PROPER TREATMENT OF BURNS.
The Use of Flour or Oil Is Strongly
 Depreeated.

In case of burns death may be dUe first to asphyXia; secondly. to shock and. thirdly. to septicaemla-
 The medical man seldom gets to the case in time to treat the first condition. the second is essentially a general condition. while the whole success in preventing the third de- pends upon the immediate local treatment IL Is therefore the last condition which must be considered here Among the public it is a gen erally accepted idea that the thing tO do ia the case of burn is to dust four over 1t or to cover it with oil. and ia deed. even in some oompara- lively late text books on surgery mixture known as "earron oIT' is ad- voeatad-

The optimistic view of Chairman Knapp of the interstate commerce commission that an era of peace be-
 tween the corporations and the peo- pie is dawning is all nonsense. MT Knapp says the railroads are accept ing the situation and that, "any fur ther legislation will have the approv- al of railroad men as we'll as the pub lic." If Chairman Knapp really be- lieves what he says, he evidently does not understand the railroad tac- tics, which at present are to lie low and take what small knocks are coming to them from the commission by virtue of the very imperfect law passed by the last congress. The con- ing congress is not expected to add any drastic legislation, for President Roosevelt has decided to rest upon his laurels, except to try to take from the states their present power to con- trol common carriers within their borders and so make the general gov- ernment supreme, and in that the railroads agree with him, but the ma jority of the people never should ac- quiesce for they would lose the only power they possess of real railroad control.

The republican scramble to suc- ceed to the presidency has produced suffering from over exertion and the candidates are now watching each other from the safe vantage of luxur- ious summer retreats. As these can didates are the best the republican party can produce, it must be rather disheartening to their packers to find how little the public think of them. The Knox boom is so dependent upon the Penrose machine that its fate in other hands would insure it's rejec- tion. The Fairbanks boom would not live a day without the careful management of the machinery that has been with so much care erected to control 1t. The Cannon boom is dependent upon congress and repub- lican members of the house of repre- sentatives are dependent upon the speaker for good positions on eom- mites that give them power and if they are so inclined ample graft for themselves or their favored constitu- ents. Somehow the wheels of the Taft chariot drag heavily in spite of the Roosevelt boosting. and there is evidence that it will result in being merely a center around which the administration forces can gather. For instance the republicans of Kentucky have just declared in favor of a man like Roosevelt" which shows the de- sire to keep on the administration band wagon and in close communiea- tiOn with the political pie dispenser. That is all there is to the republican party in the southern states

One of the astonishing features of our present industrial system is the growth and persistency of vagrancy. Recent statistics show that during the years 1901-1905, there were 23,- 964 trespassers killed by the rail- roads of this country, and that 25,- 236 more were injured; nearly all of them being tramps. The tramp question has become a national prob lem. But how shall it be dealt with? Tramps and trusts have been bred in such numbers of late years that they seem to have the same origin and very much the same nature. They reap what they have not sown, and flourish in the same jungle created by unjust legislation. To reform the tariff would be in large measure to reform the trusts and the tramps.

Among the varied uses of peat that for the production of gas is perhaps the least known. It has been used for this purpose, however, for the last thirty years in the steel works of No- tala, in Sweden. From thirteen thousand to sixteen thousand cubic yards of peat are thus used yearly. It costs rather more than coal gas, but has the advantage of containing scarcely any sulphur or phosphorous. In several places in Europe peat gas is used for heating and in glass melt ing furnaces.

The scholar, the inventor. the financier, the literary creator should be asleep every night at ten o'clock, to wake again at, say two. in the morning. Three hours work, from two to five, in the absolute tranquility of the silent hours, should mean the revealing of new powers, new possibilities, a wealth of ideas un- dreamed of under the prevailing sys- tenn. From eight to eight or S:30 sleep again. Take up again the days work; the brain will still be saturated with the mental fruits of the night vigil: there will be no effort in putting into practice or carrying further what was planned or begun those few hours be- fore. The habit may be hard to &C., Quire. but mechanical means of waking at first will induce the predisposition."

One would naturally expect
to hear that John d. Rookie
Teller IL a cross, grasping old
miser, but his daughter last
week paid him a high tribute
by saying ''he is one of the
most genial, great hearted
men in this whole world" but
she said something still more
important. "He lives in the
clouds with his God rather
than with worldly things"
Now If this man, whose
wealth is nothing before God,
can live in the clouds with
his Maker and find peace and
consolation in doing so, what
can hinder any other man on
THIS earth from doing like
wise? Most person deliber-
ately take desperate chances
on the next world in grasping
for wealth and these persons
might as well look ahead and
see what they will gain If they
succeed, or even worse IT they
don't. The only thing worth
having in this world ia the
knowledge that you're doing
right, which brings with il
the respect OF your fellow
man as well as respect for
yourself. 1t is only a step
farther TO get hold OF the
peace that comes with the
ASSURANCE OF being right with

Worlds Largest Ship

greatest interest is being
taken here in the wonders of
the new Lusitania, easily the
largest ship in the world, now
being built on the Clyde.
This newest and latest Gu.
harder will have a population
OF $3.50, of whom 800 will com.
pose the crew. She will have
accommodation for $50 first
class passengers, 500 second
class and 1900 third-class.

follows: Length, 7S5 feet,
tonnage, 32, 500; speed
25 knots; staterooms, 1OA feet

The Lusitania Is now receiv.
ing the finishing touches at
the hands OF Messrs. Holm,

Each passenger gets SO per

Everything has been designed
To look as much like the

little like a ship as human in
genuity can do it. The fire.
places will, except in bad
weather be open and cheerful

will take the passengers from

Bruises.

A bruise Is a wound, differ.
ing only from the injuries or.
dinarily called wounds in the
fact that the skin il not brok.
en-; but this is a very import
ant fact, for IT. diminishes the
probability Of infection and
consequent suppuration..
The skin, how.v ,r, especi-
ally when it's vitality has been
impaired, rs it is by the blow
that produc IS the bruise, is
not "A perfect protection, and
unless great care is taken,
the germs Of suppuration may
Hitter through and cause an
abscess.
A bruise Is the result either
OF a heavy compression be-
tween two hard objects, as
when the wheel Of a vehicle
passes over some part OF the
body, or Of a smart blow by
some hard blunt object. The
first indication of "a confusion
of bruise is pain. This is
speedily followed by swelling
and discoloration. The part
is first red, then blush or a
dirty black, and this shades
off into yellow and brown,
gradually tightening to the
natural color of the skin as
healing progresses.
The discoloration, a familiar
exa nple of which is the black
eye of evil repute, is caused
by the escape into the tissues
OF blood from the minute blood
vessels broken by the blow.
Sometimes a larger vessel
ruptured, and then a round
ed tumor, a blood.tumor 10
produced.
The best treatment of a
slight bruise is the applica-
ton of cold, hy means OF an
ice bag or of cloths wrung
~tofice-water,a and frequently
changed as they become
warm.
In the aged, or in persons
given to the use to liquors..
whose tissues have little
vitality, and in cases where
the confusion is of wide ex-
tent and very severe, the con-
tinuous application of cold
may be injurious. Then hot
cloths or a hot water bag
should be used instead. The
cloths, whether hot or cold,
may be advantageously wet
with hot or cold claret or
weak vinegar. As infection
of the wound may occur, even
when the skin IL unbroken,
the part should be washed
gently with hot water and
soap and then with alcohol as
soon as possible after the III.
