fetus in utero gestation. The extremity was suggested by the stethoscope of Laennec, and is introduced through the vagina and applied against the neck of the uterus. It is used when the sounds and movements are imperceptible through the parieties of the abdomen. Met′ro-tome. （Surgical.) An instrument like a bistoury cache, which is introduced into the cavity of the uterus, where the knife is unsheathed and cuts on withdrawing. Its purpose is to divide the neck of the uterus. See Thomas's Diseases of women. A hysterotome. Mez-za-nine′. A low window occurring in attics and entresols. Sometimes applied to an entresol. A mezzanine story is a half-story; one lower than the stories above and below it. Mez′zo-ri-li-e′vo. The moderate prominence of a sculptured figure from the plane surface to which it is attached.

ash, as recommended by Ruolz. He proceeds at some length to state the effectiveness of the battery in producing a deposit of nickel on copper in half an hour, which would deflect the needle, and preserve the lower metal from the effect of nitric acid more perfectly than a coating of gold deposited in the same time. Parkes, 1845, melted an alloy of nickel with a flux for coating metal plates. Junot, 1852, alloyed silicum, titanium, tungsten, etc., with nickel for electro deposition. Thomas, 1854, used ferro-cyanide of potassium and nitromuriatic acid to obtain a nickel solution for the battery. In 1855 he used the same, with carbonate of ammonia and oxide of alumina. Cheatley, 1855, deposited alloys of nickel by a battery (British patent 1543, of 1855). An alloy of nickel was applied to iron plates by friction and heat by Barron in 1856 Shepard, 1858, deposited an alloy of silver and nickel. The solution is made by adding carbonate of ammonia to a solution of nitrat

the pulp to adhere more firmly thereto. John Wilks added a perforated cylinder to the Fourdrinier machine to ficilitate the escape of water from the web previous to its passage through the pressing-rolls; and Dickenson patented a machine for forming a double-web paper by uniting the web in process of formation with a sheet previously formed. Thomas Barratt obtained a patent for a means of impressing the water-mark and maker's name in continuous paper, so as to resemble that made by hand Thomas and Woodcock, of Brattleboroa, Vt., patented a pulp-dresser; and Thomas Gilpin, of Philadelphia, a paper-calendering apparatus. 1831. J. J. Jaquir obtained a patent for making continuous paper with wire-marks similar to hand-made paper. Edward Pine, of Troy, and E. N. Fourdrinier patented apparatus for cutting continuous paper into lengths; and Turner, a strainer designed to supersede the agitating vat of the Fourdrinier machine. Carvil, of Manchester, Conn., patented a screen with fa

ngmachine for small hempen or cotton string. A thread-machine. Twine-reel′er. A mule-doubler. Twine-holder. Twin′ning-ma-chine′. A machine for cutting two combs (twins) from the single piece. It is said to have been invented by Mr. Thomas of Philadelphia. The cutter consists of two chisels which act perpendicularly and alternately upon the plate which passes beneath them. Each chisel cuts one side of two teeth, and severs one from the opposite back at each stroke. See comb. nary ring.
