YOUR HEALTH
BURNS N A L
BY DIR. CLlTTORD c. ROBINSON

Nothing gives more real pain to
the square inch than a severe burn
from any source or a scald from hot
water, steam or any boiling LIQUID,
In severe cases of burns the
physician should be called at once.
Inc pain may not be as great, but
the nerves are sometimes burned
out or destroyed and treatment must
be immediate to save life. The in
Jury to the issues is practically the
same in both burns and scalds. In
most cases the burning from hot
liquids is not as deep as from the
dry burn, although it may be just
as painful.
In the surface or superficial
burns the skin is Redeemed, infamed
or blistered. In the more severe or
deeper burns the skin is a sort Of
pale yellowish-white and in some
extreme cases almost black.
In the first treatment of an ordi-
nary or rather severe burn the less
ening or neutrallzing of the shock
is of the most importance. Many
persons imagine hal they have been
injured much more severely than is
usually the case
A hot bath is good for this condi-
tioH. A temperature OF l0U degrees
Fahrenheit being about right. If
a bath is not possible or practical
hot blankets or hot water bottles
may afford the desired relief. Ad-
minister some : mild stimulant or
warm drink and try and induce
quietness and normal heart action.
Be careful that no clothing touch
es the burn. Cover the parts burned
with soft linen, using boric acid
ointment or soft bandages saturated
with boric acid lotion or picric acid.
Lastly wrap in paraffine paper or
raw cotton to exclude the air.
If the burn is a slight one and no
blisters have formed, dust with flour
or baking soda and wrap loosely to
exclude all air. If blisters have
formed pierce at the edge with a
sterilized needle, holding it a mo-
ment in a flame for the purpose.

volcanic disturbances is always near
the sea or other large supplies of
water and that the disturbances are
directly caused by the filtration of
water down to igneous matter, and
the consequent generation of vast
quantities Of steam, which frees it,
self by explosion. Others have
sought to explain earthquakes as
part of the phenomena of a planet
