HOW TO STOP THE NOSE FROM BLEFI
No.-A correspondent writes the follow
ing Two years ago, while going dow
Broadway, blood commenced running
from my nose quite freely. | steppe,
aside and applied my handkerchief, in
tending TO repair to the nearest hotel
when q gentleman accosted me, saying
Just put piece of paper in you
mouth, chew it rapidly, and il will stol
your nose bleeding" Thanking hin
rather doubtfully, l did ms he suggested
and the flow Of blood ceased Immediately
have seen the remedy tried quite FIRE
qnently, always with success. Doubt
less any substance would answer tn,
same purpose as paper, the stoppage o
the flow of blood being caused probabl,
by the rapid motion Of the jaws, and tn,
counteraction Of the muscles and arterie,
connecting the jaws and nose. Physi
clans say that placing a small roll oil
paper or muslin above the front teeth
under the upper lip, and pressing hard
on the same, will arrest bleeding from
the nose, checking the passage of the
blood through the arteries leading to the
nose.
