OF FLESH WOUND
Method Of Value to Every Owner Of
Stock ls Given by Prof. c. X.
Glover Of Massachusetts.

The following treatment OF flesh
wounds by Prof. G. II. Glover Of Mas
sachusetts is OF value 10 every owner
OF stock, as he Is a recognized au'
thority. The ordinary wound will heal
n not interfered with. This Interior
ence may be from germs, parasites
meddllng with the wound. on the part
Of man or the animal itself. The
FIRST thing 10 do, OF course, would be
TO stop the hemorrhage. This can be
accomplished by a tight bandage OF
clean, white muslin applied either
over the wound or above Il. A thread
may be run under the artery by using
a needle and tied DO not use -four
dirt, cobwebs or anything Of that sort
on the wound; they are unnecessary
and may produce dangerous infection.
Having checked the bleeding remove
the clots Of blood and cut OF the rag
ged edges OF tissue with clean shears,
A pan OF antseptic solution should be
provided. and one Of the best antIsep-
tics on the farm Is Creolin. Add tea
spoonful OF this to a pint Of water that
has been boiled and use It on the
wound two or three times a day. Place
the knife, shears, etc, In this solu-
ton and wash the hands before begin
ming to dress the wound.
See that there is good drainage
from the wound and do not tie the
wound up with covering Of any kind.
In about one week It may be we'll to
change to dry dressing. In the mean
time It win be well to get in communi-
cation with some skilled veterinarian
who will advise you in the case from
time to time. | do not mention sew
ing up the wound for the reason that
in ragged cuts It is better not TO do
so. Remember that the principal thing
is to get the wound healthy at the
start and then It will heal with very
little interference.

THE PEEvISH CHILD
NEEDS TREATMENT

When a child sulks drowsily. or IL
fretful. Il is usually due TO some slight
disorder Of the digestive organs. and a
mild laxative Is very often all that IL
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy Of spirits.
In cases where the use OF a gentle,
effective laxative stimulant is indl-
Gated, many OF the best physicians are
now prescribing DIR. Caidwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
ly the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In it's action on the bowels.
and far preferable to violent cathArt'
les and purgativo waters. II is very
pleasant to the taste and Is an ideal
remedy TO regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels It's easy,
natural action makes II especially de-
sirable in the case OF children, a dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsln is sold
by druggists everywhere in 50c and
800 bottles. II you have never tried
this splendid remedy, write to DIT. W.
