hi and in the mediastinum not onlyin tuberculosis, but in other conditions. The cases I cited 38 American Quarterly of Roentgenology were brought to me as tubercular cases, or with symptomsindicative of tuberculosis, or they were found to be tuberculosisafterwards. I do not pretend to make a diagnosis of tuber-culosis from a radiogram ; I merely try to show the. changesthat are taking place in the lungs and glands, but what thatchange means the clinician and not I must determine. Gray: Portable Plate Exhibit Rack 39 A PORTABLE PLATE EXHIBIT RACK. A. L. GRAY, M. D, RICHMOND, VA.Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Society. The necessity for a portable plate exhibit rack is familiar toall of us who show our plates at meetings of medical societies,and for convenience I have devised the apparatus which I nowpresent. : ) To emphasize its portableness, I will say I have broughtthis from Richmond in the Pullman and on a ferry, carrying itas you see strapped in a bundle, with this sliawl strap.

Exhibit Rack Folded and Packed A great advantage of this cabinet is that it may be made toaccommodate any of the usual sizes of negatives from 4x5 in.up. The number of plates depends, of course, upon their size.It may be made as long as desired, but its height should per-haps be not over 3 ft., as it would be difficult to light up prop-erly one of greater height. As you see, the essential frame consists of six slats, theuprights being hinged to the horizontals so that they may befolded on them. The side slats are retained in position by meansof slotted ends, which are perforated to admit pins. Theuprights have holes drilled in them for the pins, the distancebetween the centers of two adjacent holes being exactly one-half inch. If the first hole be made at the proper distance fromthe top horizontal slat, the spaces, when the slats are adjusted,will be found to fit the plates, whatever be their size, and retainthem without their falling through. The frame is braced by American Quarterly
