A British Scandal.

The recent case in which q .OlBg wO-
board of a car when the train was going
at full speed, to avoid the approaches of a
fellow-passenger, is likely to make a great
stir in English society, rs the gentleman
turns Out to be Col. Valentine Baker of
the 10th HuSsars. The young lady is
Miss Rebecca Dickinson. who was going
on to London to join her family for a
European tour, a person OF good family
and character. Ordinary civiIities passed
between her aud Col. Baker. until the
latter asked her name. and, on being re-
fused, demanded it. He %thereupon grew
more and more indecent in his conduct;
her screams and efforts to communicate
with other compartments failed to bring
relief. although they We're heard, and she
swung u upon the ~tOOt-bOar'!, hanging
on the arm of her aSsaulter with one hand.
She passed through II station in this
position, when the statiOn-maStcr tele-
graphed Oh to stop the train. but before
the next station was reached >he was dis
covered and the train was stopped. Most
damaging admissions on the part of Baker
are sworn to, which, with all the circum-
stances, leaves no moral doubt that he be-
haved with great indecency. Military
society is reused, however, i'll his behalf,
Hawkins, the great lawyer, is retained by
him, and Sir Samuel Baker is among the
friends who will appear to testify to his
moral character.

How to Cure SunStroke.

believe Sunstroke and apOpleXy can be
cured almost surely if taken in any kind OF
time.
l.. Rub powerfully on the back head
and neck, making horizontal and down
ward movements. This draws blood away
from the front brain and vitalizes the in
voluntary nerves.
2. While rubbing call for cold water i'm
mediately, which1apply TO the face and to
the hair on the top and side head.
3. Call for a bucket Of water as hot as
car be borne and pour it by dipperfuls OF
the back head and neck for several min
utes. The effect will be wonderful for
vitaliZing the medulla Oblongata q; it vital
lies the whole body and the patient will
generally start up into full conscious life
in a very short time.
Last summer | was called in to see a
a state of coma, and his wife was agOnizing
over him, suppOsing him to be dead. He
had lain thus for about three hours. had
him brought out where he could get the
air, jerked off his clothes, rubbed his back
head and neck powerfully, slapped his
back, legs, and feet briSkly, and called for
iced water, which [ applied to his front and
and upper head. | then had a bucket of
hot water brought, which | poured on his
back head and neck. Before doing this |
had noticed some signs of life on applying
the cold water in front. but after pouring
a few minutes he started up, vomited,
and exclaimed, "All right" | spent in
all only about twenty minutes in thus re-
suscitating him.
He rose up, put on his clothes with a lit
tie help, and did not lose an hour more
from his business.
Persons of large, active brains and weak
bodies will be more liable to sunstrOke or
apoplexy, and should wear light-cOlored,
cool hats in summer, wet the hair occa-
sionally. and if they feel a brain pressure
coming on, should rub briskly on the back
neck, and put cold water on the front and
top head. These remarks, if needed, will
prevent great danger and great suffering,
as | have never known this method to fail.

CURRENT TOPICS.

LADY FRANKLIN. widow OF Sir John
Franklin. is dead. Her devotion to the
memory OF her husband has made her
famous wherever the story of her heroic
efforts to learn tidings of him in the far
North is known. She was born III 1902,
and was the second wife OF Sir John, their
marriage having occurred in 1923. She
went with her husband 10 Van Dicmen's
Land in 1886. The Erebus and Terror
sailed in 1915, and no tidings of them hay
nIg been gained, in 1880 Lady Franklin
sent out a ship At her W expense on Il
voya-c Of discovery. and again in 1867 sent
out the steamer Fox, under Captain Me
CiintOck. who. in the summer OF
i-j9. discovered on the shore of King
Williams Land a record deposited by her
husbands company in 1913. This dOcu-
ment stated that Sir John died June II,
1917, and that the ships were abandoned
April y, 1915. Still Lady Franklin was not
satisfied, and always chung to the belief
either that her husband was alive or that
some of the party, or further news of
them. might be found. The Pandora. the
last snip fitted out by Lady Franklin, left
England for the Arctic regions only a few
weeks ago. Her prayers and those of
Christians throughout the world. which
she sought, We're of no avail to keep her
a I'VE until the vessels return.

one. in the shape Of his note at ninety days,
which the party of the second part took
and two loving souls were united But
when the note became due, and the former
lover demanded its liquidation, the fond
husband refused payment on the plea of
''no value received" and suit has been
brought to recover the amount The hus-
band sets up the plea that the girl was not
worth tnkcr's condemnation, and for fur
thcr answer states that if the plaintiff will
take the fair creature of his hands hc will
gladly pay the note and throw in his lovely
bride. So the case stands at this writing.
