DEATH OF JUDGE CLAYTON.
Was One Of Kansas Pioneers, and
Leaves a Host Of Mourning Friends.

Judge joshua Clayton was born in
Bradford, England, February 18th,
1925. Died at Whitewater, Colorado,
August %, 1905.
Joshua Clayton was married to
Mary Wocdhead, in Bradford, in
lS45, and eleven years after, in 1856,
they removed to the United States,
with three children, settling in Wis.
cousin. There one of the children
died. From Wisconsin they moved to
Kansas City, Mo, in 1857, where
Thomas the youngest son now living,
was born.
AT the opening Of the War OF the
Rebellion Judge Clayton and his
oldest son, John, enlisted in the
Union army, from Johnson county,
Kansas. to which place they had re-
moved. The son was killed in Arkan-
SaSbeing member of the I'd Kansas
Cavalry. Judge Clayton was promot-
ed % acting quartermaster, with the
rank Of First Lieutenant, and was
stationed at Fort Smith, Arkansas.
The family removed to Paola, where
they resided after the close Of the
war. He served as probate Judge
of Miami county for two terms.
In 1875 he removed with his
family to Great Bend, Kansas, where
Mrs. Clayton died, Jan. I, 1899.
Judge Clayton and his Oldest son,
James, practiced law for a number of
years, the judge having to eventually
give up practice on account of failing
health. He has interested himself
duriugthe last few years in the mining
industry and was out looking after
the working OF his mines at the time
of hiSdeath. His grandson, Herbert
V. Clayton, Of Topeka, was with him
at the time of his death, and tele.
graphed the news here, where his
father, James, is visiting.
Judge Clayton was a life long
member of the Methodist Episcopal
church, and was always active and
earnestin church work. He had been
in rather feeble health for the past
tour or hve years, and his death was
not therefore wholly unexpected,
although a sad blow to his loved
ones.
The only relatives surviving him in
this country are James Clayton, now
of Topeka, and Thomas Clayton, a
member Of the city council of Great
Bend, and their families, and Frank
Aspinall Of Topeka, nephew.
The remains will be brought to
Great Bend for interment. Announce
ment of the time Of funeral services
will be made later.

Beds and Bedding.

There are still bedrooms wherein
can be found reminders of a bygone
age in the form of unwieldy bedsteads
with their monster bedposts and side
parts almost as large as bridge tim
Der, and which afford convenient
camping grounds for vermin. Such
bedsteads usually have for their i'm
mediate companions some of the old
fashioned bed springs, which appear
very crude when compared with the
elegant and simple springs now found
in all up-to-date homes.
The simple iron b%edstead, with it's
woven wire springs, provided with
some of the later c~ontrivances to pre-
vent sagging in the center, represents
the highest form of evolution in the
line of beds. 1t is comfortable, read
lily moved about, easily slowed away,
and, best of all, affords no lodging
places for either dust or vermin. 1t
can be readily cleansed if for any
cause it has been exposed OF danger
GUS infective disease, and for its very
simplicity and neatness is a suitable
ornament for any bedroom.
The passing away of "the good old
days" has deprived us of much that
was substantial and real, which has
been replaced by the shallow and ar
%tificial, but it is certainly a matter for
congratulation that modern civiliza
ton has em~apcipated us from the pes.
tilential feather bed that used to be
passed down from generation to gen
Grafton as a cherished heirloom. The
old-fashioned quilts which were re.
covered again and again at quilting
bees" gradually became liable to the
same objection as the time-honored
feather bed.
It should always be remembered
that bed clothes are not warm in pro
portion to their weight. but just to the
extent that they have the ability to re.
tain heat, and that this depends more
upon the looseness of their texture
than upon the amount of cotton that
can be matted together and covered
again and again with new quilting.
All bedclothes, without regard to
the material from which they are con.
structed, should every week spend a
few hours becoming acquainted with
sunlight, and thereby have the addi'
tional advantage Of thoroughgoing
outdoor ventilation.

PRACTICAL HYGIENE
The Proper Care of the Body
In Summer Emergencies.

Se'"h'Si 6HHCi SSfi0'So'
One of the most serious and fire.,
quent OF summer emergencies is sun
stroke. 1t might be termed heat
stroke" since lit may occur in the
night, or in any place where the heat
is excessive. A "muggy" day with a
comparatively low temperature is
more injurious than a dry, hot atmos-
phere.
Anything that causes a lowered vi.
tality predisposes to sunstroke. Hence
persons addicted to the use of alcohol
are very frequent victims. The inges-
ton of large quantities of iced drinks
predisposes to sunstroke. COnstipa'
ton of the bowels is also a predispos-
ing factor. A person in perfect health
can endure very high temperature
with little danger. 1t is only when the
living machinery is doing imperfect
work that sunstroke is possible.
A sunstroke is usually preceded sew
eral days before by feelings of i'll
~health-loss of appetite, indigestion,
constipation, scanty perspiration and
indisposition to active exercise. The
stopping of persiration is an ominous
sign.
When a person falls with sunstroke.
he may complain of pain In the head
or v the heart. The skin is hot and
dry, temperature very high-106 to 108
degrees, with disturbances of respira-
ton and pulse, nause and vomiting,
insensibility and stupor, weakness, or
even complete paralysis.
The patient should be removed at
once to a cool, shady place, his cloth
ing loosened, ice applied to the head
and spine, and cold water douches
given; a cold bath a be used, also
cold anemas. A very simple and eff.
fective treatment is the shower pack,
which is given as follows: An ordi-
nary mattress is covered with oilcloth,
upon which the patient is placed,
wrapped in a sheet. and sprinkled
with cold water as often as the sheet
dries by evaporation. Ice may be ap-
piled to the head at the same time.
To avoid sunstroke, see that the gen.
eral health is good. Discard alcohol
les and narcotics, use iced drinks
sparingly, especially when warm, keep
the bowels active, and use an abund-
ance of fresh fruit. A cold sponge
bath in the morning, adding a little
salt to the water, followed by a vigor-
Gus rubbing, is a simple and valuable
stimulus to the healthy action of the
skin.
The treatment for sunstroke is cold
applications, and practically nothing
but cold.
