to the time Of the Pharoahs in Egypt;
in fact, she was Did when Greece and
Rome were striplings in years. Rome

but Damascus is twice as old, and

HEART WOUNDS NOT FATAn.
Modern Surgeon Operates. and the
Results Have Been Satisfactory
Almost Beyond Belief.

Almost Beyond Belief.
There seems to be no limit to the
wonderful things modern surgery can
accomplish. Recently DR.. Francis
Stewart Of Philadelphia reported five
cases in which he had been obliged
All the patients recovered. One Of
them lived for five years and then
succumbed to pulmonary tuberculosis.
The difficulties of this operation
call for wonderful technique and skill.
Clots are liable to form and when
swept into the circulation the patient
dies as if shot through the brain.
Constant motion of the can calls
for a quick eye and rapid, steady
work. It is interesting to note that
at the present time one-half of all
such cases coming into the hospitals
are saved.
A Partisan surgeon restored heart
action In a case Of actual death. The
patient was killed by an automobile.
Believing that something could be
done the surgeon ordered the patient
to be put upon the operating table
half an hour after death had been pro-
nounced. The chest cavity vas OPEN
ed in fifty seconds. A pint Of blood
was found in the heart sac from q
wound in the heart muscle two and a
half inches long. This blood was re-
moved, the heart was sewn up. and
massage was begun. In a few minutes
the pulse was felt at the wrist. The
heart continued to beat more than
half an hourand then stopped. 1t was
found at autopsy that injuries to other
organs had been too great for recov-
cry. which would have been certain
had the heart alone eel involved.
