The Mysterious Restoration from
Deafness by an Unseen Device
Old Theories Successfully
Applied

During the past few years there have
been many rumors of the restoration, in
some mysterious way, of the hearing of
those who were known 10 have been
deaf for many years. This led to an In
vestigation by those interested, and it
has been found that this happy change
has been made by the use of most sim
pie, yet ingenious device. which was in
vented by a gentleman in Bridgeport,
Conn, named A III. Wales. This device
is the sane 10 the ears as are glasses TO
the eyes. and Is simply soft rubber disc.
arranged on a rubber spring. and so
shaped that when inserted in the ear IL
will focus the waves of sound on the
natural drum, thus increasing the yibra
tion of the latter.
The possibilities OF a device OF this ma
ture have long been known, but the
many attempts 10 use this knowledge
have been such utter failures that il was
considered beyond our present knowl-
edge or the ear to make practical in
strument of the kind. Consequently
when this device was first invented, not
much attention was given the same, as Ii
was thought to be merely an old enemy
in a new dress; but gradually this sight
prejudice was dispelled. until, at the
present time, most physicians and aurists
look kindly upon the instrument, and
seem pleased at the success it is meeting.
At a recent interview, Mr. Wales made
the remarkable statement that, to his
knowledge. the device which he calls
Sound Disc had never failed where re
lief was aflerward obtained by any
medical, surgical or mechanical means,
excepting apowerful ear trumpet, which
he says is more powerful than his de.
vice. 1t would seem to be an ideal de-
vice for the deaf, as Ii is worn in the ear
out of sight. for months at a time, and
as far as we can learn, is pronounced
safe and comfortable for the patient.
Many times it has proven itself to be an
advancement in the science of acoustics
by relieving the most obstinate cases
which had defied medical treatment for
years.
What may be the ultimate result of the
use OF this device whether the results
thus far obtained will warrant its use in
such variety of cases that 1t will stop
the progress of deafness in the future to
such an extent that 1t will avoid the use
of ear trumpets we ccnnot say, but the
desirability of device of this nature, as
regards its safety. its benefit, and gene.
raj comfort to the user, none will fail to
admit.
