DOCTORS BREATH
RESTORES LIFE
HAD cHokEp ON LID OF SILVER
PEPPER 5ox-NJ SERIOUS
RESULTS WILL FOLLOW.

st. Louis. Nov. l7.--That Margaret
Dwyer. eighteen months old. was re-
stored to life after she had ceased to
breathe is believed by her parents, Or.
Joseph Hardy and the proprietors Of
Herman Bros drug store.
The restoration was effected after
the child had swallowed a silver top
ped pepperbox this morning and had
choked seemingly to DEATH The
breathing OF his own breath into the
child's lungs. followed by artificial
respiration brought the child back to
life
When Dr. Hardy reached the child
1t appeared to be dead. He placed a
piece OF gauze over the child's mouth.
closed it's nostrils with his fingers and
forced his own breath into it's mouth.
He continued this until a faint color
appeared in the chiId's cheeks. Then
the doctor began the artificial respira-
ton measures, which continued for an
hour. And then--the child stirred.
It's heart beat, and 1t was alive.
According to the belief of the par
ents the baby will experience no seri-
GUS results from its close call.

Svc PIP Y, 800. Henry Holt < Co
The early days of settlement which have fur
nished so much material for history and fiction
to students of the beginnings Of Canada supply
the topics of half a score of thoughtful lectures
by Professor Colby, of McGill. These do not
profess to be based newly discovered eVl-
dence or to rely upon any documents that nave
not seen the light but the author may fairy
lay claim to novelty in the treatment OF the
theme that he has adopted. His plan is 10 pre-
sent various aspects of the French coioniZaIioh
in a compact study of the careers OF certain
representative individuals Champlain, the eH-
plorer; Br6beuf. the missionary; TALON, the III
tendant and Frontenac, the governor are
among the portraits in this living gallery anu
taken together these brilliant vignettes' done
with keen appreciation and a sympathetic touch'
cover a great part of the activities of the seven
tcenth century.
In a preliminary survey of the hlstorlcal oach-
ground Of New France the author points 10 the
significant fact that the period Of the Retorma-
ton. extending from Luther's Wittenberg theses
in 1877 to the revocation of the edict of Nantes
in 16S5 covered everything in Canadian history
from Cartier TO Frontenac, or. in other words
that Canada was discovered, explored and colo
