A SURGICAL PROBLEM.
By th« Aid ef WiralaM TaUgraphy M
W u Happily Solved.
A perplexing medical problem
was picked up one day by the wire­
less man of the steamship Pari»-
mina while croeaing the gulf of
Mexico. A bad accident had be­
fallen the patient and only a sur­
gical operation could save hit life.
The wireless call came from the
island o f Sums, well out of the path
o f regular ship# and hopelessly far
from any shore station. Here lived
a small colony, Crusoe fashion, en­
gaged in mining phosphates. An oc­
casional tramp steamer was their
only means of traveling to and from
the mainland, and there was no
doctor in lees than a week’s sail.
A narrow gauge railway carried the
phosphates from the mines to the
coast, and one of the workmen, the
wireless message ran, had been run
over and his foot almost severed
from his leg. Sums, luckily, had
one modern convenience— a power­
ful wireless station— and this had
flung the call for help far and wide
across the gulf. The patient mean­
while was rapidly growing weaker
from I osb o f blood.
The officers of the Parismina
held a hasty consultation. The is­
land was just 110 miles away and
off the course, and it would mean
loss of time and money to turn
about.
“ Leave this case to the wireless
operator and me,” said the ship’s
doctor.
A wireless message was thereupon
sent out, signed by Dr. C..S. Carter
of the Parismina, asking for all the
details of the patient’s condition.
The commander of the ship, Cap­
tain Mader, added that he would
call at the island if it proved abso­
lutely necessary. All this was the
work of but a few minutes. The
doctor transferred his office to the
wireless room in order to save time
in communicating with his case.
The reply came back directly. The
toes were held only by a few liga­
ments, and the patient was weaker.
His pulse was given and his tem­
perature, then the doctor set to
work.
A long wireless message told the
amateur surgeons just how to pre­
pare a strong antiseptic and wash
the wound. This was done, and the
island station “ stood by” for fur­
ther orders. A still longer message
was then clicked off, describing just
how to cut away the injured part
and to bind the arteries with a liga­
ture to prevent loss of blood. ThePe
was an anxious interval in the wire­
less booth awaiting the reply from
Sums. The next message to the
ship told that the hemorrhage had
ceased and immediate danger was
over.
There remained, however, the
danger of infection, &nc( the doctor
of the Parismina directed that regu­
lar readings be made of the patient’s
temperature and his condition re­
ported at frequent intervals. He
waB thus able to watch his patient
closely for any symptoms of blood
poisoning. The wireless treatment
went on continuously until the
steamer was 420 miles away, when
Dr. Carter was able to dismiss the
case.— Francis A. Collins in “ The
Wireless Man.”

THE ELECTRIC FUSE
It* Flash and Sm oka and B urning O u t
Maan S afaty, N at Danger.
The flash, smoke and sometimes
total darkness which accompany the
burning out of an electric fuse are
frequently the cause of considerable
alarm to persons unfamiliar with
the operation of this essential little
device, which, like a charge of pow­
der, achieves destruction in the per­
formance of the act for which it is
created. In effect the fuse is a
safety valve, serving the same end
as the steam safety valve— reliev­
ing a dangerous pressure— and the
flash and smoke are a sign of re­
lief, not of present danger.
The “ fuse” is simply a short sec­
tion of wire of such material and
size that it will carry a determined
amount of electric current and no
more. When the maximum voltage
is exceeded the fuse is consumed,
the connection broken and the cur­
rent, of course, cut off, putting a stop
to the operation of the system until
a new fuse is put in. This is the
effective but somewhat primitive
form of electric safety valve in gen­
eral use.
