SNAKE BITE

Ac,.ta b;tes are rare injuries in
this country, but bites from p0lsoi!ier
ous snakes are so rapidly IataI
mot given proper attention tnat u Is
verv important that the student OF
6rsf aid should know how to treat
them. The rattlesnake and the moe
casin are most generally to be feared
in the United States. When IN the
regions where these snakes are com
monty found, it is we'll to avoid dan
GER by wearing high boots or leg
Sings by day and sleeping on cot
or raised platform instead OF on the
Ground The Mexican plan when
Sleeping on the ground Of surround
ing the sleeper with hair rope or
lariat is undoubtedly good one as
snakes will not cross such a rope
If a person has been bitten by a
snake. Immediately tie a string,
handkerchief, or bandage between
the bitten part and the body If tins
practical. This can be done only IN
The limbs. This cutting off Of the re-
turn of the blood to the body, OF
course. prevents general absorption
of tha poison. The wound should
then be soaked in hot water II this
is obtainable, and, in any event
squeezed, imilked, or sucked until II
bleeds freely, thus washing, out the
poison Sucking the wound Is not
dangerous unless there are cuts or
scraps in the mouth, and the danger
of infection to the wound so import
ant usually may be disregarded here
on account of the Importance OF eX~
tracing the poison as soon as posi-
bic. These procedures should not
he DELAYED for a minute, but doctor
should b summoned as soon as posi-
bic.
The further first aid treatment
consists Of burning or cautenZng
the wound. For this, ammonia and
permanganate Of potassium are both
used. Strong ammonia is required
and there should be no fear about
using both freely in strong solution.
The patient should also be dosed
freely with stimulantS. A big dose
of aromatic spirits Of ammonia
should be given at once and should
be repeated as often as seem neceS-
sary to keep up the strength. DO
not be afraid to give too much, Tor
persons bitten by poisonous snakes
reuauire a large amount Of stimu-
lants. Any other stimulant may be
given instead OF ammonia if it can be
obtained more readily.
Leave the string or bandage tiec
above the wound IN place as long as
YOU dare After an hour, however
you must remember that your tight
bandage is likely to cause mortified
ton as it has cut off the circulation
Ii must therefore be loosened. Never
try to remove it all at once, but
loosen it a little at q time so that
only a small amount Of poison will
be carried into the body. then tight
en-, and repeat after a few minutes
if tn patient does not seem to be
greatly affected by the poison. IN
this way, you may finally be able to
remove the constructing band entire
~. But, on the other hand, if the
poison which escape into the body
seriously depresSe the patient you
must keep the bitten part tied of
and take chances on modification.

UNDER DRY LAW
Federal Grand Jury Returns Record
Number of Liquor Charges
At Boston

BOSTON, May 10. = The federal
grand jury yesterday reported to Judge
Morton in the United States district
court 2i4 indietmehts and q no bills
out of a list Of 2'35 liquor violation cases
presented to It by Assistant United
States Attorneys William j. White, jr,
and Efihu ID Stone, representing the
greatest percentage Of indictments under
the national prohibition law ever re
turned by grand jury in this district
cut of any given list, of cases presented
The action of this grand, jury shows
radical change of public sentiment to-
ward violators of the liquor laws" AS
sistant White stated yesterday when the
jury reported. These jurymen are
representatives of the people of the
commonwealth They are drawn from
every part of it. The law and order
Slogan has evidently swept the whole
state. The report shows that the people
insist that the liquor laws be enforced. .
Harold q. Kern of 80 Rockland street,
West Roxbury, arrested with John J..
Mccarthy, a proprietor of the Quincy
House. following the famous raid at
that hotel, is indicted in the list returned
yesterday. The case against Mccarthy
has been dropped by the United States
attorney. The indictment is expected to
reopen the entire Quincy House affair if
Kern decides to fight the bill before a
jury in the federal courts here Kern
is charged with illegally possessing
liquor. s~s..
Liquor law violators listed as living in
Greater Boston number ID while only
six no" bills are listed for the district.
The western and central sections of
Massachusetts were hard hit with 40
indictments. involving about 40 per-
sons Southeastern Massachusetts pro-
vided two score more.
4 point that aroused comment in fed
eral circles is that practically nine out
of 10 persons indicted bear foreign
names. Prohibition officials comment
on the fact that a large proportion Of
liquor law viOlatOrs is limited to alien
and Notwithstanding portions of the
population.
