HUNTERS HEAR
SAFETY ADVICE

Thirty-six per cent Of all fire
arms deaths occur in the last three
months of the year, which proves
that there is an open season on
hunters as we'll as on game, accord
ing to the National Safety Council.
The Council said November is the
month when hunting accidents go
up with a real bang, although Oc-
tober and December death totals
are we'll above the monthly aver
age.
A survey of hunting accidents in
Michigan revealed that just three
causes-humans in the line of fire,
mistaking humans for game, and
hunting with the safety catch off
led to almost two-thirds of the ac-
cidents in that state.
Other Causes Named
The Council said most hunting
accidents can be avoided if these
rules are followed this fall:
1. Treat every gun with the re-
spect due a loaded gun. This is the
cardinal rule of gun safety.
2. Carry only empty guns, taken
down or with the action open, into
your auto, camp and home.
8. Always be sure that the barrel
and action are clear Of obstruc-
tions.
b 4. Always carry your gun so that
you can control the direction of the
muzzle, even if you stumble.
5. Be sure of your target before
you pull the trigger.
6. Never point a gun at anything
you do not want to shoot.
7. Never leave your gun unat-
tended unless you unload it first.
8. Never climb a tree or a fence
with a loaded gun.
9. Never shoot at flat, hard
surface or the surface of water.
10. Do not mix gunpowder and
alcohol.

Health and
Beauty
Medicine in 1890
DR.. Sophia Brunsen

In reading a work on the practice
of medicine, published in Edin-
baugh, Scotland, in 1892, one is
impressed with the vast strides that
have been made in the healing art
since that period. At that time,
asepsis was not even dreamed of,
surgery was practically non-exist-
ent, the use of the microscope for
diagnosis was unknown, and the
X-ray could not have been imagin-
ed by Baron Munchasen, in his
widest flights of imagination.
Many Of the physicians were men
of lofty character, we'll educated in
the classics and versed in the medi-
cal lore of the times. They were
keen observers, humane, charitable,
and self-sacrificing to the last de-
gree. They held high places in their
communities, and in their nations.
Though they wrought we'll for the
times in which they lived, they were
fearfully handicapped, in the light
Of present achievement and knowl-
edge Most diseases were treated by
blood letting, blisters, vomiting and
drugs, the most common of which
seemed to be laudenum. A mixture
to produce emesis or vomiting was
composed of Anti-monial wine,
Squibb vinegar, syrup and rose wat
er. If they had filled their stomachs
with water and run their fingers
down their throats, it would have
proved much safer and less dis
agreeable.
At that time many patients who
were suffering from causes now
easily removed by surgery, were
compelled to remain invalids for
life, or run the risk of sudden death
Sick people were usually put upon
diet consisting of Cruel, weak
white wine, COW milk whey, penny
royal, or balm tea This diet, if con-
tinued for any length Of time was
conducive to aenemia and weak
ness.
| High class ladies were usually
very delicate, and much given to
fainting fits. Their pains were gen.
orally relieved by opiates, though
at that time, the different consti-
tuents of the poppy had not been
isolated and purified, as at present,
and morphine was unknown,
The author who published his
book in 1892 speaks of the condi-
ton from which so many women
suffered, known as Vesicovaginal
fistula. The lives of these sufferers
was one of long drawn-out agony.
It remained for Dr. Marion Sims, of
South Carolina to work out a cure
for this dread condition.
