Mrs. Marasco was carried to the hospital from her homo suffering from internal "Dr. C. C. Sichel told the young husband as gently as possible that his wife's death was only a question of hours.

"She simply has no more blood," ex- plained the physician. "Her veins have been' drained to almost the last drop, and her heart action cannot continue much longer. There might be one chance for her if it were possible to transfuse a' large quantity of healthy blood into her veins." "Couldn't' you take my blood demanded the husband." "She can have it all." "And Dominick threw off his jacket and, rolling up his sleeve, exhibited a mighty arm. The young husband was seated In a chair beside his wife, and his left arm was bared to the elbow. The doctors offered to put him under an anaesthetic, but he refused to take it, saying that he wanted to see the effect of the operation.

Domjniek said he was ready, and Dr. Newult made an incision in the main artery of his left arm. At the same time Dr. Sichermade a similar operation In Mrs. Marasco's arm, and Dr.

Slowly the coJor which had faded from Mrs. Marasco's face returned to her cheeks until they were actually rosy.

Her pulse gained strength and her breathing became easier and stronger. As his wife gained, however, Dom inick slowly lost his strength. His lips, compressed together tightly, turned slowly from a rich red to an ashen color. The color left his cheeks, and the perspiration started from his face. The doctors watched him carefully as he grew weaker moment by moment At last the ten minutes were up, and it was evident to the watching surgeons that Dominick had reached, the end of his strength.

He was hurried into a ward khd put to bed beside his wife. When he recovers he will ba as strong as ever, the doctors say. who were supposed to be not far distant, and he has not since been seen. Search for the boy was kept up for several days, and the river in the vicinity where he was last seen was dragged in the hope of finding his body in case he had drown edi, The only trace found, however, was a part of the child's clothing, much torn and shredded.
