No Use For Local Papers.

Mexico Ledger says: One of these
people who never have any use for
local papers died in Audrain county
last year. His preacher, after saying
all the good things about him he
could, had an obituary published in
,he Ledger about him, which took al
least So worth of good advertising
space, and wishing to return good for
evil, we made no charge for the same.
The next day the son of the deceased
(who had no use for local papers
either) called and wanted II copies of
the Ledger containing the obituary.
He started out OF the Dtfi .e without
even saying thank you. On being in
formed that the dozen papers, under
the circumstances, ought TO be worth
fifty cents, he id: II don't believe I
want them" Such is life. In this
case. and in most all other cases where,
newspapers are treated in this manner
it is the fault of the newspaper man
agement. We should have charged
full rate for the beautiful and touch
ing obituary, then probably the value
of the local paper would have been
more highly appreciated.

aueer story of Unnse Hatfield, of the
Hatfcld-5IcCoy Rand of Outlaws.
Mrs. E. P. Chapman, of Hartford City,
". Va, vouches for the truthfulness OF
he following story concerning Hanse
Hatfield, one of the widely-linown out
avs of the Hatfeld-McCoy gang:
She was in Kanawha county some
lime ago instituting q Rebeliah lodge,
md, on her way home, stopped over
Sunday with the family of merchant
n Charleston. ITanse Hatfield was in
the city at the same time and was the
guest of the merchant, being there on
purchasing tour. On Sunday evening
Hatfield asked TO be shown the Meth
odist Episcopal church, and, on being
informed that there was no service in
hat church that evening, accepted the
invitation to go with the merchants
'amily to the Presbyterian church.
Upon arriving at the church Hatfield
took the merchant to one side and told
lin the Hatfelds had such a bad repu-
alton that he always carried a weapon.
He then proceeded to open hand grip
lie was carrying. To the chagrin of the
party he took therefrom an cid and
much used Bible, and, holding it up so
those near could see it, said:
This is the only weapon I ever
carry, and to get along well and live
close to the feet of Jesus Christ one
must carry it constantly and use it
often" The Bible was all there was In
the grip.

what to Do for This Very Annoying

Affection.
Piiny regarded nosebleed as one of
| the distinctive characteristics of the
human race, for he said that ''man is
the only creature from whom blsod
flows at the nostrils," and, properly
understood, he was right. OF cousst
blood will flow from any part of any
animal when the arteries or
veins of that part are opened,
but it is a fact that nosebleed,
occurring without any apparent cause,
is seldom, if ever, seen in animals. The
reason for this human peculiarity is
that the membrane lining the nostrils
in man is especially full of blood vessels,
the walls of which are weak and easily
ruptured by slight causes.
1t is usually very easy to recognize
nosebleed, but sometimes the blood
flows backward into the throat and
then is coughed up, or vomited, and
may be thought to come from hem
orrhage of the lungs or stomach, and
SO cause much needless alarm.
As a rule nosebleed is a thing of
slight importance, and stops of itself
after little while, but the blood may
escape in such quantity, or the bleeding
may continue so long, that line patient
is greatly weakened. When occurring
in children it has ordinarily no signifi-
cance-though this is not always to
be taken for granted-but in older per-
sons it may be symptom of some other
illness, such as the beginning of typhoid
fever, or trouble cf the liver or heart.
Nosebleed is one of the common mani
festations of that curious condition in
which there is a tendency to severe
hemorrhage after any slight injury or
even without any cause that can be
discovered. Children with this predis-
position-often called "bleeders'-suf-
fer from frequent and uncomfortable
attacks OF nosebleed, and sometimes
die in one of them in spite of all ef-
forts to control the hemorrhage.
Ordinarily there is little to be done,
for the bleeding usually stops of itself
The child should fee made to sit quiet
ly in chair with the head only slight
ly inclined forward, just enough t. let
the drops fall clear of the lips int. a
basin. All clothing should be looseaed
about the neck. Ice may be applied 10
the back of the neck, or ice water may
be dashed into the face or made to
trickle down the back.
1t is useful, also, to insert a little
piece of ice into the bleeding nostril-
sometimes the effecS is better if the
ice is put into the other nostril-and
retain it there for a moment or two;
or a still better plan is to snuff up
mixture of alcohol and water as hot
as it can be borne. The introduction of
cobwebs into the bleeding nostril often
induces coagulation, or the same pur-
pose may be served by a little wad of
loose sHorsted which has been picked
apart.
If simple measures fail, the physician
should be summoned before exhaustion
