CONCERNING NosEBLEED.
Facts That Are Useful to Know
About Common Addiction.

NoSebleed is so common in childhood
that little account is ordinarily made of
sit. Where it occurs repeatedly without
apparent prOvocation, however, effort
should be made not only to check the i'm
mediate attack, but to ascertain the cause
of the trouble. 1t is well known that
heart disease, congestion of the liver and
other conditions affected by or affecting
the circulation of the blood predispose to
nosebleed. and considerable anxiety is
frequently felt lest the nosebleed of child
hood may be the result of serious con-
stitutional causes. Most commonly the
cause is local.
The best means of checking the imme-
date attack is pressure with the finger
on the upper lip just beneath the nostrils.
A small pad of absorbent cotton or a
piece of handkerchief may be placed in
side the lip and tightly pressed against
the gum from without, thus COMPRISING
the two small arteries of the upper lip
that supply the nose. These can ordina-
rily be felt pulsating in this locality.
If the bleeding is profuse or prolonged,
the child should be placed in a restful
position, but with the head elevated,
while ice may be held to the forehead or
the back of the neck. To decrease still
further the blood pressure within the
vessels of the nose a mustard foOtbath is
of service.
In the meantime blowing the nose must
be avoided Plugging the nostrilS both in
front and back is a last resort to keep the
sufferer from actual peril.
The predisposing causes of nosebleed
are, rs has been said, commonly local.
Careful examination of the nose by the
physician is therefore always necessary
in recurrent attacks. Diseased areas in
the nose are usually found. in which the
vessels are spongy and unnaturally tur-
gid.
The depression of the child's health
caused by repeated attacks of nosebleed
not infrequently requires attention. If
the trouble is due to systematic weak
ness, attention is to be especially directed
to an improvement of the general condi-
ton, while if the lungs are themselves
weak repeated attacks of nosebeed are
sometimes indications of the need of a
change of climate or of proper physical
exercise at home.
The formation of scabs or crusts. often
attended in childhood with picking of the
nose, must not be overlooked as a cause
Of nosebleed. Watchfuness may be re-
quired to prevent the formation of an
unfortunate habit, but the affected spots
must also be treated with ointment or
other simple means of healing.-Medcal
Journal.

A RUN ON A BANK.
The Easy Trick by Which the PresI-
dent stopped 1t.

"A run on bank is funny thing"
said the old banker, who was in a rem
iniscent mood. st will start without the
slightest cause, and you never know
when to expect it. 1t may be only ru-
NOR it may be in the air, and the deed is
done. Many good bank has gone to the
wall simply because there was no way to
know that a run was in prospect, and
there are times when the soundest bank
in the world could not stand an unex-
pected run.
"a number of years ago, when | was
a young man, | was cashier of bank in
the interior of the state The bank was
in good condition and perfectly sound.
and we did not dream that our credit
would be questioned. But one day a
run was started without warning, and in
side of two hours there was a bowling
mob around the bank. and we realized
that we had a serious situation to face.
at was simply impossible for us to
meet all the demands, but | paid out the
funds that we had on hand. knowing full

Calmly and deliberately he reached

bill, rolled it lengthwise, stepped to the
stove and lit 1t; then, without a culver
of an eyelid, he produced a cigar, bit off
the end and proceeded to light it from the
burning bill.
THAT move saved the bank The man
to whom at that moment | was handing
his balance gasped and then. showing the
money back, said he would leave it. 1t
was the turn of the tide. and the run

The Moid the Mai

The story of how the famous little
craft the Maid of the Mist shot the whirl-
pool rapids at Niagara falls is an inter-
esting one. The boat, as has been the
custom of her successors, was used to
carry adventurous visitors up the Naga-
"a river as near to the falls as was posi-
BILE. On June Is, 1867, her skipper, hav-
ing become financially involved, received
word that the sheriff intended to seize
his boat He concluded to foil the min
ions of the law by shooting the rapids
and prevailed upon two other reckless
spirits to accompany him.
Those that witnessed the feat were
thrilled at the sight. As the Maid pass
ed under the bridge she gave a long leap
downward and was almost buried from
view in the foaming waters. She arose.
however, with no great damage and flew
into the whirlpool mile below, which
was comparatively easy of navigation.
She finally sailed down into the smooth
water below Lewiston and escaped from
the sheriff. The chances for successfully
competing against the fury of the rap
ids are said to be 80 to 1, and the feat is
recorded as one of marvellous and unprec-
edented daring.

THE COWBOYS PROOF.
His Marksmanship Showed That He
Had Not Shot TO Kill.

Jack Vance, a cowboy from the ranch
of the Butte Greek Cattle company, was
on trial at Alliance, Neb., on a charge Of
shooting at brakeman on the Burling
ton railroad with intent to kill him. He
had received his pay a few days before
and was engaged at the time of the
shooting in the picturesque pastime of
painting the county red.
Vance vehemently denied any intent to
perforate the brakeman. He told the
court that. while it was true that he did
take out his revolver and shoot after the
brakeman had pushed him off the train,
he was merely giving prearranged sig
nal. He and a friend had been down the
road few miles and wanted to ride back
to the nearest station to the ranch. Real
fling that if they were found by any of
the train crew they would be put off, they
had arranged that il one was put off the
train he should notify his partner by fir
ing his revolver once.
The trainman, with visions Of what he
firmly believed was a narrow escape from
death. shook his head. and the Judge
looked unbelieving. Vance's cowboy
friend corroborated the story. but. seeing
that his tale failed to receive credence.
the defendant asked the court to please
step outside. The judge asked what for.
"Ill prove my innocence your honor"
Vance said.
The court was curious and went out
side So did the sheriff, lawyers and
spectators Vance pulled out his revolver
and, holding postage stamp between the
fingers of his left hand, clipped off each
corner in succession. Next he asked a
