NOsebleed,
Nouth's Companion.l

tioutu Noiipduioh.J
Bleeding from the nose may be caused
by an injury, such as violent blow. or
sneezing too hard, or snuffing irritating
substances up the nostrils, or it may occur
as n symptom of constitutional disease. In
the latter case it may be the result of any
one of several causes. In advanced adult
life, for instance, it sometimes means that
the person is suffering from Bright's dis
ease or from heart trouble, causing the
vessels that feed the brain to become over
distended with blood.
Some people suffer from nosebleed when
they climb mountains, or when they first
go to live at a much greater altitude than
that to which they have been accustomed.
In these cases, and in all cases caused by
overdistention and pressure, the attack Of
nosebleed is a direct effort on the part Of
nature to relieve the system, and is there
fore blessing in disguise.
In young people who are making blood
very fast-faster than the system requires
there often occur violent attacks which
must be- of course, suitably treated, but
need cause no great alarm unless they
prove very obstinate to simple remedies.
This form Of nosebleed will disappear as
the patient approaches adult life, and the
whole system finds its balance.
Certain diseases, such as scarlet fever,
typhoid fever, blood-pOisoning and erysip-
elias, are often accompanied by attacks of
nosebleed. These attacks arc then only
one of the many symptoms Of serious
disorder. and as such would naturally he
dealt with by the physician in attend
ance. - . .
In the ordinary cases of bleeding from
the nose in children or young adults, very
simple household remedies are generally all
that will be needed. 1t is only when these
attacks become too frequent, or when
enough blood is lost to make the sufferer
white and weak, that more energetic meas
ures will be needful. There is an old
wives theory that the dropping Of large
cold door-key down the back will stop
nosebleed. This theory has. as usual, its
little germ Of truth. If door-key is the
biggest and coolest thing at hand, it would
be well to use it in this way. AS the
virtue. however. does not lie in the key,
but in its coldness, cold water congresses
applied to the back of the neck and the
forehead would do the work quicker and
more scientifically. If this has no effect
the sufferer should lie down with the
nostrils compressed and the arms raised
a above the head. Sometimes plugging the
nostrils with absorbent cotton soaked in
some astringent, such as alum or tannic
acid, will be found necessary.

A SUPERB MONUMENT.
Erected to the Memory of the Soldiers of St.
Joseph County, Ind.

June % was Il great day at South Bend.
Ind, for there was dedicated then Sill
perb monument to the memory of the
young men of st. Joseph County who

12Sth. 13Sth and 155th Indiana Infantry,

Dist Indiana Battery. OF these 231 died
or were killed during the war.
The project of erecting monument orig
mated with Norman Eddy Post, SO, of
South Bend, at Il meeting held Oct. 20,
1899, and the work has been pushed for
ward earnestly ever since. Capt Edwin
Nicar has been one of the leading spirits
in the matter, and its success is largely
due to him. The monument is one of the
very finest in the country. 1t is 12 feet
high, with base 20 by 20, and the main
section is n column of solid granite %
feet high and weighing 26 tons. The crown
ing figure of the monument represents n
color bearer pointing south to the field of
action and looking north as though for
comrades to follow him in a charge The
figure is of bronze, nine feet high. There
are four fine figures, representing the diff
ferent arms of the service, and Il big
following inscription:
"1SG1-'65.
"In grateful recognition of the patriot
ism, services and sacrifices of our soldiers
in the war for the Union we, the people
of st. Joseph County have erected this
monument.
June %, 1903, when the years of earth
are over and the cares of earth are DONE
''When the reign of time is ended and
eternity begun. When the thunders of
Omniscience in our wakened senses roll
and the sky above shall wither and be
gathered like a scroll.
"When among the city mountains and
across the mighty sea, the sublime celestial
bugler shall ring out the reveille. Then
shall march with brightest laurels and with
proud victories tread, to the station up in
heaven, our Grand Army of the Dead.

ENORMOUS cousumpt,on of Ties

The immense quantity of timber used
every year for ties is causing serious con-
cern as to where the ties Of the future are
to come from. There are about 16 ties to
every 30 feet Of rail, and probably about
35.0O0,OO0 ties actually used on the 300
600 miles of railroad in the United States.
AS the average life of tie is five years
this involves consumption Of 100000
yearly.
The average size of a tic is about G
inches deep, 8 inches broad and 9 feet
long, making about sc linear feet of tim
ber; hence, the annual renewal through
out the United States calls for over 25O,-
100000 feet of timber. Allowing one
third for waste, there must be some $780,
0OO,0OO linear feet of timber cut every
year for ties.

economically, and justly, and give relief
to SO many who are worthy, and in need
of assistance now, if ever; although it viii

pers. More than 200 veterans were pres
ent. Comrades L. T. Lemunyon was

Boston & Maine and the Florida East
Coast Railroads to determine the value Of
Florida Railroad it was found. after n
months experimenting with locomotive
hauling its regular load, that 1928 gallons
Of oil did the work of one ton of coal
Another test showed 1918 gallons of oil
to be equivalent to ton of coal. In the
Boston & Maine experiments the ratio
was 140.26 gallons of oil to one ton of
coal. 1t was found that the engine could
be urged to a greater capacity with oil
than with coal, and this with smokeless

DROWNED IN THECATAWBA,
Special to The State.

Rock Hill, Aug. 12-News has
reached here of the drowning Of
white man by the name of Nor
man in Oatawba river, near Fort
Mill. Norman was fleeing of the
law, and is supposed was drown
ed while attempting to swln the
river.
Complaint was made of the
conduct Of Norman on Sunday
night when he went to the house
of an old couple and made him
self v, 2 disagreeable. 1t does
not appear that he abused them
physically, but in words and
manner threatened them. He
was charged with drunkenness and
dlsorderly conduct. The police
went to the Fort Mill Manutact-
uring company's mill Monday
morning and arrested him.
When they came by Norman's
hoae he asked to be allowed to
go in to get his coat. PermIsson
were given, bEt Norman did not
come back to the officers.
Soon after this the chiefs dog
was put on the trail, which he
followed for about hour. Nothing
more was known Of Norman un-
Hl yesterday afternoon, it being
sspposed that be had made his
escape.
Yesterday Mr.. w. 81. Jones
and others found the body of a
man floating down the river and
whom it was recovered it was
found to to be that of Norman.
The police at Fort Mill do not
seem to know much about the
character Of the man, but over
the phone this morning gave the
facts as above stated.
