The National `Physical Lab- oratory in England `reported /that in one series. of nine thousand tliermom-r eters twenty-eight percent. were found unreliable. Good makers have a. much smaller percentage of failures. .As a comparison with` the figures just quot- ed, one firm in the same year had only twenty-five instruments rejected out of fifteen thousand and most of those were for minor defects. ~ ALLL--nu 4: z, u nun . xuuy IJU uluauzueu. _ Then too, clinical thermom'eters have troubles of their own. due in `the main to the "constriction which enables the mercury -column to retaih its reading after removal from the patient s mouth. The making of this constriction calls for great skill on the part.of the glass blower. If the thermometer` i o'ver constricted the mercury will rse by large jumps, causing errors , and the column will be difficult to shake back. on the other hand the. mercury must be trapped ef ectively, otherwise axfall will takeplace-in the index. when the thermometer isgiremoved for reading. giving` a temperature which is too low. rn1......... ..._;.....'.. -._- ..--.lL- A_-_.._____1u_, -,, `.lll1'I1u.l.blUl}uI`B, uue to at slow snmnxage which takes place, extending some- times for years". Often, too, gas` en- trapped in the walls of the thermom- eter stem passes into the fine capillary hole. and results in portions of mercury becoming" detached from `*-the main column. These pieces may pass ;un- noticed, and incorrect temperatures may be indicated.

Probably the clignical thermometer is the most widely used of any patho- logical instrument. and,` ~ although familiarity may breed contempt the accuracy of these small thermometers ` does actually compare very favourably with that of the much more costly and larger instruments used in scientific laboratories.

Beaumarls is in a lovely cove and seems quite an extensive colony.
