GAS HAZARD OF

discovery Just Made Cuts Down
Danger From Fumes Of
Carbon Monoxide.

NATURALIZATION monoxide gas
poisoning, the nemesis Of workers In
mines, mills, garages, tunnels and va
rious industries, Is well as the occu-
pant Of the home, is the subject of an
Important discovery just made by ex-
perts of the Pittsburgh station Of the
United States bureau Of mines.
The discovery affords a quick and
sure method Of determining the pres
SAGE Of carbon monoxide poison in the
blood, and, according to the experts,
viii not only prove q boon to sufferers
from the dreaded gas. but viii be use
9Ml In a legal way, In that it will prove
conciusively the cause Of such deaths,
DR.. r. r. Sayers and W. B. Yant,
chemist Of the bureau. made the dis
oeyery, and, after months of research
werk and actual tests upon human be-
Ezss, they have reported that their
simple system could be operated by
anyone.
Right Treatment Assured.
They say that within fifteen min
ntss after the test Is made the amount
& carbon monoxide poison In the
blood of the subject could be deter
nained, thus insuring the right and
prompt treatment for the patient.
Heretofore, doctors treating carbon
monoxide cases have had to wait from
twenfy~four TO forty-eight hours for a
blood test before they could begin
proper treatment.
The Sayers-Yant discovery came SIS
tubes in New York. While the bureau
Of mines experts were engaged in the
problem Of as~certaining a proper ven
hlakang system for the tubes under
the river SO as to render automobile
gases harmless to those passing
through, they struck upon the new
method Of determining the presence
Of carbon monoxide In the blood.
Big Aid In Rescue Work.
Discussing the value Of the discov-
cry to mines and mills, Nj. Yant
painted out that heretofore rescue
workers have been hampered in treat
Ing stricken men because they did not
know whether the patient suffered
from shock or carbon monoxide gas,
Likewise, this was true in garage and
tunnel accident cases. The patients
are always given oxygen, but it re
CURED an entire day or more to de-
tsrTnine If they had carbon monoxide
poisoning.
With the discovery at hand, Mr..
Yant said, rescue workers In the In
Eiustries will know whether the victim
OF an accident has carbon monoxide
poison In his blood; will know the
exact amount Of such poisoning, and
q proceed to give proper and prompt
treatment within fifteen minutes after
sae piatisnt comes int their hands.

A Clever Stroke.

An eminent lawyer was once cross
examining a clever woman, mother of
the plaintiff in a breach of promise
action, and was completely worsted in
the encounter of wits. At the close,
however, he turned to the jury and
exclaimed:
you saw. gentlemen, that even
was but a child in her hands. What
must my client have been?"
By this adroit stroke of advocacy
he turned his failure into a success.
