Testing Pleurisy With Coins.

A novel method Of diagnosing pleur-
isy is described by P. Lereboullet in
the Paris Medical. The examiner ap-
plies his ear to the patients chest,
closing his other ear, while coins are
clinked at the patients back. The
sound Of the coins coming through a
healthy, normally ly-aerated lung seems
distant and dull, while through an af-
fected lung, through soiled or homoge-
neous tissue, clear, silvery, metallic
ring is heard. i z.
