heart. He declared he thought he could

him life was extinct, but In order to sat.

village, He, too, made an examination
and confirmed the report OF his brother
physician that the patient was dead,
Still the husband would not be convinced.
He placed his hand upon his wifs's chest
and by some method, tried to produce an
artificial respiration, having made special
study OF the use OF anssthstiCs in connection |
with his profession. He proceeded to
work the arms back and forth, pressing
bis hand on the chest, thus producing an !
artificial movement. The two doctors who
Itood by not only endeavored to dissuade
