—Canada Medical Record. DR. MONELL is regarded as one of the foremostthinkers of the medical world, and in electro-therapeutics has done more for Static electricity thanany other living man. His voluminous writings havemade for him a living history. His books on theuses of electric currents in X-ray work and in electro-therapeutics have had an enormous sale. As author,teacher, scholar, he is at the top. —The American X-Ray Journal. WITHIN the past few years there has been aremarkable increase in the use of the Staticmachine, and one of the foremost in advocating andpopularizing its use in the profession has been Dr.S. H. Monell. He has also forced the recognition ofthe Static machine as a means for producing theX-ray, and that against determined opposition. Avisit to his office gives no indication of ostentationor exaggeration, but convinces one that he is moder-ate in his claims, and has accomplished what he hasby hard work and unremitting attention. —Cleveland Medical Gazette.

DESCRIPTION OF INSTRUCTION PLATE PROVING TECHNIC OF EXPOSURE By Evidence Imprinted in the Negative when it was made. The 8x10 plate was centred by the Authors Position-Finder by the firstmethod, using the eye only, as shown in Instruction Plate No. 53. By means of the Authors Penetration Gauge a tube was regulated to producea radiance of X3 for the purpose of the exposure. The X3 represents the power ofradiance at the distance at which the exposure was made. (20 inches in thiscase.) In the negative three laps of the Standard Register show and prove thatthree layers of the metal were penetrated. (See description of this device.) It isshown to be a very low power of radiance. The sharply defined circle is the lower circle of the Authors Distortion Land-mark, proved by the clearness of its shadow to have been close to the film. Theblurredsystemofinstruct00mone
