TAKE TOOTH FROM
W0MAN'S LUNGS
MoIar, Lodged in Windpipe After
Visit to Dentist, Removed by
Rare Operation.

New York.-A dentist eight months
ago told Mrs Helen Petersburg. thirty
years old, OF AS East One Hundred
Fortieth street. that she needed 10
have several OF her teeth extracted.
Accordingly he administered an anes-
thetlc and performed the necessary
dental operation. Several minutes
after she left his office. however. she
started to cough violently, and con-
suited a physician as TO the cause.
II was found one OF the teeth had
become lodged In the windpipe and
gradually worked It's way down into
the spongy tissue OF the lungs. Spe-
ciallsts informed her II was a serious
case. and II any organic matter at
tached Itself TO the tooth and caused
pus 10 form II might even result in
death.

Finding no relief. she applied to st.
Mnrys hospital. where the stan sur
geons took X-ray pictures which
showed the tooth still lodged. unmoyed.
in the lung. below the tenth rib. II
she would submit to a rare and deli
cate operation. they told her-one
which only a certain specialist In
town. who preferred to remain anony-
nous. could do-she might recover.
Mrs. Petersburg consented and went
on the operating table. Twenty min
utes later the tooth had been removed
without any Ill effect.
The operation was performed with
what surgeons call bronchoscope.
which IL long. hollow half-inch
metal tube equipped with light on
one end. No anesthetic was used. but
an X-ray was directed on the lung dur
ing the entire 20 minutes.
Like Swallowing Sword.
Before the tube could be introduced
through the mouth Mrs. Petersburgs
head and neck were placed in a posi-
ton so that the lung. larynx. throat
and mouth were in perfectly straight
line. The principle involved. accord
ing to the surgeons, was the same as
sword swallowing. except that in the
latter the sword Is introduced into the
esophagus instead OF the larynx.
When the proper adjustment had
been made I'm assistant held the pa
tents head while the operating sur
geon inserted the tube. When the
mouth OF the tube had been placed
directly over the tooth pair Of spe-
cially constructed forceps were slipped
through the tube. The forceps grssped

Russ Unearths Ancient
CITY Near Simferopol

Berlin.-German archaeologists are
greatly interested In reports that the
Russian professor Sublnin, who for
years has been excavating near Sim
feropol, In the Crimea, has discovered
the ruins of a city which was in Its
prime during the time the Scythians
ruled the Crimea. This period, accord
ing to archaeologists who have studied
relics from Scythlc tombs, roughly ap-
pears to have begun about the Sixth
century before Christ and to have con-
tlnued to the Second century ammo
Domini. The Scythians at various
times fought for their existence
against Darius and Philip II Of Mace
don and other warriors of those ages.

Washington-The famous dye

acts of the Wilson war period has
been decided after a long and bitter
trial. Federal Judge Hugh NJ. Morris
dismissed the suit to set side the
sale OF seized chemical and dye pat
ents by the Alien Property Custodian
to the Chemical Foundation Inc.
The decision rebuked the govern
ment for including in the bill OF COM
plant a series of conspiracy charges
unsupported by evidence at the trial
and refuied the defense as well as
by documents filed by the govern
ment. The general public opinion that
the whole matter grew out OF an at
tempt OF the Germans TO regain their
pre-war prestige in dye by breaking
down the position OF United States
manufacturers, appears to be con-
irmed by the court decisions. Judge
Morris held there was no evidence OF
a conspiracy by American manufac-
turers to effect a monopoly through
the foundation.

1t was not the business of the
driver to look after the welfare of
his passengers; all he was required
to do was to reach a certain place
in a given time, and this he gen
orally did.
AS a class the western driver
was unique, and those of us who
knew him, cannot but regret his
passing. AS a manager of horses,
he was unsurpassed, and it mat
tered not whether the team he
drove was broken, or consisted of
wild bronchos just off the range,

were forced to obey his reins and
This required one kind of
courage, and of it he had ample
stock. But his business, at that

entitled him to be called a hero.

afterward. Then, too, the road
had many abrupt turns, rendering
it impossible to see far ahead.
There was no more ideal location
for a hold-up, than this canyon.
N. P. Langford, in "Vingilante
Days and Ways" speaks of riding
through Portneuf Canyon with a
driver named Charley. But this
man was mor loquacious than the
one who drove us. Ours was the
only driver | ever met who did not
like to talk. Eight or nine years
of facing constant peril, might
tend to make any man as gloomy
as was this Charley, who may also
have had a premonition of his ap-
preaching fate.
Another distinguishing charac-
teristic of a stage driver, was his
excellent memory. Apparently he
never forgot anything he heard. 1t
was my good fortune to be driven
twice through the Yellowstone
National Park by an ex-stage driv-
er commonly known as "Geyser

were superseded by automobiles.
