HEART REVIVED BY MASSAGE
Or. Petit of Buenos Aires Performs
Remarkable Feat on Woman Patient
Who Receivers After Long FIGHT.


Doctor Petit of Buenos Aires waa
shocked on making an incision in q
woman's abdomen to find that nc
blood flowed and that his patient was
pulseless. She had collapsed under
the chloroform. Artificial respiration
had no effect. Caffeine was injected
both under the skin and into the veins
with no result.
The surgeon then extended the In
cision he had made, inserted his hand
and took hold of the woman's heart to
massage it. He squeezed the heart
with both hands, but at first it did not
resrond. All at once powerful con-
traction was felt, followed by others
The massage was stopped, but had to
be resumed at once. The .contractions
reappeared but the massage was con-
tinued and inhalations of oxygen were
given. At last the patient was out Of
danger.
She remained unconscious for q
long time. and when she recovered
had no idea how close she had been to
passing out, Her recovery was very
slow, being complicated by violent de.
lirium, but she got well at last.

MAN GIVEN UNIQUE SENTENCE
English Judge on Record as Ordering
Him to Serve the Preceding

One of the most famous members OF

when a jury yawned through long
series of testimony, and finally when
the majority of the II good men AND
true seemed on the verge of going 70
sleep and the rest to have lost all in
terest in the case. he abruptly closed
the testimony and the jury filed our.
Although the evidence proved the priS-
oner innocent, and even the prosecut-
ing attorney admitted it, the jury
brought in verdict Of guilty.
The judge being thus forced to give
sentence, did so as follows: Prisoner
at the bar, your counsel thinks you in.
nocent, the counsel for the prosecution
thinks you innocent, think You inno-
cent. But jury of your countrymen
in the exercise of such common sense
as they possess, which does not seem
to be much, have found you guilty,
stupidity enough, and it YeTnains for
me to pass upon you the sentence Of
the law. The sentence Is that you be
kept in Imprisonment for one day, and
that day to be yesterday, therefore you
may go about your business"

Beads for Insulation.

In certain installations, such az
radio equipement,. arc lamp wiring and
laboratory apparatus, it is often nee.
essary to resort to beads for insular.
ing bare wires. Heretofore, says the
Scientific American, the beads have
been of a plain design, with rounded
ends. resulting in a rigid covering
which prevented the covered wire
from being bent as desired, or left
barred sections of the wire between
the beads because fewer beads had
to be strung in order to allow for
bending.
An English concern has recently
introduced a new type of bead which
is rounded at one end and followed
out at the other, thus permitting Of
one bead fitting into the hollow OF
the next bead These beads permit
of covering wire for its full length,
vet do not interfere with the bending
of said wire.

wondered, and wondered, what would

once been moved to say, was far

Perhaps he even considered the fact
that she would make better wife for
him, and better mother for his chill
dren, than some fragile and over-cul-
tured woman of patrician house that
had about run out. AT any rate, Jim
my Fayne, the ultra-spoiled, had de-
cided that he would marry her.
During those weeks that had been
made happy by an occasional hour at
the home of the Dales, Fayne had not
once mentioned marriage. He figured,
and wisely enough, that to be too
quick with his proposal would be to
lose everything.
But now he meant to propose, for he
knew that Miss Littleford intended GO
ing home for visit-and he knew that
when she went home she would see
Carlyle Dale. The truth was, of
course, that Miss Littleford was go
ing to Tennessee to attend the Oc-
tober term of court at Gainesville.

there was an easy-to-read book in her
