Preventing Premature Rurials.

The fear of being buried alive al
ways has been, and is, SO widespread
that the French Academy of Science
some years ago offered a prize equal
to ST 500 for the discovery of some
means by which even the inexperi-
enced might at once determine wheth-
er, in a given case, death had ensued
or not A physician obtained the
prize. He had observed the following
well-knOwn signs: If the hand of the
suspected dead person is held towards
a candle or other artificial light, with
the fingers extended and one touching
the other, and one looks through the
spaces between the fingers towards
the light, there appears scarlet red
color where the fingers touch each
other, due to the blood still circulat-
ing; it shows itself through the tis-
sues which have not yet congested.
When life is entirely extinct, the phe-
nomenon of scarlet spaces between
the fingers at once ceases. The most
extensive and thorough trials estab-
lished the truth of his observation
