DRAKE. Watehin* the Stomach. The applications of the Boentgen rays, especially In the demain of medicine and surgery, are of constantly widening use fulness, although one hears less of them in the daily press now that the keen edge of novelty has been blunted by a world's appreciation. Two fields of exploration made possible by the fluorescence of vacuum tubes, ana recently entered, are of noteworthy promise. One is the ex amination of lung tissue in the case of con sumption. Tbe healthy lung gives com paratively little shadow in the sciagraph, while the diseased tissue has a much dark er appearance in the picture. It is thus possible to ascertain exactly the part affect ed and to attempt palliative or remedial treatment accordingly. The other recent use of the Roentgen ray of especial value is in observing the movements of the stomach and ita contents in the preliminary digestive process. By mixing subnitmte of bismuth, which is said to be a harmless powder, with the food, the movements of the stomach may be seen by means of the fluoroscope under suitable conditions. The knowledge thus gained la of great importance to the physi ologist and the physician, as many facts hitherto unknown are revealed. It is not strange that an English writer playfully remarked that the X ray may yet be employed to read the riddle of the sphinx. It is certain that Professor Roent gen gave to tbe world a discovery which is bringing to mortal gaze many of the deep mysteries of nature.—Western Electrician. | MUUom Given Aw»y.
