GRAFT BONE OF
MANON WOMAN
OPERATION WAS SUCCESSFUL
ONE AND WAS A UNIQUE FEAT
IN MODERN SURGERY.
D. Aaseelated Presa

New York, Sept. 23.-What is re-
garded as a very rare and unique feat
in modern surgery was performed the
other day at. one OF the local hospitals
where the bone of man killed in an
accident was engrafted onto the bone
in the leg of q woman patient. Sew
eral weeks ago the woman entered the
hospital suffering from necrosis OF her
shin bone. She had been experiencing
pain in that quarter on and off for ten
years without knowing the cause. An
X-ray examination at the hospital dis
closed that the bone had been rotting
away and setting UP Inflammation,
which made its removal necessary.
About the same time that the woman
entered the hospital, an unknown man.
injured in an accident, was brought
there. When he died his shin bone
was extracted, put in salt solution
and placed in cold storage. BY keep
ing the temperature of the bone below
the freezing point, the surgeons pre-
served it's life until they were ready to
graft it onto the severed ends OF the
bones in tn ewoman's leg. This OPP
Grafton required but a short time and
the patient is now reported as steadily
narrowing. The bone from the leg of
the dead man is knitting rapidly to the
one in the womna's limb. The muscles
and tissue are healing, and granula-

TO Be HONOR
GUESTS OF THE
BUSINESS men
COL. D. C. COLLIER AND G. eRos-
VENoR DAVE TO BE AT THE
LUNCHEON TO BE GIVEN NEXT
THURSDAY AT THE SAN CAR
Los HOTEL.

The fourth business mems lunch to
occur at the San Carlos hotel on
Thursday, September 2Sth, at one
o'clock, will have as guests of honor
and speakers Of the occasion Col. D.
G. Collier, director general of the 1915
Panama California exposition, and G..
Grosvenor Dave, managing director Of
the Southern Commercial Congress.
Their discussion will be along the
line to encourage a movement for the
immediate and permanent diversion Of
trans continental travel to southern
routes and universal lay-over privi-
leges for southern cities.
1t is, of course, unnecessary to call
attention to the fact that Lhe presence
of these men in Pensacola means con-
81 cradle in the interest of the city
generally, and that their being honor
guests at next Thursdays luncheon
creates a necessity that every really
tendance.
The Business Mems Lunches
Probably no other single factor in
PensacSla's recent civic development
has done more to create a more per-
feet unison between the city's men of
affairs.
In the regular attendance at these
luncheons 1t has been possible to meet
together in a common field of thought
and action with the result that, under
the auspices Of the Commercial Asso-
citation, and through the offices OF the
San Carlos hotel, an almost inestima-
bic amount Of good has been accom-
plished by this rubbing Of elbows by
the men who rule the city's destinies.
Next Thursday will probably be the
most suspicious and important OF all
these occasions so far, and II will not
be difficult to assume who's who and
why" in Pensacola, once the guest list
Of the luncheon is noted.
Pensacola men are invited.
