Princess Marie, second daughter
of King Ferdinand of Roumania, is
in her eighteenth year, an age at
which she should be most interested
in arranging for her entry into court
life. Now, however. her activities
are remote from anything connected
with the glamor and dazzle of the
royal court. She is aiding her
mother, who is head of the Rou-
manian Red Cross, in directing the
work of caring for the countrys war
victims, and every day finds her in
one of the base hospitals at Jassy,
nursing the sick and wounded.

sovereions In Bolivia.

Bolivia has strange connection with
Great Britain in the fact that the Eng
lish sovereign is the standard gold coin.
This is minted from local gold at the
capital of the country, La Paz, along
with the Peruvian half sovereign,
which also is legal tender. Although
Bolivia is as yet quite new coun-
try and has not had time to adopt q
coinage Of her own, she has found an
opportunity Of establishing state mo-
nopolies on alcohol, spirituous liquors
and tobacco, rendering the prohibition
of them at any time an easy matter

Low BLOOD PRESSURE.
First Aid to Those Suffering From
Homorrhaoe or Shock.


Hsmorrhass or Shock.
One hears great deal about the
danger Of high blood pressure, but not
much about the danger of too low q
pressure. Yet the latter may be very
swiftly fatal 1t results often from
shock, as well as from severe loss Of
blood. But there Is a very simple
means Of giving temporary relief,
which every one should know, since
such knowledge might often be the
means Of saving life.
A diastolic pressure Of fifty MILNE
tiers is critical, for the blood tends to
accumulate in the abdomen, but death
may be avoided If immediate means be
taken to raise the arterial pressure. A
late number Of La Revue gives the
following directions:
"The wounded person In whom ar
tertal pressure is low should be placed
Immediately on an operating table
heated by electricity, with his feet ele-
waited for an hour or more some thirty
millimeters about one and one-quarter
inches) higher than his head. If the
diastolic pressure remains below eighty
millimeters an injection Of isotonic
serum should be made and If necessary
repeated. II the pressure does not re-
main sufficiently high after the second
injection another injection is made of
adrenalin into a vein, preferably q
vein near the heel"
1t will be noted that the first part Of
these directions can be carried out by
any One-namely, the application Of
warmth and the raising of the patients
heels higher than his head. This is SO
important and so eff1cacious that the
famous French physician and research
scientist, DR.. Charles Richet, has made
it q practice In his lectures to students
to give them the striking object lesson
Of dog which had been bled almost
to the point of exhaustion, SO that
death was imminent, being instantly
revived by this simple expedient Of
changing its position. When he was
apparently dead while the head re-
manned higher than the extremities, as
soon as the head was lowered the wan
ing life returned
First aid to the injured, therefore,
suffering from hemorrhage or shock is
to place the victim on a mattress or
bench and raise the feet slightly high
er than the head.-Review Of Reviews.
