OPERATED ON OWN BODIES
Cases Of Four Heroic Surgeons Who
Established Records for Acts
Of "Autotomy."

The recent report from San Fran.
cisco that a surgeon there had at
tempted to operate upon himself for
appendicitis recalls to Dr. Paul
Reclus four instances where surgeons
actually did succeed in performing
operations upon themselves He re-
! counts them in the Lancet, and the
following appears in the Medical Rec
ord:
Paul Reclus has commented on
the courage and stoicism, necessary
for the act of what he calls 'au.
totomy,' or surgical operation upon
ones own body He has described
at some length four examples of this
heroic procedure. The first story is
that of French surgeon who, having
asquired a small outgrowing tubercu-
Iona of the right index finger follow.
Ing an operation wound, determined
to excise it under cocaine anesthesia.
This he did, surrounded by his class,
In curiously unsurgical way, by fix
Ing the instrument-f1rst a scalpel,
then a sharp spoon-in the left hand
and performing all the necessary
movements with the diseased right
hand. In spite Of this novel tech
nique, the result was quite satisfac-
tory. His only discomfort was little
nausea at the unpleasant sensation Of
scraping his own periosteum; this
was. however, corrected by a sip of
hot coffee.
In the second case the surgeon op
Grated on himself for bilateral ingrow.
Ing toe-nail, apparently without pain
and with absolutely satisfactory re.
suit. The hero of the third story was
Turkish military surgeon attached
to Professor Reclus' own clinic, who
was operated on for double inguinal
hernia under local anesthesia with
such complete success that he deter
mined to remove for himself a trouble
some affection. The procedure was
painless and the result perfect.
"The fourth 'autotomy' was per
formed by M. Regnault, a naval med
ical officer, who was led to undertake |
a radical cure Of his own hernia, He |
anesthetized the area of operation by
injecting cocaine into the several lay
ers Of tissue concerned, after a pre-
liminary injection of morphine into
The simultaneous tissues of the thorax.
He guarded himself from disaster by
the help of two colleagues.
who stood by prepared for action in
case they were needed. However all
went we'll, and there was neither pain
1or mishap"

TOOTH RULES SLEEP WALKER
Girl Doubly Cured When Aching
MoIar is Pulled by German
Doctor.

Berlin.-An extraordinary case OF
somnambulism, resulting from tooth
ache, has been observed by German
doctor.
About two hours after going asleep
each evening his six-year-old daugh-
ter would get up crying for her moth
er, and talking to herself, would walk
with open eyes through one or more
dark rooms as If seeking something.
On being spoken to in loud voice,
she either would make no reply or
give confused answer. After return
ing to bed she some times would
sleep quietly and at othertimes would
continue to moan. Usually she would
pass the rest of the night in untrou-
bled sleep, though occasionally she
would walk again. In the morning her
face would be very red.
Examination showed that this singu-
lar condition was caused by sensi-
tive tooth which had been filled.
When the filling was removed an
abscess was discovered. The tooth
was extracted. and since then there
has been no return of the sleep-walk-
ing.
AS the child was otherwise in per.
feet health the somnambulistic state
is supposed to have been produced by
the effect of the poisonous matter at
the root of the tooth entering the
blood and causing brain irritation A
very slight disturbance during sleep
is sufficient to excite the brain, which
then lis reposing and recruiting
strength.

BLaT CUTS WHALE IN Two
With tho eIubber Dangling From
It's Rigging.

San Francisco, Cal---Of all fish
yarns brought to this port recently,
the one brought In by the coasting
schooner James H. Bruce Is prize
winner. Moreover, 1T Is true. and
there is further evidence than the
mere word Of the jolly sea dogs that
their ship ran into and killed huge
whale Portions Of the carcass of the
unfortunate mammal were still visible
on the forecastle and headgear of the
schooner when she came in the other
day. Huge pieces of blubber dangled
from the stays and parts of the fore
rigging.
Captain Rosich and his crew explain
that the strange incident occurred the
other night, when the schooner was
on Point Reyes. Laden with cargo
OF lumber from Port Gamble, the wind
TANNER was sailing along at lively
clip, with fresh breeze astern, when
suddenly shock ran through the YES
sci. The impact was not sharp or
heavy enough to have been caused
by collision with another craft, and
the crew was beginning to believe
that 1t had passed over a submarine
disturbance, when the lookout came
dashing aft over the deck load to give
them the surprising news that the
ship had struck whale.
He must have been sleeping" said
