A man struck with any degree of
force upon the mental area Of the jaw,
although he may be In perfect physical
condition, instantly collapses and falls
to the ground. says medical journal.
The attitude assumed in recovery,

ed some minutes, is most characters

and rolls his eyes in an attempt to To-
cate himself. He tries to get on his
side and elbow; he endeavors to rise
upon his hands and knees. II he re-
gains his feet he staggers like drunk
en- man, and should he proceed to re-
open hostilities he is usually prompt
" put out" by his adversary. The
blow is practically never fatal; the
hearts action is never unduly acceler-

headache, no sweats, no cold extreni-
ties, no pallor-none Of the ordinary
