More-over, it is a welcome change from theusual routine of prosthetic work. The selection of the rods which willgive the best results with the least ex-penditure of time and labor is a matterof experience. Judging by the eye alone,the tendency is to select a larger size rodthan is necessary. In consequence it isbest to measure the maximum lengthand breadth of teeth which will be re-.

Before quittingthis subject it may be well to remindthe reader once more that time may beconserved in the manner spoken of indealing with crown work, where it wassuggested that a part of the shaping upmay be left to a mechanical assistant:in fact a skilful mechanic can usually betrusted to do the whole of the experience has proved that * Possibly the reader will note considerabledifferences with regard to these times. Thisarose from the fact that the specimens wereprepared by individuals with varying degreesof experience; some were prepared by a me-chanical assistant and pupils who had hadlittle experience, some by a mechanic who hadhad a great deal of practice, while others wereprepared by the writer and his partners. vol. lvi.—89 quired, while, with a view
