Wonder what's going happen next. Science is playing smash. Early in March n surgeon stood with the beating heart of a live man held in his hand, lie took in the organ, put it back in the right place, and the mad lived on. The operation was one of a series of marvels of the last two or three years through which the heart has ceased to be the one part of the body sacred from the daring knife and needle. And now there is news of the heart, massage. The vital or- is exposed and subjected to gen- manipulations which restore its beating. So life returns to persons who have seemed to die. Nor do the newest marvels of surgery stop with operations upon tho heart. Within a week there has been an- at a Philadelphia hospital the miracle of splicing nerves. An interrupted telegraphic circuit of the body was remedied, just as a Western Union line is restored to service by the piecing of two wires. The world moves on, and tho doc- tors with it.
