would otherwise be possible. The course of
the disease is permanently recorded, the
slightest modification varist5On caused bv

being revealed, and the effect of the latter
can be closely followed. Moreover. definite
instructions may be left with the nurse in
charge, who would be directed to watch the
indications and to be governed by it in the
use of remedies. The inventor bell ewes that
the instrument will also prove to be of great
service in the science of meteorology. for il
Will indicate and record the slightest changes
in the temperature of the air, and on ac-
count of its low cost, only abont $50 it can
