Roman Epicures.

A certain Roman epicure once
gave little dinner to nine friends.
1t cost $4,000. Oysters brought
by footmen from Britain we're con-
sumed in quantities. The Roman
gastronomy favored such delicacies
as peacock, guinea hen, nightingale,
thrushes, perhaps whole boar stuff
fed with the flesh of other animals.
But fish was the especial dainty.
Vitellius, we are told, had his fish
weighed alive before him at the Ia
BILE. Bets were made on the dura-
ton of its expiring gasps. His broth
er once served him a dinner at
which 1000 of the choicest fish were
used. He often dined out, and none
of the meals ever cost his host less
than $4,000. Apicius, after vast
ing nearly 100000 in feastng
discovered to his dismay that he
had but little over 100000 left
This being too little for a gentle
man to exist on, he calmly killed
himself.

A CUT OR TORN ARTERY.
How to Stop Dangerous Bleeding In
Gases of Accident.


1t often happens in cases of ac-
cident that the danger to life IS
greatly increased by, if not solely
dependent upon, the loss of blood,
the injury itself being compare
lively trivial affair. Whether light
or serious, the wound can wait, IN
deed in most cases must wait, for
the arrival of the physician, but the
bleeding waits for nothing. 1t
must be arrested speedily, and if 1t
is not stopped by some one on the
spot or if it does not cease spon-
taneously the coming of the physl-
clan may be useless, for the wounds
of dead man need no binding.
In classes of instruction in first
aid to the wounded this point is al
ways insisted upon, and rightly, but
unfortunately how bleeding from a
cut or torn artery can be quickly
and certainly arrested is not always
clearly enough explained. The pu-
pills study diagrams depicting the
course and direction of the large
arteries, and round black or red
disks are placed at the points where
pressure can be effectively applied
| to shut off the flow Of blood from
the parts lower down on the limb.
The application of tourniquet Is
taught, and sometimes even 1.-THE
mode of tying an artery (Which IS
