slightly, he found the general condi-
ton satisfactory. He administered a
heart stimulant and soon the pope
went to sleep.
Throughout the day the tempera-
ture was normal, the pulse remained
at about S5 and the respiration 90.
This indicated considerable amel-
ioration in the bronchial symptoms,
which was evidenced by easi er breath
ing and freedom for long periods
from cough.
In addition, the pope was able to
take some nourishment and he show
ed much interest in what was happen
ing about him. When Professor
Marchiafava allowed the pontlff' 8
nephew to enter the room. there was
an affecting scene. The frail and
aged pontiff and the young and ro-
bust priest embraced tenderly, the
latter being unable to restrain his
emotion at finding the pope so chang
ed physically.
Professor Marchiafava tonight re-
pcated his assurances that if prudence
were exercised. the pope would re-
cover. He declared that his eXamna-
tion of the chest showed that the in
flamation which yesterday was mark
ed on left side, has been checked and
was actually diminishing, while the
bronchial sounds were less notice

After his afternoon sleep, it was OBJ

not to talk, he insisted on explaining
how he had just awaked from a most
