CALLED BACK FROM DEATH.-Five weeks
ago the wife of Charles p Pruin, dentist
of Chicago, gave birth to child. This was
followed by an attack of puerperal mania.
They were living 8, Oak Park. As his wife
rapidly grew worse Mr.. Pruin coueulted 3
city physician, who, after seeing the patient,
recommended tho use OF arae stheticS. The
CITY doctor did not continue TO handle the
case, but An Oak Park physician was called
in. He also adopted the same treatment,
administering strong doses Of morphine.
The lady was found to be rapidly sinking
till OIL Saturday night she fell back on the
pillow lfe!ess. Her breathing had ceased
and the pulse was gone. The attending
physician distinctly pronounced her dead.
The husband was frantic, and rushing to
the bed side of bis wife pu, his ear to her
heart He thought he could detect q faint
throb. The physician again assured him
that life was extinct. but in order to satisfy
Mr.. Pruin he called in another doctor of the
village. He, too made an examination,
and confirmed the report of his brother
physician that his patient was dead. Still
the husband would not be convinced. He
placed his hand upon his wife's chest and
tried to produce sn artificial respiration,
having long made special study of the use
of apesthetics in connection with his pre-
fession. He proceeded to work the arm
back and forth, pressing his hand on the
chest, thus producing an artificial move
ment. The two doctors demonstrated with
him for. committing what they deemed a
PROCLAMATION Of the dead. He continued his
efforts, and after few minutes the patient
began slowly TO revive. She is now able to
move around.

EATING THE SPARROWs.

When Paterson sportsmen run short OF
other game they have been compelled TO
shoot English spsrrows, and Sparrow pie is
no longer an experiment in this city, but a
dish relished by all who have tasted it. Oae
of the letter carriers is an enthusiast on the
question of sparrows, and deVotes most all
of his spare time to getting sparrows, ready
for the pot. He says that they make the
best eating aud are dainties of the first CT
der The principal sparrow eaters are,
however, TO he found among tho Engllsh
residents of this city, who came from the
home Of the sparrow and know ali about
him. One of these in writing on this sub
;ect says: "Many things are necessary fer e
sparrow pie and The chief Of these s lirs'
to catch your sparroWs. The sparrows like

the artfuIness and deXterity with which ho

wheat, and carry it of, is one of the things
that are rarely observed, though they are
we'll worth observing. Naturally they are as
unpopular with the farmer as IS the barn
rat. Sparrows are much too artful for any
trap. 1t is almost idle to set nooses or lay
clap nets for thsze birds. The sparrow CATCH
