Pulse Just 1s, Man Busy.

COTTAGE GROVE, April IA.
L. Flynn, of this city, is a puzzle to
medical science. He has lived for
months with a pulse beat of 80 a
minute, that would mean certain
death to normal persons.
During Mr.. Flynn's illness his pulse
beat was as low as 13 minute, re-
naming that way for several days
and missing often. During all the
time Mr.. Flynn was cheerful, refus-
ed TO go to bed and planned on the
time when he again would be around
doing a regular days work. During
much of his illness Mr.. Flynn did the
chores about the house.
