V il..-. -T'--1 SCQQLPEI, Dangerous Thermometers For some years it has been observed by doctors, drug- gists and hospitals over the United States-the inaccuracy of fever thermometers. It is almost impossible for the druggist or hospital to know the accurate from inaccurate. A clinical ffeverl thermometer is the most deceptive in- strument known as far as observing its absolute accuracy is concerned. For your own information the statement is made by some of the best authorities, physicians of renown and reputation, that patients in hospitals and in their private practice observe a fever thermometer showing fever when the patient really did not have fever and there have been cases where they have been operated upon for appendicitis. The reason for this is the cheap thermometer, sold at from 50 cents to 75 cents or 98 cents each. Often they are called green tubes or unseasoned thermometers. To understand this, the manufacturer must season his thermometers be- fore etching the scale. He must keep this thermometer from three months to two years, otherwise the glass con- tracts and runs the mercury up. Therefore, if made up in a green tube, the registration will change in a few weeks. These are known as cheap thermometers, or rejects, if not properly seasoned. G.
