THAT is considered one of the
M most successful, brilliant and
remarkable surgical opera
tions ever performed in the
world, by reason Of the great danger
involved of cutting of the life Of the
patient during the progress Of the deli
cate work, has just been performed by
Prof. Manteuffel of Dorpath. Germany,
On a young girl living in the same town
as the noted surgeon.
This marvellous and daring. operation,
which proved so successful and Is now
claiming the attention of eminent sur
geons the world over, involved cutting
open and sewing UP Of the girls heart
This prominent surgeon succeeded in re-
moving from the heart of his patient,
beating Of which had stopped two hours
before his aid was sought, bullet
which had lodged in back of the organ.
Apparently Dead.
This girl. aged twenty years, shot her
self by accident. and when discovered
she was 20 all appearance dead, her
heart having ceased 20 beat Two hours
after the accident Prof. Manteuffel was
CO He'd in. and after examination declared
that. though the heart had undoubtedly
ceased its functions. he felt convinced
that the girl was not dead.
After administering chloroform he
opened the breast. and on examining the
heart found at the fieshy part OF tho
back a hard substance which he knew
! TO be the bullet. Making a slight cut
with a lancet. he pressed his fingers
| against the flesh until the lead fell out
After which he sewed up the wound
