The dinner at 6 o'clock the previous evening consisted of grape-fruit, mackerel, potato, cucumber and tomato salad, four slices of bread and butter, and strawberries and cream with cocoanut cakes. About 10 o'clock AUSCULTATION OF GASTRO-INTESTINAL SOUNDS 173 in the evening foux slices of bread and butter and a glass of milk were taken. At the time this record was made the telephone transmitter was placed on the lower left quadrant of the abdomen. The duration of the sounds is not indicated, sin...ce the recording muscle contracted in each case only at the climax of intensity. The Sounds produced hy the Large Intestine. — Antiperistaltic waves moving toward the caecum must press the food into a blind pouch, and the only escape for the food must be, as in the stomach with the pylorus closed, back through the advancing ring. Each peristaltic wave should produce a sound, therefore, similar in quality to that of the stomach. From the analogy of the cat and dog, one would expect these waves to have about the same rate of recurrence as the gastric waves.
