Bleeding from the lungs may come
from a broken rib puncturing the
lung, but most frequently occurs in
where the blood vessels become eaten
into or destroyed by the disease.
Hemorrhage from the lungs usually
occurs as a result of a severe cough

red and frothy.
Treatment-Person should lie down
with head and shoulders elevated and
be kept very quiet in a dark room.
Cold, by means of ice bags, should be
applied to the chest, and the rest of
the body kept warm by the applica-
ton of hot-water bottles and blan-
kets. The patient may be allowed to
eat small quantities of crushed ice at
FREQUENT intervals.
Bleeding from the stomach usually
occurs as result of ulcer or cancer
| of the stomach. and the blood is vorn-
| tied up instead of being coughed up
| as in hemorrhage from the lungs. The
/ amount of blood vonaited IS usually a
| in color and mixed with the food, or
most frequently is dark red in color
4 and C1otted the result of having re-
4 NAMED in the stomach for some time
and looks like coffee grounds. This

as hemorrhage from the lungs, with
| the exception that the ice bag should
| be placed over the stomach.

No longer are members of Bridge

assistant clerk and stenographer of
the department, they claim that they
have one better. Her success in pre-
dieting weather conditions at least one
day ahead has been tested several
times recently and found to be such
as to be thoroughly depended upon.
It was but a few days ago that she
predicted a pleasant day against the
predictions of several of the so-caIled
weather prophets about the police and
charities building. The next day prov
ed to be Ideally pleasant, several who
had called off FISHING trips wished
they had not and determined to seek
Mrs. Burroughs advice another time.

now in operation. One part of the
mechanism now being installed is said
