A Promisin. Harvest.

Where They Went.
Professors Lander, Spessard, and
Rankin went from Edgefield to Aiken
for the purpose of opening Teachers
Institute at that place. The Aiken
Journal and Review says: sThe at
tendance of male teachers upon the
sessions of the Teachers Institute has
been very small, only two having been
enrolled during the first two days.
That they are not all perfect will be
inferred from the following answer in
reply to aquestion asked yesterday
morning: Alady teacher on her way
to the Institute met male teacher and
inquired of him why he had not at

The Cincinnati Llucet-Clinic tranlate,
municated to the Paris Academy Of
Medicine, on new means of resuscitat |
ing person apparently dead from
drowning. 1t consists in forcibly draw
ing out the tongue, in pressing the jaws
apart and in pulling the tongue forward
and backward in an energetic manner
The value of this nance lvre Is due to
its marvellous effect on the reflex respir-
atory system. NJ. Laborie cites the
history of two subjects who were appar-
emily dead by drowning whom he re-
stored to life by this procedure He
concludes that we should never despair
in cases of drowning, even if death has
apparently taken place.
In commenting on this report of NJ.
Laborde, NJ. Mericourt said he approved
fully of the procedure, but believed it
would be impru lent to enploy it to the
exclusion of methods of artificial respira-
ton, notably that of Sylvester. This
consists in laying the patient on his bick
on plain inclined little from the feet
upward, raising the shoulders gently by
cushion placed under them, with the
head tlrown back, when the operator
grasps the patients arms just above the
elbows, repeatedly raising them till they
nearly meet above the head, and then
lowering them till they firmly press for
a moment against the sides of the chest.
