In many such cases it will be found that the fatal result is -produced by avoidable indiscre tion, amounting in some cases to reckless stiain on the physical or mental power, or indulgence in the passions.' !' Apart frorti such irdiscretions, the 'occurrence 'of sud den death from heart 'disease would reajlr be less common."

Young itcgao h&U a mole or wart on the face, which was cut with a razor in the hands o an inexperienced person, who undertook to shave him in a barn. It did not pro 'uce lock-jaw, as stated, but paralysis, and ii wa irom tne ettects ol tnis uiscase mai he died.; Dr. U.S. Sill attended him. Dr. S. says that while the whole right tide was paraiy7.nl, the left lesr and aim became rt gid and the face turned over the left shout der. The mole or wart cut was on the left side,! which no doubt produced the contraction of the head and limbs ot the sids.
