commit them to memory.
For dust in the eyes avoid rubbing: dash water
into them; remove cinders, etc.. with the round

Remove insects from the ear BY tepid water,
never put hard instrument into the ear.
Han artery Is cut, CON p,ees above the wound
ifa vein is cut compress b.low.
II choked. get upon all fjum and cough.
For slight burns dip the part in cold water; il
the skin is destroyed, cover with varnish.
Smother fire with carpets, ETC; water will
often spread burning oil. and increase danger
Before passing through smoke, take full
breath and then stoop low, but il carbon Is sus
pected, walk erect. ....f, .As..s.

A
WASHINGTON, Nov. l5-As anticipated In last
nights dispatches, the President 10 day turned
a deaf car 10 the appeals Of the leading rspubli.
can politicians Of Pennsylvania and Ph,ladel-
phia, and respectfully declined 10 appoint their
candidate for postmaster of the latter city for the
very good reason that he intended to adhere to
the rules Of the civil service commission and
promote the deputy postmaster. II Is needless
10 ray that this decision created quite cousts r
nation among most Of .ha delegation, who were
headed by Senator Cameron, Governor elect
Hartranft, and the mayor and osher city and
State officials Of notoriiy, and who, through the
mayor, had made special request that in view
Of the great political services they had rendered
in the late campaign, the civil service regula-
tons should not be applied to the Philadelphia
po1tmas,ership.
The President, however, saw no reason
why he should not adhere to his position,
even in political view, as the civil service
system was endorsed In the fifth plank Of the
PHILADELPHIA platform, and evidently did moi
attach much Importance to the declaration O1
the mayor that the redublican party in Phil
adelphfa did not think much Of the reform
system in appointments, and that pOstMas'
ter outside Of its rules would prove Of fal
more benefit to the party organization there
