Homemade Emergency Cases

THE first aid cases which are sold in
the shops are wonderfully compact
in equipment and form and they are not
very expensive. A homemade case which
contains the things most necessary for
first aid assistance can be made at small
cost and should be a part of every house
holds summer equipment. Carried on au-
tomobile, train or tramping trip it may
save many painful moments.
A tin box is best for holding the first
aid equipment. If hinged box such as
certain brands of crackers come in is at
hand, much the better.
No matter how small the box it should
contain some antiseptic gauZe carefully
protected from dust and contact with
other substances 1t can be packed in the
wrapping in which ii is bought or in a
sheet OF waxed paper There should also
be small package of absorbent collton.
likewise carefully wrapped. A pair of
small sharp scissors for cutting the
gauZe should be with 1t. A small roll of
sticking plaster to hold temporary band
ages in place completes this part of the
outfit.
There should be a bottle of alcohol and
one of some antiseptic like peroxide of
hydrogen. These should of course be
carefully corked. There are sold small
rubber cork protectors-a ring of rub
Der to go about the mouth of the bottle
and a band OF rubber which spans the
cork-for a few cents apiece and these
could be used to keep the shoppers in the
bottles. Alcohol is used for cleansing any
injured surface. Peroxide loses some of
its strength after it is once opened, so
IL should be carried always Al small
quantities that can be frequently renew
ed. Boracic acid, in powdered form, in a
small pasteboard box envelope, which
can be dissolved In water, is another
efficacious antiseptic.
A small jar of vaseline and bottle of
spirits OF ammonia or some other stimu-
| liant to use in case of faintness or shock
should be added to the store. The vase
| line Is useful in case of cuts or burns or
| bruises. Boracic acid can also be used
| to cover the surface OF the skin in case
! of burning and il should be Immediately
| applied to the bruise caused by an insect
| sting.
Witch hazel and zinc ointment which

girdle encrusted with precious stones and
Ia chiffon veil were worn to complete the
picture. The six bridesmaids wore gowns
