above tho normal point to the nature of the little instrument which la found in practically every household probably tho clinical ther mometer is the moat widely used of any pathological instrument and al though familiarity may breed con tempt the accuracy of these small thermometers does actually compare very favorably with that of tho much more costly and larger instruments uted in scientific laboratories the clinical thermometer in com- mon with its larger brethren is sub ject to errors which may gfcvo rise to flethlous indication sr unless- special glass is used for the thin bulb con- tainlng the mercury orrcrs will ac cumulate for some considerable time after manufacture due to a slow shrinkage whlclj takes place-r-extend- hib sometimes for years often too gas entrapped in the walls of the ther mometer stem passes into the fine capillary hole and results in portions ocanorqury becoming detaciedtfrom the main column these pieces may pass unnoticed and lncorreot temper atures may b indicated then too clinical thermometers have troubles of their own due in the main to the constriction which enables tho mercury column to retain its read lng after removal from tho patients mcuth the making qf this constric tions calls for great skill on the part of the glassblower if the thermom eter is over constxleted the mercury will rlseby lorgejbumps causing er rors andt5ecoiunin
