PBPULABJALLACIES,
Some Old Fashioned Notions
That Still Obtain Credence.
THE CYCLE OF THREE IDEA
A Drowning Man May Sink Not Only
Thrice, but a Dozen Times, and Stil
Be Rescued—Congestive Chills anc
the Merging of Diseases—Law Points
Three physicians were standing ii
a downtown drug store the other da;
when one. who had been looking a
an evening paper, exclaimed: "Urea
Caesar, here it is again! 1 see It it
the papers at least twice a month.”
“What’s that?” asked one of the oth
ers.
“It’s that popular fallacy about i
drowning man sinking for the thirt
time. Here it says, ‘Just as he wai
sinking for the third time he was suve<
by the timely arrival,’ etc. The nex
time I see this third time business i
probably will read, ‘He sank for thi
third time before aid could be had am
was drowned.’
“Why will people get that fool Ide:
that sinking for the third time mus
needs be fatal to a drowning man
Why, bless you, I saw a man sink i
half dozen times before ho was rfes
cued nlive. An uncle of mine, wit
nesses said, never sank but once, am
he was drowned. The number of time
a man sinks has nothing to do wltl
his drowning. He may sink but once
and he may go beneath the water an;
number of times. It all depends upoi
the person who is drowning, his phys
leal condition and how quickly th
lungs fill with water.”
“That cycle of three,” suggested an
other of the doctors, "Is carried a Ion;
by those who insist that a person die
In his third suggestive chill. IJut thl
Is not true. The same rule holds gooi
In congestive chills as in the case o
the drowning man. A person may di
In the first or he may have a doze:
and still live. The rule of three doe
not obtain there either.”
The first physician, with great dis
dain, then told how many ignoran
persons would swear that "if ye gl
th1 malary an’ it runs into typhoi
fever an’ it runs into newmony it’
shore death.”
■•There’s that same old rule of thre
again.” he continued almost uugrllj
"First and foremost, one disease doe
not run into another. There’s no sucl
thing as a collision between diseases
ns rnnuy believe. If one has malar!
he has that and that alone. The sam
tiling Is true of typhoid fever am
pneumonia. Each one is a separat
and distinct trouble, and a doctor wit:
any sense should be able to diagnos
his malady from symptoms which ar
always present in each and entire!;
different.’’
From popular fallacies in reganj t
medicine the conversation drifted t
fallacies regarding the law. A lawye
present was called upon to explaii
first oue thing and another, when on
of the bystanders said:
"I made a bet the other day that i
person had no right to touch a deai
body until the coroner arrived, and
wron."
"Who decided the question for you?
asked the lawyer smilingly.
"Well,” said the mail sheepishly, “1
was a bartender, but he’s an educatei
fellow and is a good judge of the law.'
"You speak of the law ns if It wer
something to be judged like cuttle a
n fat stock show,” replied the attorney
"There is no law on any statute bool
in any state in the United States whicl
says one may not touch a body befor
the arrival of the coroner.
“In case of murder the old Englisi
common law used to require that th'
body of the murdered one be left jus
ns it lay until viewed by one in author
ity.
“That was done, it can plainly b
seen, for the purpose of preserving th
surroundings intact so that whateve
evidence might be there would not b
disturbed. In case of a murder today
especially If any mystery were con
nected with it, common sense wouh
teach a nerson to leave evervthinar in
tact, not alono for the coroner, but fo
the police officials as well. But shouh
the body of a murdered man be rnovei
there Is no law covering it unless i
could be proved that the person wb
moved the body did it with the inten
tion to destroy evidence. In cases o
suicide or death by accident ther
could bo no objection to moving tb
body anywhere in the city if done witl
humane or some other proper motive.'
“I’ll tell you what is the law.” sail
a stoop shouldered, long armed mai
who had been listening long enougl
to get the gist of the discussion. “If i
fellow sees a murder through a paw
of glass he can’t be a witness in tb
case.”
“Oh, piffle!” exclaimed the attorney
*T’m going to lunch. That’s the limit
I was waiting for some yap to sprlni
that. If that was the case and a mui
der should be committed in this roon
half a dozen of us could not be com
petent witnesses, if your statement i
true, because we are wearing glasses
Glass is glass whether in a window o
on the nose. There is no such law a
that. That’s foolish.”
“I heard my grandfather say that,’
insisted the long armed man, “and h
know’d law too.”
“Yes,” retorted the exasperated at
tomey, “and he no doubt gave It ou
as law that a man could stand with hi
back against his own house and kil
any one who came within a eertab
distance of him. But he would hanj
‘for it unless he had mighty good dc
ge. All of those things are wha
