THE FEDERAL PATRONAGE,

Congressman Ball Said to be Looked to by
the Administration to Recommend.
1t is said that Congressman L. Heia-
Ter Ball, Delaware's only representa-.
tive in the national legislature, is looked
to by the administration at Washing
ton to maze recommendations when IL
comes to Federal appointments in this
State. So far as is know D, all of the post-
masters appointed in Delaware since
Or. Ball'e term began have had his en-
doisement. 1t is understood that ali
OF the Republican postmasters whose
terms expire are to be reappoipted un-
less there is some good reason why they
should not be.
AS to the collector of the port the
situation IL complicated. The term of
DIR. William Ii. Cooper, Democrat, the
present incumbent, expired last Decen
Der. but as result Of the Republican
contention he still holds the Office and
there is no indication that lis successor
is to be named IN the near future. The
Addicks element desires Col. d. p.
Barnard of this city appointed, but the
Regulars want somebody else, and as
any appointment would offend one of
the factions the matter is allowed to
rest for the present. -El7-

Now that the mercury is rising
steadily toward the top of the Their.
mometer, too much care cannot be tx
eroised in the avoidance Of sunstroke.
The first thing for the feeble and
the aneimc to remember is that they
need tonic. just what that tonic is
may best be told by the family doctor,
Due regulation also under medical
advice-of the sxcretory organs is
another most important consideration.
Select your diet With regard to the
absence of heating properties,
Take daily sponge baths. Avoid ex-
cessive exertlon.
Sleep eight hours dialy. Use an
umbrella when walking in the sun.
Have your outer garments OF material
as light as possible and your under
wear Of gauze or linen mesh, which
will facilitate Precipitation.
Avoid stimulates.
The Red Cross Book gives these
uymptomB Of sunstroke; Headache,
STIFFNESS, faintness, ''seeing double, u
dausea, v eakness OF the knees, labored,
noisy breathing, groaning, sometimes
delirium and commissions, pulse full,
strong and rapid, face red aud skin in
tensely hot to the touch, the latter
always marked symptom.
Treatments; Take the patient to a
cool place, strip, sprinkle with iced
water lcomniou garden sprinkler is the
best thing to use). Also rub body
with ice simultaneously. II pulse
grows weak, give stimulants, Avoid
the uss Of whisky. When temperature
falls to l0l degrees, discontinue
sprinkling. Put patient to bed. Cover
lightly; use ice bag for head, If tenn
perature rises again IL may be necessary
to repeat the treatment. During con-
valescence keep the patient in a cool
room and give o light or stimulating
and easily digestsd diet. ~
DR.. Cyrus Edison approves of these
treatments and adds that IL the heart
action is bad and faintness comes on
aromatic spirits Of alnmonia-a half
teaspoonful In wine glass Of water

within two hours should be the extreme
amount given. Antipyretics given to

tions, and often mild stimulations to

to go without medical advice as to par
