TO LOCATE BULLETS.
The Greatest Surgical Discovery
of the Century.
The Human Body Used as n Conductor
by AN Electric Probe Which Works ON
Principles Akin to Those OF
the Telephone.


The development of electrical sci
ence in recent years has done much
to revolutionize medical and sur
gical methods. 1t viii therefore not
surprise many people to learn that
1t has stepped in to supplant the
Nelaton probe. But it will surprise
even electrical men to learn OF the abb
solute uniqueness of the method by
which this has been accomplished.
The Nelaton probe was named after
the great French surgeon who invented
it. He was called in TO treat Garibaldi,
who had bullet in his body. Nelaton
was unable to locate it and the Italian
patriots life was despaired Of Neiaton
sat up one whole night thinking.
1t finally occurred to him to use an
ordinary probe with Il smooth, round
piece OF porcelain ON the end, by in
serting it in the wound he hoped to get
the lead markings on the white piece
of porcelain, showing where the bullet
lay.
To think was to net, and on the next
day the experiment was tried. Sure
enough, when the probe was inserted
and removed lead markings were found
on the bulb of the probe. The bullet
was located and Garibaldi was saved.
The new probe is an electrical affair
1t consists Of an ordinary telephone
receiver, an ordinary metal probe
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-02-21

and an extra bulb of the same metal
that the probe is made of. lnasmuch
as there is no battery connected with
the apparatus, it may puzzle even an
electrician to discover wherein the
electrical element lies. Just here IS
where the instrument assumes its truly
scientific aspect, for it's invention
proves that there is definite quantity
of electricity in the body which may
be utilized for practical purposes In
short, the human body is the battery
which supplies the current.
The discovery by Dr. John H. Gira-
ner, of New York, was almost as dra
lnatic as that of the Nelaton probe.
DR. Girdner had tried for years to de-
wise some surer means Of locating bul.
lets than was possible with the ordi-
nary probe Some years ago some
body had invented an electric bullet
probe which depended on a battery
cell to supply the current, But the
trouble was that as soon as the end Of
the probe was inserted in the flesh an
electric circuit would be established
through the flesh itself, and the elec.
fric bell would ring.
So it was not known whether a bul.
Jet had been touched or not. One
night it occurred to DR.. -Girdner that
the body itself might contain enough
of current to operate bell or a tele-
phone receiver Experiment proved
the fact and the difficulty was over.
come
The principle Of the instrument is
as follows: The metal bulb is placed
In the wounded perstn's mouth the
telephone receiver is held to the sur
geon's ear and the probe in the hole
made by the bullet. The bulb in the
mouth and the probe are made of the
same metal, copper being preferred:
and because they are the same no man
Hesitation is heard in the telephone.
But as soon as the leaden bullet is
touched it brings another metal into
the circuit. The human body then i'm
mediately becomes one immense cell,
enough to operate the telephone, so
that as soon as the bullet is touched
click is heard in the telephone, and the
location of the bullet is established be-
yond a doubt.
The invention Of this instrument has
created quite furor among surgeons,
1t has been adopted as a standard in
the United States army and navy. The
surgeon general of the army and the
surgeon general Of the navy instituted
a commission, the result OF whose ex-
periments was the report that the prin.
ciple of the instrument was the only
one that should be recognized by mill
tary surgical men. Dr.. Stephen Smith,
we'll known in army circles, said it was
1.-THE greatest advance that had been

clan, says it bears the same relation
