Tho principal benefit to civilization of his machine will he its faculty of detecting untruths in criminal cases. Mr. Marston, who is a member of (he Harvard university faculty, claims no supernatural powers for tho instrument, which is known as the Bphygo nuinometer, but points out that in every case where the test was applied In court cases tho machine unerringgly detected statements that were false. "The whole secret," neclared T7i . Murston, "lieo m the scientific fact that any person telling an untruth experiences an emotion which absolutely uffecU tho blood pressure and breathing. The effort to make what is un true appear true causes an exertion which can be definitely traced by means of the stethoscope. , "The simplicity of the apparatus and method of tho test are its first rec ommendations for practical use. The instrument Is attached to the loft nrm above the elbow of the subject. The operator takes frequent pressures, while tho subject is being cross-examined."
