OPPOSED TO UNIVERSAL EXPERT
ENCE.

It has remained for Chicago's wo-
man superintendent of schools to say
the sensible thing to the pupils about
handwriting. Write any way you
please" says Mrs. Young, 'but write
legibly and fast''
The foregoing is from the Chicago
Tribune, which warmly commends
the sentiment of Mrs. Young. But
THE APPEAL is not so sure that
Mrs. Young has said the sensible
thing, just because it is opposed to
universal experience. A music teach
er who should instruct his pupils:
Finger a.y way you please, would
soon be voted a frst-class idiot. And
again, THE APPEAL is not sure that
the two things 'any way you please
and "legibly" are compatible. So
We shall take the matter under ad-
visement.

DiSlOcQtiOn,s

Dlslocations are severe sprains that
nave stretched and torn the ligaments
and tissues around the joint to such
an extent as to allow the end of the
bones to become misplaced. Some dis
locations are known as congenital.
that is, they have existed since birth
and are due to some malformation of
some part of the joint.
The symptoms OF a dislocation are
O pain, which is usually dull, but
may be acute on attempting to move
the joint; (2) more or less deformity,
depending upon the degree of the dis
location; 60 swelling, due to the es-
cape of blood and serum from the
ruptured blood vessels; (4) certain
amount of disability; 90 limitation of
notion
If the dislocation is not reduced IRE.
placed) within a few days, there is
danger of the bones becoming fixed
In their unnatural positions.
In simple dislocations it is permis-
s1ble for the person giving the first
aid to attempt to reduce it by pulling
on the bone, at some distance from the
part dislocated, and at the same time
attempting to push the end dislocated
back into place. This should only be
tried two or three times, and if not
successful, the patient should be seen
by doctor.
Injuries From a Fall.
In injuries from a fall or other &C.
cident, where there is possibility Of
one OF the vertebra being dislocated.
the patient should be moved very care
fully. If necessary to turn the pa
tient over, be sure to turn the hips
and shoulders and head at the same
time and very slowly. This is very
important, because if a dislocation ex-
lists, the spinal cord, which runs
through the vertebra, is always pinch
ed to certain extent and any addi-
t1onal pressure upon it by the twisting
of the vertebra may destroy it alto
gether at that point and cause per-
manent paralysis Of the body below
that level, or if high up in the spine, it
may cause immediate death. The pa
tient should not be picked up by the
shoulders and legs and carried or
moved at all until his head and shoul-
ders and hips are firmly fastened to a
long board or shutter SO that there is
no possibility of the spine being twist
ed while he is being moved.
The Shoulder Joint.

upper bone of the arm (humerous)
may be either below, in front of. or
behind its normal position. Sometimes
1t goes back into place very easily,
and so 1t is a good plan to attempt to
reduce 1t two or three times at least.
:Ih1s should be done by having the pa-
t1ent lie down on his back and fixing
the shoulder so that it is fairly sta
tlonary, as having some one to hold
1t, and pulling down on the arm. The
pun should be steady and considerable
force used, but it must not be jerked
by sudden pull. Sometimes the
person giving the first aid can get &
better pull and also assist in pushing
the head of the bone into place by re.
moving one of his shoes and placing
MS heel under the injured shoulder
and pulling while bracing himself in
this way. Care must be taken not to
push up under the arm atoo forciblv.
as there is considerable danger of in
]urlng the blood vessels and nerves
that pass along under the shoulder.
The Elbow.
The elbow is quite frequently dislo-
Gated as the result of fall or twist
The usual kind is to have the bones of
the forearm dislocated backward. but
they may go to either side or both
backward and to one side. This dislo-
cation is usually rather difficult to re-
duce and a physician should be seen.
DisIocation of the Hin.
Inc hips are not very frequently
thrown out of joint and are with diff
Guilty put back into place. It NAV be
attempted by fixing the hips as solid
ly as possible and pulling down on
the leg, at the same time having an
assistant try to push the head of the
bone towards it's normal position. The
muscles around the hip joint are so
powerful that it is often necessary to
give a general anesthetic in order to
relax the spasm of the muscles which
accompanies every dislocation.
The Knee.
Dislocations at the knee Joint NAV
take place in any direction. The at
tempt should be made to reduce them
by the same general methods as In
dislocations Of the hip, but this usual.
ly is rather difficult to accomplish.
The Ankle.
Dislocations of the ankle are in
clined to be somewhat complicated
and usually it is better to have the
patient see physician at once rather
than first attempt to reduce it without
his aid.

London Goes to Bed EQrIv

Contrary to an opinion commonly
held in New York, London does not
obtain relief from the effects of the
early-closing laws by forming supper
clubs. There were such clubs fifteen
years ago, but nowadays there are no
supper clubs in London where the
thirsty can with slight formality Of
initiation get drinks after 1890 a. m,
when all restaurants and saloons are
closed ordinarily, the closing hour on
Saturday night being midnight and on
Sunday night eleven o'clock.
The police long ago made the life
of supper clubs impossible and there
is not one now in existence in Lon
don, says the New York Suns Lon
den correspondent. The average Lon
doner when his restaurant and pub"
closes must go home or to his club,
and London clubs with single ex-
ception are closed at two a. m. One
club keeps open until four a. m. Fake
clubs cannot exist nowadays.
The police permit two clubs in the
vicinity Of Leicester square, the heart
of London's tenderloin, to keep open
all night. One Of them is patronized

Spr'ains

At times the whole joint may appear
loose and relaxed. In a very short
time swelling takes place and then the
pain which may have been lessened
Tor time, returns. Movement OF the
joint now may be greatly lessened or
prevented altogether. 1t is very de-
sirable that the physician see the
sprain before the swelling becomes
too marked, because when it is pres
ent, 1t is next to impossible to tell
whether or not partial dislocation or
fracture also exists.
IN treating a sprain we want to
limit the degree of swelling as much
as possible. This will tend to lessen
the pain and the time of disability on
account of the sprain. In slight sprains
the part may be bandaged tightly or
strapped with adhesive plaster (Which
is usually kept at all drug stores and
is handy thing to keep in the house
hold), and the patient allowed to use
the part the same as before.
Severe sprains should be put at rest
for "a to 36 hours and the part kept
elevated so as to lessen the amount of
blood to the part Soaking the part
in cold water while it is gently rubbed
is usually the most effective way of
reducing the swelling. Sometimes
very hot water is more comfortable
and often acts as efficiently as cold.
The part should then be bandaged
tightly as the pressure in measure
prevents swelling Care must be ex-
ercised here not to get the bandages
too tight. The injured part should be
watched closely so that the swelling
does not make the bandages too tight.
Quite serious harm can be done by
too much pressure being applied.
After the acute pain has subsidized and
the swelling has ceased getting great
er, usually about the beginning of the
second "a hours, gentle massage and
passive movements (working and
moving the joint with the hands)
should be begun and the force used
should be gradually increased. After
a few days the part may be strapped
with adhesive plaster or bandaged and
used little as normally. Although
severe sprains should be put at rest
for day or two, it is not advisable
to put them up in splints or plaster
of paris casts or delay the massage
and movement too long, as there is
danger of stiff joint resulting.-Will-

THINGS SAID DURING THE WAR.

THINGS SAID DURING THE WAR.
1t is very interesting to read some
of the things said during the war Of
the rebellion, but which have now al
most faded from the memories of
men. The New York Sun reproduces
the following:
Here is what one of the orators
said, and he was a minister of the
gospel at that, and hailed from the
loyal state of Iowa:
The American people are ruled by
felons With all his vast armies,
Lincoln has failed! failed! failed!
failed! And still the moster usurp
er wants more victims for his slaugh-
ter pens. I blush that such a felon
should occupy the highest gift of the
people. Perjury and larceny are writ
ten al over him. Ever since the
usurper, traitor, and tyrant has oc-
supied the presidential chair the Re-
publican party has chouted war to
the knife and the knife to the hilt
Blood has flowed in torrents, and yet
the thirst of the old monster is not
quenched. His cry is ever for more
blood.
