Quote:Excerpt from The American Practitioner and News, Vol. 44: A Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery; January to December, 1910

My first apparatus 1 one made by Betz, being heated by gas at one en the heat being conveyed by a sheet iron pipe to the interior; direct contact with the patient being avoided by a shield running the entire length of the oven. The part affected res-ts on a ham mock of course material. A vent - hole in the top controls, to a large extent, the heated air contained therein, which is also regulated by a thermometer. 'the use of gas is not entirely free from danger, especially when a high de gree of heat is desired, and I have had the toweling to scorch when using this apparatus and, at one time, to smoulder. However, odor and smoke from the vent gives warning enough concerning this danger.
