When her husband got home that
evening Mrs. AckrOyd was weeping.

"It might be good deal worse. Our

RATTLESNAKE BITES.
Simple Rules Fer Treatment if You
Have the Nerve to Use Them.

Simple RULES Fer Treatment is You
Have the Nerve to Use Them.
The treatment of rattlesnake
wound resolves itself into the appli.
cation of few very simple rules. In
the first place. person wounded by a
snake usually does the very thing he
should not dO-that is, goes tearing off
at top speed for the nearest human
habitation. thereby increasing the cir
culation and disseminating the virus
through the system more rapidly. The
man should sit calmly down and bind
his handkerchief around the limb df
it is limb. break off q stout twig
and insert beneath the handkerchief,
producing rude tourniquet. and twist
until the circulation is effectually shut
off.
With a sharp knife make an X in
cisiOn over the wound taking care
to penetrate deeper than the fangs
have done. If he has good teeth and
no canker in his mouth. he may now
suck vigorously upon the wound. 1t
does no good 10 suck the Orlglnal
wound. 1t is quite difficult to get any
virus back through an opening not
greater in caliber than fine needle.
If all this is done without delay the
chances are that the patient will suf-
fer no greater Inconvenience from his
experience. If he chances to have
handy a stick of silver nitrate he can
cauterize the wound thoroughly. Fail
ing that. a brand from the fire will
serve. After a time he may release
his tOurniquet somewhat and permit
a portion of the retained blood to en-
ter the circulation. The system is ca
pable of taking care of great deal of
poison if it is allowed to flow into the
blood adually.-Outing.
