the cap sleeves to these Ions, lacy af-

not gifted with pretty arms is wise

Poisons and Antidotes

The mother who knows lust what
to do when tho terrible accident OF a
dose of poison must be treated at once
may save childs life 1t is every
ones duty TO have in mind list OF
antidotes for ordinary posons. If your
memory is not good make one on a
piece Of paper ana paste 1t on the wall
of the bathroom.
OF course. the prevention of the pos
sibility Of n chld's taking poison Is
the important thing. but accidents are
always occurring in the most carefully
watched homes.
Impress on a childs mind the inn
portance OF taking nothing without
perm ssion. Candy pills may some
times be poison. Sometimes a mother
gives poison b. installing a bottle In
the medicine chest An excellent idea
is to hare ell bottles not only labeled,
but marked with 2 card on which a
little bell is tied. This easy warning
is particularly good in the dark, when
so many mistakes occur
Carbolic aciG IS one or the ordinary
poisons that is found in the home and
frequently taken in mistake. 1t burns
the mouth and its odor is unmstak-
able. Give epson salts in abundance,
or soap. |: The acid has burned tho
skin only. apply alcohol
child may take large quantity OF
alcohol which is classed as poison.
Give any simple enctic, such as mus
tard water. soap and water, etc. APP
ply cold douche on the head and
warmth to the body. If respiration is
at low register, raise and lower the
arms regularly. as is done in cases or
drowning
Corrosive sublimate should be .coun-
teracted by an cmetc followed by
whites of eggs or great quantities OF
milk. Give fannie acid freely and
dose Of castor oil TO open the bowels.
Opium. including laudanun,. NOR
phine. paregoric or soothing syrups,
can be counteracted by permanganate
of potash in doses of four to five
grains. If the mistake Is detected right
away Strong coffee is another anti
dote, also atropine. Keep the patient
awake At all costs by walking artt-
fetal respiration and a cold douche on
the dead and spine
Phosphorus polsons include matches
and some roach and rat poisons. Give
an cmetic and follow it by doses OF
permanganate OF potash, four or five
grains we'll diluted. Epson salts or
magnesia should then be administered
to open the bowels. Do not give milk
or oil of any kind. -
Silver nitrate Gunar caustic) has an
antidote in table salt followed by an
| emetic. Milk or whites OF eggs are
| also effective
Strychnine. especially in pills, is mis-
| taken often for other medicine. Its
! antdote is fannie acid, following an
eMetic. Bromide of potash given free
ly is good.
Alkalies. including ammonia potash,
caustic. should be treated by vinegar
or lemon juice, followed by sweet oil.

You have your dreams, and out OF those
dreams will come a more perfect man
hood and womanhood for future genera
tions. School hygiene is one of the great
problems of mankind"
School buildings and their equipment
was the general topic of the sectional
meetings in the afternoon and over so
addresses were made on this subject by
the representatives of four nations. Dr.
John A. Terrell OF the Rockefeller SAM
tary commission of Washington in a
paper on the spread of intestinal dis
eases through the rural school, declared
that the work done in the South in con-
nection with the hookworm disease indi-
Gated that its prevalence had made it a
real world problem.
In three and one-half years the Rookie
Teller commission and health boards in
IL southern states had made 66l 5Sl
microscopic examinations for parasitic
ova, he said. OF this number of pes
sons, 329,575 were found to have hook
worm. Private physicians treated 1872
305 additional persons. As an indirect
cause of death, DR.. Terrell said, the
hookworm has no equal, In many local
tiles so to 100 per cent of children in
the schools have been found to have
the disease. The infected children make
90 per cent or less progress than is made
by a normal healthy child.
DIR. Eugene II. Porter, commissioner OF
health of the state of New York, de-
clared that our system of philanthropy
is essentially false. Millions are spent
in the curing of diseases which might
be saved if lesser sum were spent for
prevention. He advocated the punish
ment by law of all who persistently
refuse to cultivate habits of health.
At general public meeting last night
addresses were made by DR.. Charles w.
Eliot president emeritus of Harvard
university, and Sir James Grant, presl-
dent of the national Canadian organic
ing committee. School life in the coun-
try, Sir James declared, offers per
feet safety valve for the rising gen
Grafton and so far as possible the infiu-
enee of the congress should be exer-
cised to counterfeit the rush from coun-
try to city.

CURRENT COMMENT
Defends Gov. Fletcher.

That Gov. Fletcher is in a fight with
the Republican machine is perfectly ap.
parent. This machine is the most re-
sourceful combination in existence, ow
ing to the powerful influence it can com.
mand, and the limited territorial space
within which it operates to control the
politics of people who have become
used to political guardianship. The feel
ing against the governor on the part OF
the machine leaders is becoming bitter
If you doubt, ask the first machine man
you meet on the street as to his opinion
of the chief executive of the state. Ten
to one you will get it straight from the
shoulder, so to speak.
If the governor keeps to his present
course he will find that every effort
within the command of the politicians
will be directed to destroy his admins
istration. Tremendous pressure is being
brought to bear to prevent Governor
Fletcher from appointing to public Office
any man except dyed in .the-wool
standpatter. This pressure is being di-
rected by the POLITICAL leaders here in
the state and by those guardians of
ours who compose the Vermont congress
sional delegation at Washington. This
paper has before said editorially that
we think the governor has his eyes open
to political conditions in the state We
feel sure that he will heneeforth be
free from any influence other than that
which should be legitimately considered,
and that he will follow the dictates Of
his good judgment in official actions
Already the action of the governor IN
the removal of the chairman of the pub
lie service commission is meeting the APP
prevail of the people notwithstanding she
effort that was made to shape public
opinion against him Immediately after
the action. People are coming to un-
derstand the exact situation If we
mistake not the people will be back of
the governor in the pending contest. We
sincerely trust that this is the begin
ming of the end of the control of state
affairs by the invisible government.
When the governor gets after the ex-
press companies and makes them CON
tribute their Just share for the support
of our state government, and rips up The
connection of a certain insurance com
pany with the affairs of state, we reck-
on that the machine for the first time
will realize that it is facing a contest
for its life-Wilmington Times.
