The Two Kinds of Death.

The Medical News has an article upon
resuscitation after death which, if extern
siveiy read by the laity, is sure to occa-
sion doubt and anxiety in the minds of
many persons. After showing that two
kinds of death-somatic and cellular
take place before life has completely
faded from the body to be recalled. the
article points out the Importance of
physicians properly distinguishing be-
tween the tive and renewing or abandon
ing their efforts at resuscitation as cir
cumstances direct. Somatio death may
be briefly described as the failure of the
main organs of the body, the brain, heart
and lungs, to perform their functions,
while cellular death is where the cells or
tissues of the body die. Both may occur
at the same time, but, the writer urges,
the former may take place without the
latter, and often does, and in all such
cases there is a chance of resuscitating
the dead person until cellular death SUI.
p%ervenes.
Authentic instances of such resuscita-
tation are given-among others, the case
of a man whose body remained at the
bottom of q shallow stream for fully half
an hour before it was taken out. He was
resuscitated after several hours of unre-
hitting labor. But a more remarkable
case was that vouched for by Professor
Armor. A friend of his died from In
dian hemp poisoning. The physician
racked his brain for more than an hour
for some means of restoring his friend to
life while he lay dead in his presence,
and at length called to his aid u sturdy
negro. They worked manfully for four
hours. During all that time there was
not the slightest sign Of life, but at its
expiration a slight movement of the lips
was detected, and the stethoscope dis
closed "an occasional light, muff1ed
sound over the heart" Their efforts
were doubled, with the result that respi.
ration and circulation were very slowly
re-established and consciousness returned
after many hours. The nan lived fol-
many years afterward-indeed, up to q
few years ago, and was a prominent New
England banker.-New Orleans Plea.
