New concepts in diagnosis and treatment : physico-clinical medicine, the practical application of the electronic theory in the interpretation and treatment of disease, with an appendix on new scientific facts . bycovering the opening in a wooden hoop itself with aspecially prepared parchment and forcibly pressingover all another wooden hoop, which makes the parch-ment very tense. These hoops are securely fastenedto a wooden handle which has a cloth shock absorberfastened to it close to the hoops. The hammer forstriking the Organotonometer is made of piano feltglued to a wooden handle. To vibrate the Organotonometer, the handle is heldfirmly in one hand, and the shock absorber on it is hitwith the felt hammer with a staccato stroke. The tonevaries with the tension, substance, and j)roximity ofthe neighboring material. The same observer has constructed a drum (Fig. 29)made of a metal cylinder tightly closed at one end withmetal, and at the other end, with the specially preparedparchment so put on that it is air tight and very tense. In the side of the cylinder is soldered a nipple to whichone end of a rubber tube is attached, and a mouth piece is 76 AUXILIARY METHODS DEMONSTRATING HUMAN ENERGY. Fig. 29.

Jarvis. When apercussion sound is elicited this is translated by the tonometric scale (struck byfelt hammer) and a record made.

By varying the degree of inflation ofthe cyHnder all nuances of sound may be elicited during thetime the organotonometer is used. The writer has employed for a similar purpose* percus-sion of the cheek with the mouth closed. By inflation anddeflation of the cheek all shades of sound are evocable.
