DR.. George w. Grille, prominent
member of the Cleveland Medical Society,
has contributed an article to the current
Cleveland Medical Journal announcing
that through the use of a fluid called
"adrenalin" life can be restored to APP
parently dead bodies. The Article quotes
Dr. Grille as follows: 'sBy the combined
use of intravenous infusions of adrenalin,
artificial respiration, and rhythmic pres
sure upon the thorax over the heart, ami
mails dead as long as fifteen minutes were
restored to life. Animals decap plated
were made to live ten and half hours"
DIR. Grille states that the adrenalin is an
extract gotten from the glands directly
above the kidneys of animals. 1t has
been used heretofore for increasing blood
pressure both in humans and brutes. The
discovery is the result Of recent expert
ments in vivisection by DIR. Grille and 9th
er physicians of the city.

and Quickly Carry 1t Away.
The fuel situation in Bellevue, Ohio,
has reached an acute stage, and joint
conference of the City Council and local
coal dealers was held to decide on plan
OF action. AS a result word was passed
around that there were eight cars of an
thracite in the Wheeling and Lake Erie
yards, and that it would be confscated.
At an hour appointed the fire bell was
rung, and the Mayor and Councilmen,
followed by a delegation of citizens, arm
ed with shovels. marched to the railway
yards and raided the cars. unloading the
eight cars in record breaking time. The
Mayor issued orders under the village
seal, and the coal was distributed
through the local dealers, it being all
paid for at the rate of IS per ton. After
the eight cars were unloaded. a further
search of the yards was made and sew
eral ears of soft coal were found and
duly unloaded. About every team in
town was pressed into service hauling
coal, and the situation is considerably
relieved for the present.
