GIVES PART LEG TO ANOt Heroic French Soldier Cai Helps Maimed Fellow. Hero. EACH WOUNDED IN TIE Surgeons Are Watching a Remarkable Operation in Great Hospital in Paris--Bound Like Siamese Twins. Paris.-One of the most remarkable" surgical operations on record is now being performed' at the Grand Palais, the massive building usually used for the annual Salon, but now transformed Into a vast hospital. Here two sol diers lie side by side, bound together like Siamese twins, while a large por tion of the leg of one of them is be Ing slowly transferred into the leg of the other one. Noted surgeons gather about, watch ing the slow progress, which they re gard as marvelous both from a our gical standpoint and from the sent!. mental, one soldier calmly giving day by day part of his body to a fellow hero. Lie on Operating Table. The two men lie on their backs on a large operating table. They lie in op posite directions, the head of one near the feet of the other, like the figures on playing cards. They are among the most seriously wounded of the more youthful soldiers-one is twenty-six and the other twenty-three years old. The younger, Rousselot, was wound. ed in the leg at the battle of Mor hange in the early days of tI\e war. He was taken a prisoner to Germany, where the surgeons say he did not re ceive intelligent attention. Brought back here last September, It was ne cessary to perform a second operation to lengthen his leg 14 centimeters (about five and a half Inches). But after the extension was peformed, there was still a lack of bony matter between the two portions of the bro kon femur. --. SGrgeons Get an idea. , The other soldier, Tillette, an artil lery man, was seriously wounded in the leg two months ago In the desper. ate fight over Fort Dounumont. In a fleld operation his leg was amputated above the knee. Later it was found that a second operation was necessary in order to shorten the leg by some centimeters. It wits at this point that the sur. geons concluded that the one who need. ed the shortened leg could give ulp this portion to the soldier who needed the longer leg. Now, after some weeks, the two soldiers lie there on their hacks, the right thigh of Rousselot against t() left thigh of Tillette, bound together with the same surgical ban. dages so as to prevent the slightest shifting of the operated parts, until the phenomenon of transferring one leg to the other is accomplished.
