Grounding.—This refers to the forming of an earthconnection. The discovery of the stomach reflex solvesmany heretofore inexplicable physical phenomena. Thereflex demonstrates that the earth is the negative terminalof natures energy. With the subject facing West, eventhough insulated, either pole of a bar-magnet will elicit thestomach reflex, but the latter is not obtainable as a rulewith other forms of energy, unless the subject is grounded. The subject must stand on a flooring of unvarnishedwood. Carpet is not objectionable if the latter conditionis fulfilled. When the flooring is of insulated material, thesubject must stand on a sheet of aluminum; the latter isgrounded by a wire connected with a convenient faucet, 36 THE STOMACH KEFLEX radiator or gas-pipe. The shoes worn by the subject mustbe free from insulating material. In my office as well aselsewhere, if the subject stands over water or gas-pipesunder the flooring, a spontaneous stomach reflex (revealed. Fig. 15.—Illustrating method of conveying energj^ from the heart to thestomach region. The subject holds both electrodes during the time the physicianpercusses by aid of the plexor and pleximeter (Fig. 13). by dulness) is evoked and disappears when the subjectoccupies another part of the room. Energy.—Proximity of the subject to intense lightmust be avoided; light being a form of energy, and is capablein itself of evoking the stomach reflex. It is necessar}^ THE STOMACH REFLEX 37 primarily to locate the lower stomach border. To increasethe tone of the gastric musculature sufficient to elicit dul-ness, two simple maneuvers are available:
