THE CASE OF ALt>>io o.. nAnliM.
Row Medical Science Was Enriched by Il
Singular Injury.

Alexis st. Martin was young
man in the service Of the American
Fur company at what is now Mack
inaw, Mich In the year 1922, when
lS years Of age, ho was accidentally
shot, receiving tho whole charge Of
a muskct in his left side, which frac-
turcd two ribs, lacerate'l tho lunG3
and entered the stomach. DIR. VIII
liam Beaumont, tho surgeon in
charge, restored him in year to
good health, with all his former
strength and spirit. But the open
ing in his body Was never closed.
From 1925 TO 1888 DR.. Beaumont be-
gan series Of experiments on the
stomach OF st. Martin, studying its
operations, seCrctions etc, his pa
tient during all these years present
ing the remarkable spectacle Of
man in good health, good appetite
and good spirits, with an aperture
opening into his stomach through
which the whole action Of the organ
might be observed. The doctor thus
discovered the presence Of the gas
trio juice in the human subject and
demonstrated beyond a doubt its
chemical properties and digestive
powers.
He made other interesting di:jcov-
cries. For instance, that the color
of the membrane Of the stomach is
pale pink: that it's appearance is vel
vetlike, and that the stimulus of
food causes tho gastric follicles to
enter into activity and to pour out
the acid gastric juice. The doctor
would poke food into the stomach
and draw it out aud examine it at
different stages of digestion. One
day he would watch the action Of
stimulants another day tho action
Of scdatives. Ho tried opium and
alcohol He experimental with raw
meat, boiled meat, broiled meat,
baked meat, roast meat and fried
meat.
He found that salted pork, when
raw or broiled, was digested in from
3 to 81 hours. The same article
fried took 4 hours, while fresh pork,
fat and lean, roasted, required It
hours. On the other hand, boiled
fresh beef, with q little salt was di-
gcsted in Ct hours, while old saltcd
beef required ii hours when dressed
in the samc manner. Fish digested
quicker than meat; boiled milk
quicker than unbOilcl milk.
In spite of hl, wound, in spite OF
the indihnitles TO which his stomach
had been subjected, St Martin sur
vivel his doctor and lived to good
old age. Now York World.

County Esond Administration.

Regarding the administration of the
roads in the counties, the cominlttee
considers 1t cyl dent that since the
counties are to bear all he expenses
they must retain entire control. The
system of administration supervisors Is
condemned and 1t is accommodated that
it b. abolished.
Tue finances and general control, in
the opinion OF the committee, SHOULD be
left in the hands of the county com
missioners, but the report advises that
the admin nistration OF the roads and
brld 5es should be committed to com'
ty board to be appointed by the county
commissioners. Such a board it is
suggested, should be to a certain eX-
tent, permanent ; should consist Of
residents of the county and should
have the benefit Of expert adyice and
asslstlnce.
1t is advised that each board shall
consist of three members, to be appolted
for three years. one member going ont
of office without pay, but liberal pro-
visions would be made for their expen-
ses.
The committee deems it right that
the various county boards should be
authorized to call upon the State
engineering department for advice and
assistance without expense to them,
unless they desire surveys made or
such work done as would necessltate
additional expense to the department.
In this way the boards would be fur
nished with the best possible engineer
ing assistance without any cost what.
eyer. The system was adopted in
England under the highway act Of 1862
and to its successful working the
committee attributes the excellence OF
Ehgland's roads at the present day.
Constant Repair Advocated.
The report declares that it is neces-
sary that the roads should be kept in
constant repair and not merely be put
in order al wide intervals 10 lllis end
