Cat Brings Rat Home
ior Kitten’s Playmate
Asbury Park, N. J.—Employees of a
Main street grocery store were treated
to the unusual spectacle of a rat play
ing about with Mollle, a local cat, and
her four kittens. What made it most
unusual Is that Mollle Is a feline
known to be rough on rats, and had
)ust killed two rodents before taking
tip with this one.
The rat, ungrateful that Mollle had
spared his life, tired of his strange
playmates and tried to wander away,
but Mollle picked him up by the scuff
of the neck and returned him among
her brood. He climbed up on Mollle's
back and went to sleep.

POLICE HELPED AS
DRUG CHEATS DEATH
Holdup Suspect, Wounded
in Fight, Diet Twice.
Detroit, Mich.—John Jones, a negro,
twenty-two years old, suspected of be
ing a holdup man, was shot as he
dived out of an alley In a running bat
tle with the police, and died twice.
He was removed to the receiving
hospital, where he died before the po
lice could question him and secure In
formation regarding holdups which
they were sure he could furnish.
Death had cheated the law, for dead
men tell no tales.
Silence then stepped In and cheated
death. Dr. Courtney Fremont, a mem
ber of the hospital staff, injected a
«harge of adrenalin Into the heart
muscle of the man who had been dead
about half an hour and he came back
to life. He lived for five hours, giv
ing the pojire ample time In which to
question him and secure such Infor
mation as he was willing to give. He%
then died again.
Victory of Scionco.
The shooting and double death of
Jones took place severs I weeks ago,
but passed practically unnoticed sa •
news Item. As a shooting and single
death It was just one more Hem In
the grist of crime news that passes
daily out of the police department. I
The scientific angle, however, became
a matter of medical record and aa
such It has survived as another al
most unnoticed victory of science.
Bringing persons hack from the
grave to live again la no longer a nov
elty. It has been done scores of times. |
When fhe miracle was Drat performed
It received little publicity. It seemed
ns If there must be some fake about
It and, of course, newspapers could not
be victimized by fakers, so the stories
w*ere published with numerous quali
fications hedged at>out all statements.
Now that It has become well estab
lished as a bona fide miracle of sci
ence It does not possess quite the nov
elty It did at first, and even spectacu
lar events such as the Detroit Inci
dent pass almost unnoticed.
Baby Brought to Ufa.
The first case on record in which
a baby born dead was brought back to
life occurred In a Brooklyn hospital.
Mrs. Bertha Isaacson gave birth to
twins, n boy and a girl, at the Boro
Park Maternity hospital. The hoy,
weighing three pounds, was born dead.
The' girl weighed two and a half
pounds. Dr. Philip Mlninberg admin
istered adrenalin to the boy by hypo
dermic Injection. It stimulated the In
fant's heart to action and life re
turned.
Both Infants were fed with a medi
cine dropper and were raised in an
incubator until they had attained suf
ficient growth. The boy who was
brought back to life Is still alive, but
Ids sister died before reaching her
fourth birthday. They were born on
Lincoln’s birthday, 1923. Since then
the miracle has been repeated scores
of times In Brooklyn as well as else
where throughout the country.
In Philadelphia a few years ago a
man of forty who had suffered from tu
berculosis half his life died. Twelve
doctors gathered around his bed and
for an hour applied every known test
for a sign of life, without finding any.
At the end of two hours rigor mortis
had set In. A small amount of adre
nalin was then Injected Into the heart
At the end of two minutes the skin
assumed a pink tinge which gradually
changed to a flesh color. Ten min
utes later the man was breathing
faintly. His eyelids fluttered and he
sighed as though awakening from
sleep.
**How do you feel 7** the mao was
asked.
“All right," he answered In a tired
but very ordinary tone.
“Did you have any dreams?” j
“No. I slept" Hit tired eyes dosed
"No nnusual aetiaaUonr
•Na"
Shortly afterward be returned to so
unending dreamless sleep.
