REVIVING THE HEART.
JUDGE AND A VEGETARIAN.
"IS THAT A GROUND FOR DIVORCE ?”
DISCOVERED BY GERMAN
PROFESSOR...
STRANGE EXPERIMENTS ON FROGS,
It has just been reported from Innsbruck that Professor Haber landt of Germany has discovered the hormone of the heart with the aid of which he has been able to "cause animal hearts that had been removed from the body to beat again although from two to three and a half days had elapsed since their removal and although they had already censed to beat of their own accord.
various
Harmanes are stimulants dis- internal charged by scretion glands and conveyed by means of the blood circulation and the lymph, to the remotest parts of the body where they exer- cise a specific influence on certain cells and organs.
Professor Haberlandt's discovery, anithe Winner Neue Freie Presse remarks, goes to the very root of the problem of the heart and its It has been known Junctioning" long since that hearts, especially those of frogs, continue to bent after being cut out of the body even when the latter is in a state. of decomposition.
But what. Professor Haberlandt has now been able to do, is some thing quite different. He cut out the hearts of some frogs and placed thair upper parts together with the sait solution
vena cava IDIO
where they continued to beat.
He then found that the still beat- ing hearts.communicated their ac tion to the salt solution in such A way that the latter caused hearts that had been tempered from the in ing bodies of other flags more than the dumptly intimate, three days earlier and that had he
sume their beating.
It is quite possible that Profes sor Haberlandt's discovery will prove of very great importance to medical science. It may coable us to cender effective aid to failing hearts in the most natural way, The discoverer reckons with the possibility of using the hearts of laughtered cattle for the extrae tion of heart hormone which can then be utilised for curative pur- poee.
Once it has been made possible to obtain the new substance with a sufficient degree, of purity, there will be no reason why it should not be thus utilised, and this is merely a question of time. It is evident, therefore that the new discovery opens out a bright perspective to medical science, more especially to that section devoted to the treat- ment of heart disease.

Mr. Dodson added that, although egetarianism might have suited the husband, it certainly did not suit Mrs. Jones and the infant. The wife "became depressed. She had since made a statement in which she, azid:-.
Ever since and just before baby was born I have lived unhappily chiefs because my husband was a vegetarian.
He has knocked me
