TssroRso = DOG TO LIFE.
Canine Eiectrocuted and RevivifeS BY
Means Of Adrenslin.

Cleveland. O., Jan. ls.-What Is prob
ably the most remarkable discovery
made In years In medical research Is
announced by DR.. George W. Grille. a
well known surgeon. as the result OF
his experiments in vivisection. Not
only was DR.. Grille enabled to main
tain life for ten and one half hours in
a dog whose head had been cut OF. but
be actually restored 20 life a dos that
had been killed by electricity. and In
which animation had been suspended
for IS minutes.
This remarkable result was achieved
primarily by the injection in the veins
OF the animal Of adrcnaiin. a fiuid OBJ
tanned from a gland near the kidneys
Of animals Combined with the injec-
ton there was artificial respiration
and a gentle rhythmic pressure over
the thorax. Adreuaiin acts as a heart
stimulant by Increasing the pressure OF
the blood. and the supplementary
manipulation Of the animal produces
the desired result. The results Of his
experiments have created a sensation
among Cleveland physicians.
