    SALIVA EJECTOR. (Mb. C. ROGERS' IMPROVE]).) The value and importance of an in- strument that shall remove the saliva from the mouth, cannot be over- estimated as regards the comfort of either the patient or the operator, the important point being that it shall work automatically for several hours, and yet be independent of a large supply of water. The Saliva Ejector is an instrument which is found to meet these require- ments. It is elegant in appearance, simple in construction, and easily regu- lated. The glass vessel at the top of the instrument holds about three pints of water, which passes inside the tube and discharges itself into the receiver under the stand of the Ejector. It can be placed behind or at the side of the chair, as may be desired, and put aside when not in use. DIRECTIONS. J To prepare the Ejector for use, re- move the nickel-plated lid of the glass vessel, fill the vessel with clean water, replace the lid, unscrew the milled button on the top two or three turns, and allow the water to pass freely through the tube for a few seconds ; then screw up the button just far enough to allow the water to pass through in drops, when a slight turn one way or the other will be found sufficient to regulate the action. The mouth-tube can be cleansed by running a little fresh water through it.
