1T CURED THE SULTAN.
An Overdose Of Medicine and lts RI
suits.

An Overdose Of Medicine and Its Re-
suits.
This actually happened In Mindanac.
The story was told to- me by the army
surgeon himself.
He was seated in his tent one morn
ing when a number OF tine followers OF
the Sultan Of Paatar came hurrying to
him. saying the Sultan was dying OF
cholera. Aided by the slight knowi-
edge he then mad Of their language
the surgeon diagnosed the case FROM
their reports as a well-nigh hopeless
one. Still, anxious to show the Skill
and friendliness Of the American for
the Moro brother, he hastily made u
six powders, each containing one-six-
tieth of grain OF morphine and thir-
ty gains Of bismuth. These he guTe
to the emissaries, telling them to give
the Sultan ono of them in glass OF
boiled water every three hours and to
report to him next morning how the
patient was getting along.
The next morning the surgeon was
more than surprised to see the Sultan
himself walk into the tent. Wan and
weak as he was, he had come some
eight miles to thank the surgeon per-
sonally for having saved his life; and
had brought with him one of his sub
jects, who spoke Spanish well enough
TO serve as an Interpreter.
It was through this Interpreter that
the surgeon learned how his direc-
tions had been followed. First they
had giysn the entire six powders to
the Sultan at one dose-a full grain
of morphine and 180 grains of bis
muth-and then had poured a lumber
full of boiling water into him every
three hours afterward, scaldins his
mouth and throat so that he could
hardly; speak.
But it cured MIN and the surgeon
says the same treatment cured many
another Moro who would probably
have died under lesser doses.-RrooS
