A SURE SIGN OF DEATH.
A Certain Test Would Contribute to TIN!
Peace of Mind of Every One.

A Certain Test Would Contribute to this
Peace of Mind of Every One.
From time to time we are Mortified
by learning that some person has
been buried alive, after assurances
have been given OF death. Under
these circumstances the opinion Of a
rising French physician upon tho SUBJ
ject becomes OF worldwide interest;
for since the tests which have been in
use for years have been found unre.
liable. no means should be left untried
to prove beyond doubt that life is
actually extinct before conveying our
loved ones to the grave.
DR.. Martinez asserts that an unfail-
ing test may be made by producing a
blister on the hand or foot of the body
by holding the flame of candle to
the same for few seconds or until
the blister is formed. which will al
ways occur. If the blister contains
any fluid it is evidence of life and the
blister only that produced by an or
binary burn; il. on the contrary. the
blister contains only steam. it may be
asserted that lie is extinct.
The explanation is rs follows: A
corpse is nothing more than inert
matter under tho immediate control
of physical laws which cause all
liquid heated to u certain temperature
to become steam; the epidermis is
raised. the blister produced. it breaks
with Il little noise and the steam es-
capes. But if. IN spite of appear
ances there is any remnant of life,
the organic mechanism continues to
be governed by physiological laws
and the blister will contain Serious
matter, rs in the case of any ordinary
burns. The test is as simple as the
proof is conclusive. Dry blister:
death. Liquid blister: lifo. Any one
may try it; there is no error possible.

''Oh, cause!' says she. She grows

up at him, and he can see that her

One OF the most wonderful facts con.

temperature between GO degrees and
80 degrees Fair. and are killed when
the temperature runs up to above 107
