aey- A French physician, DR.. La
bordette, claims to have discovered q
process for restoring life to drowned
persons after an immersion of half an
hour and more. Indeed, il is said
that it has proved effectual where the
patient has been under water as
much as six hours. Heretofore four
teen minutes has been considered the
extreme limit Of time during which
the vital spark can be preserved
without air, and in most cases five
minutes of suffocation is fatal. The
process is not fully described in the
accoiant given Of it in the French
papers, but it seems to involve the
use Of an instrument for opening the
windpipe, coupled with kneading
and rubbing the body.
