A Dangerous Experiment.
The matter of the breaking of the

by reason of misrepresentation of the
injury by a person who was present
it came very near being most serious
affair. 1t seems that when the acct
dent occurred this person, under the
impression that the arm was dislOcat-

somewhat violently. The consequences
of this treatment were most unfOrtu-
ate blood vessels were ruptured and
violence done the injured arm that has
caused great suffering and imperilled
