tioners the warning that we would give to
the owner of fine clock To the latter
we would say, clean the case If you will,
even move the hands or regulate the pen
dulum if it is necessary, but be very, very
careful about medling with the works.
Leave that to the clockmaker The hui
man body is infinitely more complex and
delicate in its mechanism than clock,
and yet its works are meddled with daily
by thousands of ignorant and utterly in
competent people.
Until the arrival of a medical man
much may be done for sufferer from
sudden illness or an accident; but, as far
as possible, medicines and meddlings of all
kinds with the internal arrangements of
the body should be avoided.
With this caution we will proceed with
our hints, most of which we owe to an
admirable little work called "Till the
Doctor Comes" recently issued by G. P.
Putnam d Sons, of New York.
IN Case Of Burns.-lf the victim OF the
accident be woman, 1t generally hap
pens that her clothes are burning, and
the hrst thing to be done is to put out the
hre. Begin by being very cool yourself,
and then be prompt and energetic. Make
her lie down on the floor, and roll over on
the flames until you can come to her as
slstance. seize coat. blanket, or a
piece of carpet, and after covering well
your own hands for another patient will
not be needed at such time-wrap her
up and extinguish the flames by smother
ing them. When the fire seems to be
out, drench the patient well with water,
else the clnders OF her clothes will burn
her. Then give her drink of something
warm and stimulating and send for the
DOCTOR: In the meantime, II the doctor
iVes at distance and IL is necessary to

the clothes very carefully, cutting and
ripping Wherever necessary, and cover
the burns with soft linen cloths, wet with
