Management of Wounds.

Sooner or later nearly everybody must
either suffer or be called upon to treat
a wound of the scalp or leg from an
automobile accident. Even If you con-
fine your joy rides to the crochety but
unuuestionably safe street car, unless
you're extremely good at the standing
long jump some alert driver Is sure to
get you eventually before you can land
on the curb. Don't bother to learn how
to apply artificial respiration. What's
the good of knowing that II you are the
luckleSS one who has the wind knocked
out of him? But run over these few
observations about wound treatment,
just in case.
Scalp or other skin laceration should
be plentifully and repeatedly washed
with plain soap and water, and II the
wound is sustained in a street accident
or in any situation where it may posi-
bly, be contaminated by manure, then
as soon as possible the patient should
receive q prophylactic dose Of anti
tetanic serum. It is much better to
prevent lockjaw than it Is to worry
about 1t. Spend S or 10 minutes wash
ing the wound with repeated applica-
lions of soap and water. Draw the
edges well apart to uncover any i'm
bedded particles Of dirt or foreign mat
Ter. Ills Is especially important WHICH,
there is much brtising Of the surround
ing skin.
If medical attention can be had at
once, it is better that any necessary
stitches be inserted now, but not tied
until day after tomorrow. If you have
to use adhesive plaster strips In lieu OF
stitches. do not draw them tightly.
Having cleansed the wound Of all dirt
or foreign matter by means of soap and
water washing. II there is any iodine at
hand, apply one swab of tincture of
iodine, and follow that Immediately by
wet antiseptic dressing, say, tea
spoonful of tincture of iodine in a pint
of normal salt solution. Normal salt
solution is a level Tablespoonful Of COM
mon salt dissolved in a pint of boiled
water. Keep the wound well covered
with many folds of gauze, muslin or
washed cheesecloth soaked constantly
with this solution.
If a wet antiseptic dressing is not
feasible, or If no soap Is available, then
Just swab the fresh wound once with
tincture of iodine and then apply what
ever temporary sterile dressing you
have at hand-a fold of gauze from q

Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Successes and failures! These are the
two really big words in the dictionary
of human appraisement.
Try to think of two words that repre-
sent more fundamental classification OF
people. Then try to think of two better
words to represent the thought-pictures
you have of all the other persons you
know anything about. After you have
pondered over these two points, try to
think of two words that have wider
variety of meanings in the minds OF
those who use them for appraisal pur-
poses.
1t will not be long until a flock of
ifs" "and's," "when's." where's" and
why's" will put in their appearance.
The terms are vastly fundamental and
just as vastly relative.
There must be some common meeting
ground for the meanings we ascribe to
these two terms when we use them for
evaluating other people. Otherwise they
would have no meaning. We would be
unable to use them in our common
language.
1 am inclined to believe that that
indefinable something known as$"tem-
permanent" is back of all our notions OF
success and failure. When we think OF
some one as a success or as failure
we are not measuring what he has
attitude of mind he assumed and main
tanned until he carried some venture
through to the end, even though the
final result was zero accomplishment.
AS you pass from generalities to par
ticular cases the word temperament
begins to break up into variety of
meanings. Sometimes a man is a sue
cess because he displayed fortttude.
Again, he is a success because he kept
on displaying it. Then you call 1t
pluck. Still again. he may be rated
success because he was patient. "Tf1ey
also serve who only stand and wait"
Often as not, those who only wait turn
out to be successes of the first rank.
That's one way of Sidestepping difficult
ties that might cause failure.
Who are the failures? Those who
never had an original idea. Or If they
did. never found energy to put it to
work. There's great deal of differ
ence between the man who hangs
around for something to turn up" and
the man who turns up something.
The successes don't have much to say
about how they do things; the failures
will literally lombard you with reasons
why they never accomplished anything.

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

October 70, 1862.-The tug Leslie,
just arrived here from the lower Poto-
mac River, has brought up Thomas
Harmon, James j. Swan, Augustus
Howell, j. H. Parsons. r. B. Dorsey and
F. Thornton, who were recently captured
near BretonS Bay while attempting to
cross the Potomac River into Virginia.
They are all young men, hailing from
Prince Georges and Charles counties,
Md, and are believed to have been at
tempting to escape from the Union
Army draft. There were 10 in the
party, but 4 made good their escape.
The men brought here are confined
today in the Old Capitol Prison.
Capt. johnson OF the 10th New Jer-
Sey Volunteers, brigade officer of the
day, arrested about midnight last night
two citizens Of Georgetown. named Ho-
ratio Cropley and John Olden, on a
charge Of tampering with the guard at
Aqueduct Bridge. They were taken be-
fore the provost marshal this morning
and released after a severe reprimand.
George Kleine, German, who is a
driver for a sutler, was caught near this
city on the road to Baltimore with
three Government horses, which he was
endeavoring to take to New York. He
says he was employed to do so by an
unnamed Union Army captain.
ABOUT ZUU QeSeTCeTS IEOII1 Tile ATIly
Of the Potomac, recently gathered here.
were sent back this morning by the
provost marshal, Maj. Doster, to their
respective regiments in charge Of Capt.
Stratton Of the 149th Cor BucktaiD
Pennsylvania Regiment.
The latest news from the Union Army
in front of Washington indicates that
1t Is In motion to meet the movements
of the Confederate forces in Virginia.
It Is believed at the front that Gen. Lee
has divided his army into two large
corps. one under Jackson and one under
Longstreet, and Is leaving the region in
which he has been posted since he re-
crossed the Potomac River from Mary
land into Virginia.
From reports received here this morn
ing it looks as If a portion of Jackson's
advance has crossed the Blue Ridge by
the gap at Front Royal, and it seems
that force of 5000 Confederates. I'M
der Walker, which is probably Long
streets advance, has been at Upperville
for two days.
It is thought in military circles here
that the Confederate generals may be
expecting to make a dash at Sigel's
Union Army Corps at and around Cen
terville, Va. News of a considerable
battle in that vicinity at any moment
would be no surprise here.

Home in Good Taste
BIZ SARA HILAND.

There is nothing especially new
about paper screens, but there are
novel ways of decorating them which
make them stand out from the ordi-
nary screens.
In the illustration is a screen which
while very simple has a great deal of
charm in that instead of having the
three panels decorated as separate
units, they have been brought closer
together by each having a portion of
an illustration, thus making only one
picture.
Ordinarily each picture would take
up the center of each panel, leaving a
margin all around. whereas study OF
this screen decoration arrangement will
show that the entire central portion OF
the middle panel is covered and that
the outside panels are right and left,

The Sylph, while being used by the
Secretary Of the Navy, carried crew
of 81 men. But that included seven
stewards for duty at luncheons and
parties. Eight men can sail her.
Navy experts expect she will bring
hardly one-fifth of what she cost the
Navy 81 years ago.

NO PROFIT

There might be some excuse for
crime If those engaged in it in time,
should land in Easy street, If they
could bank on future ease, and comfort
meath their vines and trees, with bun
dies all complete. In other lines OF
industry men feel the years will set
them free from poverty and care; as
they grow old they will amaSs package
Of the good old brass, their cupboards
won't be bare. And when they sleep
beneath the sod they'll leave behind
goodly wad to comfort mourning kin;
their good repute will flourish still when
they are resting on the hill and cease to
toll and spin. I've known a thousand
gifted knaveS, I've seen them teeter to
their graves, and nearly always broke;
they stole and swindled left and right,
and there was not PUNK in sight
when they were due to croak. They'd
had, of course, their better times when
they were loaded down with dimes and
walked in silk array; when all their
projects prospered we'll and for little
transient spell their calling seemed to
pay. But crooks can never hold their
spoil; it slides away like running oil; 1t
vaniShes like smoke; today they may
display the price of long. cold bottles on
the ice; tomorrow they'll be broke. The
thrifty crook is seldom seen: he gathers
in the good, long green as though it
grew on trees, surrounded by cheap
parasites through wasteful days and
hectic nights his gaudy bundle fees. A
little while, perhaps, the crook may,
like a little Croesus look, all decked
with precious stones, but when at last
he's stricken down a weary and resent
full town must plant his hayward bones.
The man who makes a crooked haul
pursues the poorest trade of all; he can
not make 1t pay; it is more sensible and
sane to toll in sunshine and in rain for

use.
She has seen service in two wars
Spanish American. and World War.
In the first the Sylph was one of the
small boats which carried dispatches
from ship to ship. In the World War
she was detailed to the mouth of the
bay at Norfolk, where she helped keep
submarine nets in place and kept watch
for the appearance of German U-boats
But it was as background for
parties where the Sylph was shown to
best advantage. And the ships log is
full of mention of these affairs.
There is one in particular-the trip
down the Potomac with the President
Of Costa Rica as the honored guest.
On that day the little ship steamed
away from the Washington Navy Yard
with the ensign of Costa Rica flying
from her mast beside the Stars and
Stripes. The party stopped at Mount
Vernon-the Costa Rican ensign was
hauled down when the guests dis
embarked, but ran up again when they
returned.
The year 1901 was the Sylph's great
est year. During that time she served
as the private yacht of President Nc
Kinley, and continued so until the
Mayfower was purchased.
Inc greater part OF the Time since
the World War the Sylph has been
in the Navy Yard. However,
in 1927 when Lindbergh arrived in
Washington after his flight to Paris
she was hurriedly pressed into service
to take the famous aviator down the
Potomac to avoid the crowd.
In her day the Sylph was hardy
craft. BY taking the inland route she
could go as far south as Florida. Nor
was she afraid of the Atlantic. Many
