OLIVE OIL
Is the Best Remedy for Cuts and
Bruises of Any Kind.


Bruises of Any Kind.
From the New York Herald.
Every one knows how frequent
bruises are in children and adults. Chill
dren frequently get them by falling,
and adults in the course of their days
work. These bruises, which are form
ed by the filtration of blood into the
network of the tissues. often assume
the appearance of blackish ecchymo-.
sis, which is treated with Goulard
water and resting the confused part,
combined with a light pressure of
strips of wadding or with stronger
pressure by placing a coin over the
spot. The swelling quickly turns to
violet. then to blue-green and yellow.
and loses its color by degrees, until
the blood in the tissue is absorbed.
To all these methods NJ. Camescasse
of Arnoult has added another, which
is said to be greatly preferable to any.
1t consists in simply covering the
bruise with olive oil. By this means
the pain is quieted, the swelling sub
sides. and the subsequent ecchy mosis
is avoided. 1t renders any sort of mas
sage entirely superfiuous; an anoint-
ing with the highest and softest wom-
ans hand Is all that is necessary. The
only inconvenience of this method oc-
ours when the bruise is broken, and
even in such case 1t is efficacious pro-
vided that il is preceded or followed
by an antiseptic washing 1t is best
that the amounting should take place
as soon as possible after the brulse.
but even after lapse of several hours
there is no reason to despair of effect
ing a complete cure.
In what way does the OIL act2 NJ.
Camescasse himself declares that he
has not the slightest idea. He confines
himself 10 the calling 20 mind that. IN

lin working day and spend half an
hour making a call in each.
This of itself would almost make
the title ''The City of the Strangers"
appropriate to the town. but there are
other reasons a-plenty why it fits.
For instance, nearly two-thirds the
population of a million or more living
north of Fifty-seventh street older
than rs were born outside, and
nearly all that territory has been
transformed within the memory of
a man of 40 from empty lots and farms
to the most closely built over similar
area in America. In 1876 the writer
climbed to the top of the ledge of rocks
now known as Morningside flights at
One Hundred and Fifteenth street and
looked out over a landscape Astounding
in trees-some in groups large enough
to be termed groves-dotted only here
and there with houses and gridironed
with country roads. To-day the view
is that of an apparently illimitable sea
of roofs, the trees are conspicuous by
their absence, save in the parks, and
there is a roar of unending traffic even
at midnight, which is accentuated ev-
cry minute or two by the rattle and
grind of passing elevated and surface
electric cars.

Then it came out that they had left
home within six months of one anoth-

worked his way up in the employ of
a big corporation, till each had been
promoted to responsible place in the
home office. Curiously enough, too,
though they were in different lines of
business their "home Offices were on
the same street, they lived in the
same apartment house and they had
moved in not more than a week
apart.
A more curious instance is told of by
a man whose family became well ac-
quainted with the family living on the
third floor Just across the hall of the
same apartment house. For nearly two
years the men of each little family

and so they were, because each rec
ognized in the other a schoolmate,
who in boyhood days had lived on a
neighboring farm in the northern part
of New York state.
Both these men, though not natives
of New York, had become thoroughly
imbued with the et-your-neighbor-
alone" spirit of the place.
This cuYiOnS mental attitude is far
more thoroughly developed in New
York than anywhere else in America.
Under it's influence families may live
on the same floor of an apartment
house for years without learning each
others names-not because they are
"stuck-up'' or unsociable, but because

Let the same people move into the
suburbs and live in detached house,
with a lawn in front of it where they
can see their neighbors going in and
out. and they often develop a spirit of
the greatest neighborliness. There Is
no doubt that apartment life tends to
foster a spirit of reserve, of utter I'M
sociableness, more rapidly and COM
pletely than anything else.
You see, the very fact that your
neighbor lives under the same roof,
and perhaps on the same floor with
yourself; that he could call upon you
and you could call upon him without
stepping out Of doors. tends to make
YOU a little shy of him. For should you

Ardo went out in 40 and came back
in 10. making a total of IS. one more

which was made by his brother and
j. ID. Cady several days ago. Mr.. Cady

The links are in splendid condition.

has been almost ideal for gOlfing and

The Mitchell boys teed off at 2:30
and the home green will be made
about J o'clock. The other contest
ants teed off about the same time.
Leon is generally considered the ia
vorite for the championship cup. His
records so far this year have been
better than those of his brother and
he is credited with being the steadiest
player. Their play, however. has been
so close that the picking of favor
lite between the two is idle work and
even money reigns in the betting.

STRANGE RIVER CRAFT
GOES ON LONG JOURNEY

y boat has recently been completed
ab Chicago for use on Il Brazilian
river, and has been taken by its own
er on trip of several thousands of
miles via the drainage canal, the Hi
nois and Mississippi rivers. Gulf of
Mexico, Caribbean sea and Atlantic
ocean to its destination. The craft
and the fact of its being built at this
point so remote from the place where
il will be used furnishes the best pos
sible evidence of the lack of develop
ment in manufacturing lines in the
south. The boat. which has been
christened the Sac Salvador, tied upat
st. Louis on the way down and is de-
scribed by the Globe-DemOcrat:
The Sac Salvador, the queerest
craft that has anchored at st. Louis
in years, was tied up yesterday at the
harbor office, foot of Market street.
The boat is owned by Robert Wall, Il
Brazilian trader, who is taking her
to the state of Maranham, Brazil,
| through which the Itapicura river
flows, and which she will navigate.
n crowd of rivermen and wharf
Ioungers collected yesterday to view
the boat. The most interesting fact
connected with the Sac Salvador is
that she is on one of the longest voy-
ages ever launched upon by vessel
of her kind. The Sac Salvador is rad
icaIly different from anything yet
seen around st. Louis. One riverman
remarked yesterday that she resem-
bled, more than anything else he
knew of, the oldestyle shingle boats
which piled the river % years ago.
''The boat is fat-bottomed, and has
length of 90 feet, with a beam of
1872 feet. Her light draught is 80
inches aft, by > feet forward, and
loaded to her full capacity, she draws
only feet of water. The hull is en-
tirely of steel plates. and all her other
stays and permanent parts are of
steel.
mir. Wall is one of the most eX-
tensive traders in the state of Maran-
ham. He owns several boats which
ply the Itapicura river distance of
| 27O miles from its outlet into the At
lantic ocean. On his trips he collects
principally hides, cotton, goat skins
and rubber. all of which he exports to
agents in either New York or some
European city"
