LIFE-RESTORING DRUG
Dr F. H. McMechan, who has attended the National Anaesthesia Research Society Conference in Chicago, declares that while medical science may sometimes‘give life to the dead, it cannot restore brain power. Tho doetor stated that a woman in Georgia, restored to life three
years ago, is still living, but she is an imbecile, and does not (realise that she is alive. This is an unusual case, he said, as in order to bring back life to the dead the body should be vigorous and not worn out. "Adromalin, the most powerful stimulant: known, can give the tremendous shock to the heart necessary to restore life," continued Dr McMechan.
