From "Popular Hcience News." Dr. V. G. Black has recently made experiments upon the force exerted by the human jaws In chewing food, and also the greatest force which the jaws are capable of exerting. By means of a spring instrument provided with a registering device, he took records of about 150 "bites" of different persons. Of these, fifty have been preserved as characteristic of the ordinary man, woman, and child. The smallest pressure recorded was 30 pounds, by a little girl seven years old. This was with the incisors. Using her molars, the same child exerted a force of 65 pounds. The highest record was made by a physician of thirty-five. The Instrument used only registered 270 pounds, and he simply closed it togethei without apparent effort. There was no method of determining how far above 270 pounds he could have gone. This test was made with the n olars. Several persons exceeded a force of 100 pounds with the incisors and 200 with the molars. The physi cal condition of the persons experi mented upon seemed to have little bearing upon the result. Dr. Black is of the opinion that the condition of the peridental membranes is the control ling factor, rather than muscular strength. Dr. Black found that, in the habitual chewing of food, much more force is exerted than is necessary. In chewing a piece of beefsteak, the crushing point of which was front 40 to 45 pounds, from 60 to 80 pounds stress was actual ly employed at each' thrust of the teeth. The principal articles of food tested had crushing points as follows; Steak, 40 to 45 pounds; mutton chop9, 35 to 40 noutuls; broiled ham, 45 to 60 pounds; roast beef, 45 to 00 pounds; pork chops, 20 to 25 pounds, and the choicest parts of cold boiled beef tongue, 3 to 5 pounds. The tougher parts of beef and mutton required a crushing force of 90 pounds in some Instances, Bad Man from Bitter Creek.
