ABOUT HEMoRRHAGE.
Various Remedies Which May ne
Employed In Gases That
Sccm srrIoua.

Since the "good old days" when bleed
ing was the pauacea for all diseases,
when Il was thought that the summer
could not be survived without copious
bleeding from The arm in the spring,
and when bleeding was employed even
to stop bleeding, we have swung over to
the other extreme.
A pretty copious nosebleed or a rather
obstinate tricxling from cut finger
often causes great alarm, when II ought
TO be welcomed as a salutary depletion.
Stall there are times when hemorrhagc
is excessive, and life itself depends upon
its prompt arrest.
In all classes Of ''hrst-aid" instruction
rules are given ~, arresting bleeding
from an open wound by compression Of
the main artery Of the limb. This Is
very well, and IL the pupil can keep his
head sufficiently 10 remember the an
atomy OF the part and where and how
to make the needed pressure the in
struction will not have been In vain.
Unfortunately nature has omitted to
mark on the skin the course Of the ar
teries beneath, an omission which 1t has
been proposed TO supply nrtihcially in
the case Of soldiers going TO battle.
For those Of us Who lack such a map
IL is useful to remember that by strong
ly binding the joint above the bleed
ing part, II the wound is on one Of the
limbs, we Gun so reduce the flow Of
blood In the artery that the hemorrhage
will cease spontaneously. The same re-
suit may sometimes be reached by rails
ing the wounded member, and so OPP
posing the force Of gravity to the blood
current.
When the hemorrhagc Is from an in
ternal organ, as the lungs or stomach,
benefit may sometimes be obtained by
tying a bandage firmly round one or
more Of the extremities SO as TO prevent
the return Of blood through the veins.
In that way the volume Of blood circu-
lating IN the body is reduced, and that
which remains tends TO eliot at the part
where the bleeding Is going on.
Dry heat, in the form Of hot-water
bag or q hot brick, applied to the bleed
i Ing part will be found efficient In many
eases; on the other hand, ice-coh ap-
plications are often equally serylceable,
While sometimes alternate hot and cold
applications will stop bleeding where
neither will succeed alone.
Among the so-called styPtics which
7 are useful to stop troublesome bleeding
from a small cut may be mentioned vim
egar, lemon juice and other weak acids;
creosote or carbolic acid; alum, taunln
sulphato Of copper and sulphnte OF Iron
This last Is a powerful arrester OF bleed
D Ing, but should be avoided, il posi-

Now that low shoes are the order Of
the day, the summer girl wages her old
battle of trying TO keep them tied. The
patent fasteners that she used TO clamp
on her shoes played havoc with her lace
trimmed skirts and the ruiIies inside
her gown and never did their duty at
that. They were always coming of, as
the many odd clasps in her possession
testify. If the bow is hid properly there
Is no need Of clasps. Tie once. and
proccedas IL to make an ordinary double
bow knot. just before the loops are
pulled tight wrap the left-hand loop
under the knot and then pull the loops.
This is an improvement on the old way
Of tying the loops, which, il done ef-
fecti,ely, often caused the nails TO be-
come broken in the effort to undo the
work. This bow can be undone by pull
ing TIE string. just as if 1t were tied or
dinarily.-N. \. journal.

Mind Roth WAYS.

To see evil only in others and none in
ourselves is to be blind both ways; for
what we see in others is often but re-
Election OF the evil that is in ourselves,
and the good we fancy we see in our
selves may be a reflection of the good
that is in others. In the one case we
may deform goodness by painting II
black and in the other we may adorn
badness by painting it white. Mere
paint never decides the quality Of the
thing painted. but only hides the real
quality from view.-Detroit Free Press.

New York. July 2.-Ben Jordan OF
England. after lighting rs hard rounds
with George Dixon, the colored cham
pion. was awarded the honors by Ref
cree White last night ut the arena Of the
Lenox Athletic club. Both boys put
up a splendid fight, and there was little
to choose between them. III anything,
Dixon seemed to have the better Of the
bout, and was decidedly stronger and
more effective than when he met Santry
OF Chicago few weeks ago In the Same
ring. Jordan had shade the better
Of his opponent in regard to height
and reach. and 1t was announced that
he weighed 122 pounds. while Dixon
turned the scales at 117h pounds.
Dixon. as usual. did the leading, but.
unlike many of those who had previously
met the little colored fighter, Jordan
went at him and mixed II up at all times.
Several times Jordan used his elbow at
close quarters, but the referee contcntsd
himself with cautioning the Britisher.
Once or twice Jordan hit Dixon rather
low on the body. but George made no
protest. Many OF those who watched
the work OF both thought draw would
have been a very satisfactory decision.

LINE TO TAUNTON.
First Car Run From This City Las
Evening.
Route Beautiful One and Will Be Very
Popular.

The trolley line between Providence
ard Taunton il completed, and the first
oar wss run over the track betweeu Gar
penter's Corners, the extension OF the
Taunton avenue lius in East Providence,
and the stats line, late yesterday aftsr-
noon, making the connection with the
new Providence and Taunton railroad, .
clear run of 16 "a m lies with hardly q
curve worth mentioning. This Is said
to be the longest trolley line In New
England.
The route 10 o very beautiful one. and
there Is no doubt that the lins will be-
come very popular one, particularly In
the warm months Cars will bs run at
onoa from Market square TO CONNECT with
the cars OF the Taulton line at the Mas
sachusetts boundary. Until the new
cars CT the Taunton ltue arrive and are
ready for use it Will be necessary to
change cars st the boundary. A shipment
OF the large cars to bo used on the new
line has arrived, but 10 not available for
immediate use, owing to some difficulty
with the motors. The road has bssn rs
Ing borrowed cars from the Brockton
road sinoe IL opened.
The open cars Of the new line are 81
feet long, while the box oars for winter
use are 40 feet in length, about five feet
more than the cars on the Broad street
line. As the curves over which 1t Will
be necessary TO run toe cars In this city
are not situated where the disad vantage
to traffic will be noticeable, 1t is thought
that there will be little or no objocti on
TO the new oars here.
