There can be no question that very

belief that if French boys were sent

A Man with a Visible Heart.

One of the most remarkable of all
human phenomena of which we find
records in the history of physical science
was young man whose heart and lungs
we're not only visible, but could be
handled by second person.
This young man was the son of the
family of Montgomery and lived in the
reign of Charles l. While travelling
abroad he met with very serious acct
dent, falling upon some instrument
which pierced his side and left large
open wound. Even when the wound had
healed the cavity remained.
The great Harvey, who discovered
this remarkable youth, relates in one of
his journals the strange story.
when paid my respects to this no
BILE youth and conveyed to him the
kings request that should be allowed
to examine him." wrote Harvey, "he
made no concealment, bnt exposed the
left side of his breast, when l saw a
cavity into which l could introduce my
finger and thumb Astonished with the
novelty, again and again explored the
wound, and first. marveling at the ex-
traordinary nature Of the cure, set about
the examination of the heart. Taking it
in the fingers of one hand, and placing
the fingers of the other upon the pulse Of
the wrist / satisfied myself that it was
indeed the heart which grasped. Ithen
brought him before the king that he
might behold and touch SO extraordinary
thing, and that he might perceive, as
did, that unless we touched the outer
skin. or when he saw our fingers in the
cavity, this young nobleman knew not
that we had touched his heart. "
1t was in this way that Harvey proved
his theory of the insensibility of the
heart to be correct. Pearson s Weekly
