SOLUTION TO YESTERDAY'S PUZZLE. Bixteen-card puzzle: J-d UNCLE RAY’S COR There's a little trouble called nose- bleed, and I should like to add a story about it in our first-aid series. Often s nosebleed is caused by a bump.on the nose, but there are times when it seems to start “by tself.” Whatever the cause, there are ways to stop it in a few minutes in almost every case. Themain thing to do is to cut off thesupply of blood + to the nose for a few minutes. » Let the patient lean his head back a little. Let his collar be loose, .80 there is no pressure about his neck. Place a cold, wet cloth over his nose. As a rule, a person should not breathe through his mouth. This rule does not hold when he hs a nose bleed. In that case the nose my be given a rest from breathing. ‘While the patient breathes through 12. Depression. | 15. Long-necked |28. | 18.

This name is frequently mispro- nounced “SAL-mun” or “SAH- mun.” The “L” should be silent. The first syllable is exactly like the name Sam. Correct pronunciation: SAM-un. Sting ray: A ray with a whip-like tail. “Sting-er-ee” is a commonly heard corruption. The name should be pronounced precisely as it 1s spel- led, with the accent on ray. Correct pronunciation: sting RAY. Anchovy: A smil herring-like fish. Most speakers wrongly accent the first syllable, as “AN-cho-vy.” The accent should be placed on the sec- ond syllable, which rhymes with toe. . Correct pronunciation: an-CHOE-vee. (Capitals indicate syllables to be) accented.) 3 e Question: Is “what the dickens” from the name Charles Dickens? . D. G S. Answer: There is no connection at all. Shakespeare used the express- fon €00 Pears before Dickens was born. In “The Merwy Wives of NER ° pressed together tightly with the fingers. This will close little tubes which supply blord to the “parti- tion” inside the rose. If the nose is held closed for four or fiYe minutes, it ysually will end the bleeding. The result is brought about by allowing a clot to form at the spot from which the bleeding has been coming. TRat plan is given in the “First Ald Text-book” issued by the Red Croes. Another plan has been found to work in many cases. A wad of paper is placed behind the upper lip, in front of the gums #nd just under the nose. If the upper lip is pressed tightly agaiust the wad of paper, the flow of blood to the nose partition will be halted, or at least will be made less. When 2 bleeding =tops, care en not to bidw the nose should be for threeqor fotr hgurs, To do so his mouth, his nostrils should be would be likely to break the blood Sed el e i i Lt e e Boys and Girls, Read the Juni'or Star Every Sunday .
