REsUscITATE AsPHYxlATED.
Rhythmical Traction cf The Tongue Is
Most Successful Way Of Reviv-
ing Drowning Poison.


Rhythmical traction Of the
tongue has long been one of the
most effective means of reviving
a person who has been drowned.
DR.. Laborde, who has carried on
extensive investigation on the
effect of tongue traction as a
means of resuscitation, maintains
that often, although the organism
has apparently ceased to live cx
ternally, it lives internally. That
is to say, life is still latent, and
while there is latent life there is
hope of saving drowned or as
Phyxiated person. The function
which it is most necessary to re-
vive is the respiratory. Expert
menting upon dogs, DR.. Lahorde
found that two or three hourS
after apparent death had set in it
was sometimes possible to secure
resuscitatiOn. A vigorous half
bulldog weighing 80 pounds was
chlorOfOrmed to such an extent
that respiration had entirely
ceased. After a quarter of an
hours traction of the tongue the
animal came to. The experiment
was tried again until complete as.
phyxiation had occurred, and trac.
ton was not resortcd to until FIVE
minutes later. The dog, who has
appropriately been named Laza-
rus, this time appeared TO be dead.
One hour and two hours of trar.
tiOn followed, with no result. but
after another half hour respira.
tory cough showed that life was
present. The dog soon revived.
1t occurred to Dr. LabOrde that il
would be good idea to substitute
