As we have again reached the season
when many deaths are occurring from exces-
sive heat, the following suggestions of an
intelligent and experienced physician OF
Philadelphia in regard to the treatment of
cases of sunstroke are worth preserving:
LII every instance where person is found
faintng in the street on hot day, the first
thing to be done is to remove the person to
as cool and shady a place as can be found
and, 1t possible to where draught of air
is blowing at the time. Bystanders and
mere curious oilers should be kept from
crowding around. The next is to send in
all directions for doctor or a skilled apoth-
ecary. But as it frequently happens that
neither doctor nor an apothecary can be
had in time, those who take charge of the
sufferer should know how to act for they
may save life. For their information the fol-
lowing treatment is suggested:
They should understand that there are
two morbid conditions resulting from ex-
cessive heat. These differ somewhat in
their symptoms, and require a somwhat
different treatment. The first of these occur
during hot weather, after undue exertion on
the part OF the person thus affected. The
man is faint, perhaps unable to move,
though he can generally be reused he has
feeble pulse and cool and moist skin. Here
there is simply loss of nervous power and
relief is promptly afforded by removing him
to cool, shady place, applying cold water or
ice to his head, and administering iced brandy
and water, iced wine and wafer, or other
stimulant. In the other and more fatal form
of this affection, a different set of SYMPTOMS
show themselves. Here the patient sudden
~ tails to the ground, completely Unconscious,
his skin is pungently hot and dry, his breath
ing hurried, commissions are not uncommon,
and If proper treatment be not promptly re-
sorted to, death soon takes place. In this
case, also, the patient should be promptly re-
moved to- cool and shady spot, perfectly pri-
yate, 50 that the crowd may be kept off. His
clothing should be stripped off and his whole
BODY should oe rubbed with ice from head to
1901, and pieces Of ice should be kept under
the armpts. This should be steadily perse-
vered with until the patient is restored. or
until doctor arrives, or until it is plain chat
the case is beyond discovery. This treatment
has been found to be SO eminently Successful
by one OF our best physicians that he feels
justified in saying, from his own knowledge
and observation, that if applied promptly re-
covery is almost certain. -

HOW TO ENGINEER A CLAIM THROUGH

Washington Correspondence of the Gin Times
Another widow lady has been press

also been successful. Her name is Mar

who obtained a patent some years ago
for an improvement in zinc paint, which
patent his widow desires to have ex-
tended. She is possessed of indOmitable
perseverance, is gOod-looking, intelli-
gent, and highly educated. She stated
her own case to the House Committee on
Patents, and the bill she was interested
in passed the House, and went to the
Senate. She knew if it was not attend
ed to quickly it would go over to the
next session, and perhaps might not be

quently, on Wednesday afternoon she
took q position in the marble room, and

grave and dignified Senators till she
succeeded in gaining all in her favor ex-
