B. Cannon, professor of physiolog,
at the Harvard Medical School, has
perfected scientific method of bring
ing back the departed spark of ami
nal life. He declares that if the new
method should be employed in each
and every case of death, large per-
centage of the supposed inanimate bo-
lies could be revived.
The method consists of the introduce
ton of tube or catheter into the
Iharynx pulling the tongue. forcing the
back part of the tongue against the
roof of the mouth by pressure applied
far back under the chin, putting d
weight on the abdomen to keep air
from being forced into the stomach
connecting the catheter with a bellows
and pumping air into the lungs.
