SPRAINED ANKLES.
They Are. as a Rule, Accompanied by
Broken Bones.

They Are. as a Rule, Accompanied by
Broken Bones.
The first step in the treatment of a
sprained ankle should be a carefully
taken y ray photograph. according to
Dr. s. Bernard Rosenzweig III the New
York Medical Journal. for the reason
that simple sprains without fractures
Of the bones are rare. And the treat
ment of n break is different from that
of n Sprain.
The simple spTain is treated with
movement and massage. The ankle is
soaked for fifteen or twenty minutes in
water as hot as can be borne This is
followed by massage and passive move
mentS. then alternate hot and cold
doucheS. and loose dressing of lead
and opium wash is applied. This IS
carried out twice day. and after three
days the patient is made TO move his
own ankle. This is now strapped for
support, and the patient is advised TO
walk about, wearing high laced shoe
and carrying a stick.
If bone be broken the ankle is i'm.
modified with heavy adhesive dress
ing or light plaster cast. At the end
Of week massage. baking and move
ment are given, and not until after this
is the patient allowed to try to walk.

THAT was given to one whose voice
is a counterpart of yours"
"But you cannot see her and can
hear me-"
There was no reply to this. He saw
nothing. he heard nothing, but he felt
himself EMBODIED in an embrace.
One day a chaplain was summoned
to perform a marriage ceremony. A
blind officer was married to the rich
American who had founded the hospi-
tai in which he occupied a room.
During this courtship the surgeon
who attended cambridge gave neither
him nor any one else hope that he
would ever see again. One eye was
gone. Would the other ever admit the
light? One day the surgeon performed
an operation on the eye that had been
poisoned. after which the patient was
kept in a dark room for a long time
When the light was admitted to the
room he exclaimed:
Il can see!"
"What do you wish to see most"'
asked the surgeon.
"My wife"
II am here" exclaimed Aileen and
stood before her husband-the girl he
had loved as his pupil.
There had been a change in the af-
fairs of the handsome teacher since he
had left America. but he did not yet
know it. His cousin, a young man
near his own age. was heir to a for
tune. The cousin. a soldier, had been
killed in Belgium, and cambridge by
his death became heir at law to his
estate.
This inheritance removed a certain
feeling of regret in cambridge that he
would be the poor husband of rich
woman 1t provided him with his
share of this worlds goods. and he was
not dependent for funds on his wife.
The only discomfort is that he must go
through life with Il patch over one
eye, but there is some compensation in
the fact that he gave the eye in his
country's service.

have on states which have adopted
prch bition or are bordering on pro-
hibition. They say that states may
not 60 dry as readily when the voters
realize that prohibition means not
only the adjustment of the saloon
but the decanter in the sideboard as
well.
But when you come up to sum the
LIQUOR crowd argument that is not
what they think at all. They know
that with the Webb Kenyon law put
into practice that the shipment of
LIQUOR into dry states will be stopped
entirely, something the individual
states have been unable to stop with
out the law.
The trouble has always been that
the voters of the country have not
been allowed to have their say in
the matter, but have been compelled
to wait for legislatures and congress
to grant them the privilege of a vote.
The trouble is the liquor interests
are afraid to deal squarely with the
voter and allow him to decide this
important question. They would
rather place their fate in the hands
of few.

Battle Eiephan%s

One Of the most terrifying engines
of war; of ancient times was the bat
lie elephant employed by Pyrrhus,
AleXandcr's cousin, in the first Of the
famous "Pyrrhic victories" over the
Romans. Twenty of these huge beasts
were used against the enemies of the
Tarentines at the battle of Heraclea in
$50 B. c. The strange moving noun
tains of flesh caused a wave of fear t0
sweep over the Romans, and they fed
from the field of carnage. but after one
experience with the animals their cour-
age returned. and henceforth the war
elephant was more of curiosity than
an effective engine.

Editor Washburn Times
| still read the Times and my at
tention was repeatedly called to the
hospital discussion appearing both in
your paper and in the Ashland Press.
/ can easily sympathize with the as
piratians of SVashburn folks to even
tually establish a hospital. But is
there need of one? Is the Ashland
hospital overcrowded? Do you think
it would be cheaper to send patient
to a newly established non-sectarian
Washburn hospital? do know it
would be much more expensive. No
non-sectarian hospital can compete
with Sisters in smaller communities
where the majority of the people are
just plain folks. The lay nurses
work for wages and must receive
their pay, their motto must neces-
sarily be: mo pay. no Service. :"
But Sisters work for no wages, and
they receive none. Non-sectarian
hospitals are successes only in large
cities where wealthy people dwell.
who are willing to pay very high re-
munerations. Such hospitals are
usually endowed or at least receive
large gifts frequently.
Rice Lake has been fussing along
for years with two insignificant nom
sectarian hospitals. Absolutely no
progress was made. The incomes
after paying high, but unreasonable
salaries to the nurses, were hardly
sufficient to fuel the buildings.
Sisters have finally arrived there
now, and henceforth watch things
move. Hence if Washburn must
have hospital make no mistake.
Whether you like the Sisters religion
or not secure their services if you
can. 1t is good sound business to
do so.
Now, why does Ashland want a
new hospital? l thought ST.
Joseph's was in Ashland. Nay
more, ST. Joseph's is one OF the best
institutions of the kind in Wisconsin.
Why a new non-sectarian hospital:
To satisfy the within or piqued pride
of some physicians? Not much of
an argument. 1t is sometimes assert
ed that the petty jealousies among
various clergymen painfully impress
the laity. Well, the rivalries among
the medical folks certainly nauseate
the laity too.
If anyone imagines that he can es-
tablish a hospital in Washburn or
Ashland that will compete in efficien-
cy and equipment with Sisters
hospital and at the same moderate
price, then he is fully welcome to all
the fame that he will acquire.
