CiuKiiTo I)i.m. All Jliat we
eat and drink passes over the top of
tl;o windpipe,- without a particle ever
entering it, -although the opening is
larger than a ilime. Jiecause the very
elfoit of swallowing draws over the
open top a lleshy trap -door, which lits
so closely, that not even a p u tkle of
air can pass but the instant' '"what is
swallowed has passed over the trap
door downward,, it opens up with a
spring, and we go on -breathing as if
nothing' had ever happened; but if. we
attempt to swallow a.rything too
huge, this trajxloor belrigat the nar
rowest part of the t-.rtss.irre, U kej it
closed, not a partie'e of air can enter
the lungs, and we die in a moment, of
suffocation, as in drowning or suioth

chewed and sw;dhived. Jf. in eating,
a man has a sharp knife, and cuts his
meat wholly iu two, he may but two
or three of these pieces in his mouth
and chew, and swallow without dan
ger ; but if the knife is dull, tloes not
divide the pieces wholly, two pieces
may "be tied together with one of these
little strings, and while you have
swallowed one part uearest t lie .swal
low the other part may be near the
teeth, and both held by the string,
which holding the two parts: together

A long hair in a mouthful of food

"strangled by a hair." ''Strintr

with a sharp knife ; should be taken
