Slams Of Pain.

1t is difficult TO estimate the degree
of pain, but there are certain signs OF
suffering which are unmistakable-
the pinched features, the knotted
brow, the rolling eyes with widely
dlated pupils, the ashen countenauce,
the cool and clammy skin. the thready
pulse. the increased blood pressure
the hands alternately clenched and
opened, the cries and groans and the
bodily contortions. All these present
a definite picture with which every
experienced physician or nurse Is
familiar

The basis Of sandwiches Is the bread,
