Teeth Drawn By Electricity.

Boston people nowadays have their
supcriluous teeth drawn by electricity.
lnasmuch as all new ideas in tho arts
and sciences arc spread from this en-
lightcncd metropolis originally. and
from hence extend over the country,
there is litlc doubt that sooner or
later this new method viii supcrsedc
laughing gas and ether in other big
cities Of tho Union Tho process in
question is vN-y simple. scarce any
apparatus being required beyond an
ordinary two cell battery, with vibra-
tor attachment This attachment is q
thin strip Of metal fastened ut the
ends. which is made 10 vibratc thou
sand ar more times per second by the
electric current. AZ each vibration
the circuit is cut of and renewed
again. the effect being TO give per-
fectly steady How of tho mysterious
lluid. In order 10 make sure that the
flow is quite satisfactory, the operator
tunes tho machine-assisted by little
reed tuning pipe-until tho strip of
metal sings "A" So far, so good.
Now, 10 the battery arc attached three
wires Two of them have handles at.
the ends. and the third is hitched TO a
forceps. The patient in tho chair is
given handle to hold in each hand,
and the current is turned on gradually
until it becomes painful. Then he is
told To grasp the handles as strongly us
possible, the clectricity-having been
switched off for n momcnt-is turned
on again suddenly. and the dental
surgeon applies his foccps simulta-
ncOusly To the tooth. The instant the
inolar is touched, il. as well as the
parts surrounding. becomes electrified
and absolutely inscnsible To pain.
When il is withdrawn from the socket
the subject Of the operation feels not
the slightest disagrccablc sensation.

drops the electric handles and the
