II is but natural for the reader to
ask here, "what 10 your remedy
"what should we dor" In all cases
of shock, asphyxia or suspended
animation, from any cause, the one
great demand of the system 10, air
In the lungs. In cases Of drowning
there is but little IL any water gets
into the lungs. The drowning
party will swallow II into the
stomach. Then get the water out
of the stomach AZ quickly as posi-
BILE by laying the body across a
log. barrel or turn the head down
hill and press the stomach. Then
place the body in warm bath, or
wrap II in warm blankets, or the
best warming makeshift at hand,
and blow air into the lungs. This
is the treatment for any cause of
apparent death) Press the hand
just below the stomach, pressing
upward SO as to force the air out oil
the lungs. Repeat this about 10
times a minute until natural breath
ing is established. As long as the
body is warm and limp keep up the
effort If 1t be hours, days or weeks.
Much good may be done by judi
cious use of stimulants admins
tered hypodermically.' There are
other means that may be resorted
to to great advantage, such as fore.
IDLY dilating the sphincter muscles
in the employment of which any
good doctor will take pleasure in
instructing those who wish to know
how. Of course il is to be expected
that in all such emergencies ply
stefan will be called as quickly as
possible; however il is well il the
doctor knows what is best to do
when he gets there. But there is
much the laity may TO advantage
while the ply stefan is being
sought. The great mass of people
should be informed on these very
important matters; somebody may
be saved from a most horrible fate.
In the life history of Mr.. George
Hayward, whose interview is given
above, there is something of addi-
iional interest, which | will men,
ton in conclusion. When he was
- years old, and while travelling in
South Wales, he was stung on the
palmar surface at the base of the
left thumb by large cent? pcde.
About one ounce of flesh dropped
ont few days afterward, but he
suffered no further constitutional
trouble. The sting of this reptile
is considered almost proverbially
fatal. Fifteen years ago his leg
was fearfully laceratcd by a mad
dog. He has never had any symp-
toms of hydrophobia, although
many animals bitten by the same
dog went mad.
Please accept my apology for the

tons. The question is of more i'm
portance than might appear at first
thought, and 1 hope the discussion
of il in the NEWS may prove OF in
terest and profit to your intelligent
readers. The greatest desire have
in presenting these facts Is to call
attention to the possibility of en-
tombing our friends alive and the
importance of being certain life is
extinct before consigning them to
their last resting places. In this
country il is not uncommon for the
living to bury their dead in from II
to "A hours. II Is also common to
read in the daily papers of sudden
deaths by heart failure, sun stroke,
gas, asphyxia, drowning, chloro-
form, lightning, electricity and
many other causes of shock to the
nerves, causing sudden death. In
a majority of these cases there will
be no grounds on which to base
doubt as to actual dissolution, but
while this is true il is also true that
some are only apparently dead.
The history of cases of shock, as
phyxia, catalepsy aud suspended
animation, shows that the best PLY :
sicians are often mistaken aud
readily make out the death certih-
cate, setting forth the cause of
death. etc, which in larger cities
must always be had from the coro-
ner or attending physician before
the body can be buried. This care
lessness is largely due TO force of
habit. We Americans, being

take Il for granted and so act, with

SUFFERING BM SILENCE.


Women are the real heroes of the
world. Thousands on thousands of them
endure the dragging torture of the ills
peculiar to womankind in the silence of
home. They suffer on and on-weeks,
months, years. The story of weakness
and torture Is written in the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, in the list
less eyes, in the lines of care and worry
on the face.
Unborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope Of
relief lies in the exposure of examina-
ton aud "local treatment.
Take ten cases of "female weakness"
and in nine of them 'local treatment"
Is unnecessary, There is no reason why
modest, sensitive women should sub
init to It. nEcELREE'S
