Ice Down the Neck for Nose.R,eed.

DIR. H~irshberg, In the American Mag
azine for October, writes entertainingly
of popular medical %fallacies.
Faulty logic is at the bottom of most
Of the medical %fallacies of the day" he
says. cause and effect are confused
or imagined and hasty generalization
does the rest. A case in point is af-
forded by certain homely remedies for
nose-bleed. N~inety-nine times in every
hundred nose-bleed will stop of itself
within a few minutes. But the sufferer.
unaware of natures skill as a healer.
is eager to give her aid. So he presses
his upper lip, and when, in a short
while. the flow of blood stops, he thinks
that 1t does so because he has pressed
he arteries. AS q matter of fact. the
arteries which reach the nose are deep
in the face n utterly beyond pressure
from without.
Another favorite method Of stopping
nose-bleed is to drop a cold KEY or a.
piece Of ice down the patients neck or
to put a O upon his head. In this
madness there is some method. though
its advocates. in all probability. could
offer no sensible account of the relation
between cause and effect. A sudden
fright or unexpected shock causes a
spasmodic contraction of the small
blood vessels. which forces the blood
into the larger vessels. and gives the
little ones time to repair injuries. A
piece Of ice, in the course Of Its I'M
canny slide down the vertebrate. pro-
duces a shock. A blow on the head
with a brick, or a boiler explosion NEXT
door, would produce an equal shock
and cure nose-bleed just as effectively.

Philadelphia Pa, special: Those Car
negie hero medals are just being received
by the brave men and women throughout
the country to whom they have been
awarded. There was a disagreement
among the members OF the commission
with regard to the design, and, although
In many instances the actual awards were
made long ago, the medals were not pre-
scented.
1t is a story that one can read again
and again-this record OF the modern
heroes. Every medal has a whole melo-
drama Of the finest type behind it. And
the list is a grattfyingly long one.
First in interest comes Captain Mark
Casio and his daring crew of the little
fishing schooner Alberta. When the steam
ship Cherokee went ashore off Atlantic
City, and was pounding herself to pieces
In a tremendous sea, Captain Casio called
for volunteers. and sailed straight
through the foaming breakers to the
STRANDED vessel.
Rescued Sixty Passengers.
While the Alberta reared and leaped as
though in mortal fear, the captain and his
men took off the sixty-odd passengers and
brought them safely ashore. 1t was one
OF the most spectacular rescues ever per-
formed on the Atlantic coast, and the
name and fame of Casio spread all over
the world.
He was at that time suffering from an
affliction of the eyes, and the exposure
Ind strain made it necessary for him to
lfterward. Just before the operation he
has the guest of honor at a Clover club

medal, setting forth the nature of the

William Jennings Bryan spoke for universal

when he began to talk Of the government OF the
United States, the form OF which lie called the
best that has ever been conceived

Il IS the best the world has ever known II Is the
best form OF government because It is the one
that can be whatever the people want 1t 20 be and
will be what they make it. It is easy to prove
that it is not perfect When the Democrats are in
power you can prove IT by any Republican. and
when the Republicans are in power proof is
necessary
