With equal likelihood the Ellis-Pidgeon doings will add up to a well-acted romantic involvement...
...Clinic's records of cardiac patients. These revealed that people who suffer an attack of coronary thrombosis between the ages of 30 and 40 have excellent chances of survival. This record contradicts "the comment frequently heard that coronary thrombosis in the early age periods is likely to be fatal, because . . . the heart is unprepared for the accident." Men in the 40's also have fair chances of living a few years after the "accident." Greatest danger occurs in the fifth and sixth decades of life. Several Mayo Clinic patients lived from 15 to 17 years after their heart...
