Through Telescopes.
Once upon a time, presumably,. the
, planet on which, we dwell was Yen
much larger than It is fo.day.. It was
still hot, and all the waters of what
are now the Oceans were suspended
in the atmosphere in the term of
vapors.

because its rapid' whirl cause it to

Heart Clock In Wrist. -
Is yoer sense of time good enough
for you to boil- an egg without the
use of a watch? Probably not. The
average man's idea of a minute may
be anywhere between fifteen seconds
and two hundred. But we all have a
reliable clock In our bodies, says
Peareon's Weekly. ,
The secret is simply to count your
pulse beats. Most people know how
often their pulses beat in a minute,
and it is, of course, easy to find out.
The average rate Is 72 a minute for
a man and rather more for a woman,
A healthy person, ho -Wever, may have
a pulse rate of anywhere between
sixty and eighty-four a ,mipute. So
your own rate may easily be much
faster or slower than the average.
It is the heart clOk (the pulse
merely registers the heart beats)
that enables people t6 wake up in the
morning at a time they have decided
on the night before. A little prac-
tice will make this heart clock a fair-
- ly useful alarm. That part of your
brain that is called the subconscious
mind, watches this clock all night and
wakens the working part of your
mind at the time required.
The subconscious mind is at work
day and night on jobs you never sus-
pect. If, for instance, you have been
trying to remember how a certain
tune goes, and given it up in despair,
it is the subconscious mind that takes
up the task, and works on it for days
or weeks till suddenly you find your -
Self humming or whistling the correct
air.
The secret that the sense of time
was due 'to heart throbs 'was only.
guessed when a psychologist studying
the problem discovered that people
*with unsound hearts are, as a rule,
abnormally weak in estimating the
passage of time.

breath. "The little car is crying as
If its heart would break because We
won't take it out." Papa investigated
and found that Doris -had not exag-

leaking water all over the garage
floor.
Will Want to Rest.
The conversation around the long
dinner table ended, as do most con-
versations nowadays, with the subject
of spiritualism. The guests and the
members of the family gave their
opinions as to .whether or not the
dead could communicate with. the liv-
ing, but it remained for "Sweet Six-
teen" to present the only original
thought on the subject. "It's hard
enough now I'm -me to keep up my
correspondence," she said. "When I.
die I want a rest."

THE HURON EXPOSITOR
TWO- TREATMENTS FOR
silinscap
Here is the summer, and we should'
guard ourselves against sunstrokes.
Dr. Chastaing, chief surgeon of the
Prench Navy, who had had to -deal
with many cases of sunstroke among
sailors in the tropics, Writes in the
Cadeleei (Paris) the following advice
as to treatment, of such strokes: -
If the patient is unconscious, place
him for five or six minutes in a bath
at a temperature of 100 degrees F.,
gradually raising' this to 104 Or 107
degrees if the reaction does not take
place. At the same time bathe the
head with cold water and rub vigor-
ously' with alcohol or spirits of tur-
pentine. The heat of the water re-
awakens the reflexes, the skin becomes
red and the patient gasps a few times.
Then take him out of the bath and
I, him nude- upon a bell; when he
will generally begin to perspire free-
ly, Fan' him gently, then let, him go
to sleep, 'watching him closely to see
that his pulse does not fall off as his
breathing become irrefular, in which
case begin the treatment over again.
•
•
Dr. Chastaign has used this method
on twenty serious cases and has not
failed in one. Occassionally, when
the external stimulation did not suf-
fice, he gave an: injection: jot ether or
of caffein as well.
A
Dr..W. IL Wilcox, who was with
the British expeditionary force in the
Mesopotamia campaign of 1916, 1917
and 1918, and had abundant oppor-
tunity to study sunstrokes, recom-
mends an entirely different treat-
ment. In a lecture before the Med-
ical Society of London 'he said there
were four types of illness caused by
exposure to heat: (1) heat exhaus-
tion (mild Wee); (2) -gastric; (3)
choleraic or gastro-intestinal, and (4)
sunstroke. The first type is not
dangerous except as it may lead to
one of the others. In the gastric
type removal, if possible, to a cool
atmosphere, bicarbonate of soda in
frequent full doses by the mouth and
free purgation give the best results.
The choleraic type is treated like
cholera.
sunstroke IDr. Wilcox uses sprays
of ice-cold water and fans; quinine
bihydrochloride is injected either into
muscles or veins if there be the slight-
est suspicion of malaria. Convulsions
are treated by bleeding 6r inhalations
Of morphia Or chloroform.
The onset of sunstroke is often but
by no means always quite- sudden,
marked by a quick rise in tempera-
ture and loss of consciousness. In
other cases it comes on with malaise,
headache, restlessness and sometimes
nausea. These preliminary symptoms
*-last a few hours, sometimes as long,
as forteeleight, after which mental
excitement and delirium supervene,
and the temperature rapidly rises to
about 110 degrees. Unless the tem-
perature be reduced at once --death
-comes rapidly.
