TEMPORARY BLOOD SUBSTITUTE.
Why Saline Solution Is Injected Into the
Veins of Wounded Persons.

Occasionally in cases of serious
wounds where there has been great loss
of blood the published reports state
that saline solution was injected into
the veins to supply the deficiency. The
average reader. however, has very
vaeae if any idea how solution Of
salt takes the place of blood.
Net to go into complete analysis Of
the blood, ii Is sufficient to note that of
000 parts 80. 10 is composed Of Wa
ter, albumen 65 parts, sodium and po-
tassium 1911, coloring matter sup
piled by the red blood corpuscles) 1913,
leaving only some u parts to be COM
posed of fbrin. fat, calcium and mag
ues ium. etc. Where there is serious loss
IF blood a state Of collapse sets in, be
cause the normal weight Of blood being
reduced lie hearts action is dimin
ished, there being less resistance for
that organ 10 overcome.
To countefact the result Of shock aud
collapse It Is necessary to stimulate the
heart by restoring the normal weight,
in other words to get it to work by CIV
ing 1t something to work on As tie
analysis shows, Of 900 parts Of blood
nearly 500 are composed Of water and
sodium, and therefore a plain saline
solution makes a good substitute. The
heart does not know the difference, and
it goes to pumping away as usual Us
soon a. this imitation blood gets III the
veins. The saline solution serves to tide
the patient over the danger point As
the food Is converted into chyle, new
blood is formed the red corpuscles are
supplied rapidly from the normal tissues,
and the saline solution is thrown of
through the secretions in the usual way.
Formerly TRANSMISSION of blood was
the means employed, but this always
Objectionable method has been suppllnt-
ed. The greatest objection to the trans
fusion Of blood from one person TO an
other was that to supply the necessary
amount to restore the wounded patient
it was inevitable that the volunteer
should be almost as badly drained. So
that the physician would have two pa
tients on his hands where he had one.
Besides there was always the risk of
transfusing disease to the patient with
the Others blood Dogs and sheep have
been sacrificed to surgery for this pur
pose, but most people prefer to use blood
of their own manufacture to any im
ported from beasts or their fellow cIea-
lures. st. Louis Post Dispatch.

A DUEL WITH BIG GUNS.
A Stirring and Chivalrous Incident of tn

bearer, (which your people call Jenny,
IS beautiful gun, but we think we
have one as good. We should like TO
have a fair duel with her. "
The challenge was accepted, and ev-
erything arranged for II O'Clock next
day. When the time arrived, all the bat
teries ceased firing, and the two armies
looked on.
Our sailors gun detachment, " says
Sir Daniel Lyons, amounted on the para

Russians. The Russians returned the
compliment The English gun was
given the first shot as the senior gun. 1t
struck the side of the embrasure. Then
they fred--a very good shot too.
1.-THE third shot from jenny vent
clean through the Russian embrasure
and up went two gabions. The blue
jackets jumped up ON their parapet and
cheered, thinking they had beaten their
opponent. Not a bit A minute after
ward down went the gabiOns and cut
came the Russian gun again.
Several more shots were fired from
both sides, all very good ones. Jenny
got a nasty thump, but it did her ne
harm. At length, think after the sew
enth shot from our side, we saw the
Russian gun clean knocked over.
"Our fellows cheered vociferously,
and the Russians mounted the parapet

then opened again. Thus ended the
