Tills dtseoloralion, a familiar example
of which is the black eye of evil repute,
is caused by the escape Into the tissues

broken by the blow. S,imetimes a larger
vessel is metered, and then a rounded
tenor, a blood -tumor, is produced.
The best treatment of a slight bruise
is the application al cold, by means of
an ice -bag or of cloths wrung out of ice -
water, and frequently changed as they
become warm.
in the aged, or in persons given to the
use of liquors, whose liseues have little

the continuous application of cold may
be Injurious. Then hot cloths or a hot-

cloths, whether hot or cold, may be ad-

is unbroken, the part should be washed

SIMPLE REMEDIES.
To cure a cold snuff baking powder
and use it as a gargle.
For rheumatism sprinkle common salt
1n the bottom of one's shoes. Put in
fresh salt every uutrning.
For persons poisoned by contact with
dog -wood, ivy, or poisoned oak, a speedy
cure 1s assured by bathing the afflicted
parts freely with a solution of saleratus,
two teaspoonfuls to the pint o1 water.
A dose of Epsom salts taken internally
complete the cure.
Neuralgia Cure. -I suffered a long time
with attacks of neuralgia about the eye.
There seemed to be no relief except to
wear IL out, which usually required Ion
five to six hours, until accidentally I
discovered that by tubbing vigorously
with the hand or a rough towel relief
was almost immediate, restoring what
seemed to be arrested circulation.
When a succession of hot flannels are
needed, instead of scalding your hands
with boiling water, wring a flannel ht
cool water; put .it on on old plate. PML
it in a hot oven for a few minutes.
Carry the plate to the sick room and re-
turn it to the oven with another flannel.
Try the heat of the flannel with the back
of the trend.
Valuable Liniment. -Place in a quart
bottle a pint of best kerosene all, add as
much camphor' gum as will dissolve in
same, putting in a cake aL a time, and
shaking well for throe or four days.
When the kerosene has absorbed all the
camphor gum it will take add a half-
pint of sweet oil, shake vigorously, and
it Is ready far use. The of kerosene
is not noticeable and the ingredients for
this are within the reach of even the
poorest parson.
A hot application which does away
with wringing and wEb scalding the
hands can be macre as follows Take
two clean shells and fold one until 1t is
about Iwo fed by one. Aon this tightly
and pour boiling water into each end
until the inside is saturated well. .Have
the other sheet folded about two feet
by four ; lay it lengthwise on the
affected part -tile Lungs, for instance -
which loaves it reaching down to the
knees, Qu'clsly unroll the hot pack,
place il, wet side down, on the part
covering the chest, and bring up the
part of the second sheet extending be-
low, to cover the hot pe le, Cover with
flannels or 0-1101 water hag, and you
will have an application which will keep
hot for several hours.

weather, and removing all tight clothing
from the neck and chest, especially the

The points to be alined al are -first
and immediately the restoration of
breathing; and secondly, after breath-
ing Is restored, the promotion of
warmth and circulation.
The efforts le restore breathing must
be commenced immediately and ener-
getically, and persevered in Tor one or
two hours, or until a medical man has
proncunecd that life is extinct Efforts

beyond removing lee tvet clothes and
drying the skin, must not be made un-
til Ihe first appearance of natural
breathing; for if circulation of the blood
be induced before breathing has recom-
menced, the restoration to life will be
endangered.
IL -TO RESTORE BREATHING,
To Clear the Throat, -Place the pati-
ent on Ihe floor or ground with the face

der the forehead, in which position all
fluids will more readily escape by the
mouth, and the tongue itself will "a11

APPEARANCES WHICH GENERALLY
ACCOMPANY DEATH.
Breathing and the heart's action cense

closed; the pupils dilated; the tongue
approaches to the under edges of the
lips, and these, as well as the nostrils

ness and parlor of surface increase.
CAUTIONS.
Prevent unnecessary crowding of per-
sons round the body, especially if in
an apartment.
Avoid rough usage, and do not allow
the body to remain no the back unless
the tongue is secured.
Under no circumstances hold the body
up by the feet
On no account place the body in a
warm bath unless under medical dtree-
lion, and even then it should only be
employed as a momentary excitant.

NERVOUS INDIG'GSTION.
A Severe Case Cured by Dr. Williams'

"I suffered so much from nervous
dyspepsia that 1 feared 1 would be-

of Varney, Ont. "For months," says
Airs. Austin, "1 was prostralecl with
this trouble. I got so had I could not

ly choking me. I Wes affected with
such terrible feelings of dizziness and
nausea. 11101 I had to leave the table

HOPE FOR BALD HEADED
MAY BP CURED 1P Tf 3'a' BREATHE,
COIILEGPLY.
Anxiety Need Not Now Weigh heavily
Upon the Unadorned
Bale.
Ordinary baldness Is considered lite
consequence of inadequate chest breath-
ing, in a recent paper by Dr, D. M. Par-
ker, lecturer at the Detroit College of
Medicine. The inadequate chest breath-
ing allows a poisonous' substance to
develop in the lungs. This poisonous
substauce circulates in the blood. 'Tile
roots of the bah' are an indirect result
of their situation over the cranium:
but this deprivation is directly entailed
by Ihe poison generated in the upper
chest, the circulation of the consequent
poison through the body and fio starve -
lien of the hair roots because the flow
of their normally scanty nourishment is
thus totally checked. Dr. Parker has
studied this hypothesis el his for year's,
treating baldness and experimenting on
animals.
INADEQUATE BREATHING.
Inadequate upper chest breathing
leaves residual air undisturbed in the
air cavities of a portion of the lungs.
The residual air In any portion of the
lungs flint is not made use of for breath-
ing purposes must necessarily lie undis-
turbed in the lung cavities. The resi-
dual air left in the lungs by inadequate
breathing is warm, and it is saturated
with moisture. Whenever residual alr
or, what is the same piing, expired air,
is ]rapt chambered in lire presence of
warmth and moisture it invariably un-
dergoes change, and develops a soluble
poison that is capable, when present in
the normal bloat, of exerting a distur-
bance so far as concerns hair growth.
ACTION OF POISON.
It might be thought strange that a
poisonous substance, circulating in Ihe
blond should limit its destructive action
le the hale on the top of the head. This
is explained by Dr. Parker's statement
that the roots of the hair on the top of
the head, lying over the bard, glisten-
ing, and practically bloodless eccipilo-
fronlal aponeurosis, are deprived of the
nourishment that dna roots of the hair
of other portions of the head and of
the face derive from the soft, blood -sat-
urated tissue with which they are in
close relationship. As a result, the hair
roots of the top of the head are of com-
paratively low vitality, and yield readily
to rho action of the poison.
SIX WEEKS' CURE.
Observation applied to 'thousands of
persons affected with common baldness
developed, in Dr. Parker's experience,
not a single exception to the mule that
persons afflicted with common baldness
do not employ upper chest breathing,
and those not afflicted with common
baldness do employ upper chest respira-
tion. Moreover, persons suffering from
ordinary baldness land a remedy in the
practice of upper chest.breathing. After
one week dandruff entirely disappears.
"Phe hair begins to lose its dryness and
harshness. In six weeks new hair be-
gins to make its appearance. IL is very
line, and first manifests itself at the
edges of the bald spot. Craniums that
had been bald for twenty years have de-
veloped hair after an amount of upper
chest breathing. Of course, the prac-
tice must be steady and uninterrupted
0r there will ensue a relapse.
WHY DID THE COMPANY SMILE.
A. pessimislic young doctor publicly
deplored the impossibility of gelling
rich, and the difficulty of earning a de-
cent living in the medical profession,
without incessaantiy burning the candle
at both ends,
"Sluff and rubbish, my ladl" a boast-
ful old doctor cried. "There's as such
money to be made new, in site LI
competition, as ever there was. rake
my case, for instance. I've lots of sa-
lients and I'm making money quick; but
do I loots overworked? Do I ever seem
pressed for time? Have I not always
plenty of leisure?"
"You certainly false life easily," the
pessimistic young doctor replied,
smoothly.
Then the company smiled,' and the
beast/se doctor fell into a twain of
thought.
