Healing By Machinery mtomatic Devices which Take tho Place of Expert Surgeons. rom the Now York Press. Hospital patients can now be iiihetl by machinery. An inven ?r has recently patented an lu? anions little machine, consisting f a small box, in which is a selfigistering thermometer, cannect1 electrically with a tiny hell. ins register is pul under the rmpit of u person suffering from ivor nml when his temperature ses the bell lings and the doctor r nurse is summoned. A wound stitching machine is le invention of another doctor imed Michel. It works very inch more rapidly than the old icthod of stitching by hand, is unless and effective. It consts of a case or sheath, holding number of nickel hooks or inds, like those used for the cor jrs of cardboard boxes. They *o pin in position with a pair of ireeps and can he adjnstod at the ito of twenty live a minute. Their Minded points do not penetrate le lower layer of tho skin, hut ily tho ipidermis, and therefore, io pain caused by them is very iglit. They have the additional lvantagc of being very easily sinfectcd. A most curious invention is that f Dr. Coakloy tor stimulating a oak heart. It consists of a hoi ?w needle some oight inches long, iad? of an alloy of gold, and riven by a litllo electric motor, t is ho sbapod that it can bo used > actually pierce the heart and ijeet into it a solution of salt and arm water, which will stimulate \o organ and so prolong and save fe. Somewhat? similar is the deice of Dr. Cordier, which is folio cure of neuralgia and similar litis. It is a sort of gigantic hyDdermic svringo by the aid of Inch not medicine, but air can a injected beneath the skin of the ifl'orer. A sort of bubble of air formed under the skin and this, iing kneaded along the painful irts, gives instantaneous relief ? severe cases of sciatica lumbago id other neuralgic atlliclions. For the cure of consumption a lachine ha* been devised which in also bo operated from the imp socket of an ordinary olecic light, it consists of a transinner and what is called an Audiols tube.
