Measuring the Heat of the BODY.

Measuring the Heat of the Body.
BY means of an ingenious instrument
invented by DR.. Lombard Of New York
1t is ascertained that woman's body
Is warmer than that Of a man by about
three-fourths Of q degree and some
times as high as one degree, while In
no instance has the warmth Of a mans
body been found to be greater than
that Of female. 1t is also definitely
ascertained that children are decidedly
warmer than adults, the difference be-
ing about 1 degree F., the younger the
child the greater the diversity. A diff
ference in the heat Of the sides of the
body is discovered to be an invariable
law. The left side Of the head and ex-
tending downward to the base Of the
neck IS much hotter than the right side.

Gold and platinum have little or no
odor, but the smell Of newly cut tin
and Of other metals is very pronounc-
cd. It is suggested that uranium fur
nishes a clew to the odors Of metals,

of 800 had been made by Congress some
