A SUNSTROKE,
Life OF Mrs. Crostic Saved by Heroic
Treat mont.

The life OF Mrs. Emma Crostic. who
suffered a sunstroke yesterday. was in
greatest peril, and the fact that she is now
alive. is due to the herioc work of Dr. w.
A Giis. Of the ambulance.
The ambulance was summoned to the
First Police Station Sunday evening
about $50 o'clock TO attend Mrs. Crostic,
who had been brought there suffering from
a severe attack of sunstroke.
DIR. Gills realized at once what he had
to deal with, and Only heroic measures
would bring her around. He put the
woman IN the ambulance and hurried back
to the City Hospital, where he worked
upon her faithfully until u O'Clock. when
she began to show favorable symptoms.
Genuine cases Of sunstroke are rather
rare, and the mortality is very high,
which speaks well for DR.. Gills and his
noble work.
It VIII be remembered that Mr.. Crostic.
