I felt nothing, knew nothing. I was amazed when they told me I had been 'dead' for five minutes." That was the reaction of Mrs. Bella Futterman, a Bronx housewife, whose heart stopped beating for five minutes until it was coaxed back into action with injections of the powerful adrenalin, artificial respiration and inhalators. To Dr. Maurice Roy Goodwin and his- nurse went full credit for the medical miracle which restored an apparently dead woman to life. Talking to Children. Mrs. Futterman was talking to her children in her apartment when she toppled off the sofa, unconscious from an asthmatic attack. Four minutes after he was summoned Dr. Goodwin arrived and, finding no trace of heart action or breathing, pronounced her dead. Not waiting to remove his overcoat, he started artificial respiration.

Bolger, mansfcer of the McHenry County Farmers' Co-operative Feed Mill opened a meeting of farmers in the K. of C. hall Wednesday night. And, he wasn't far off in Jiis calculations. 'Twas a full house. The large gathering assembled to hear a fine address delivered by Jim Murphy, president of Murphy .Products Company. The speaker of the evening dwelt on ihe proper balancing of rations in successful feeding of livestock. With a wealth of experience and information at his command, Mr. Murphy imparted sound principles to an interested crowd. Not a little of the speaker's comparisons bracketed the feeding of both human beings and livestock. In fact, at one point it was quite definitely established that a wife can change her husband's whole disposition merely through slight changes in his diet. Mr. Murphy, a bald-headed Irishman with a flare for the humorous side, drew a laugh from the crowd, with his mention of certain elements so necessary for/ the growth of healthy hairs4 The crowd took quite a fancy to the songs and tunes rendered by Evelyn Anderson and the Hamil Brothers.
