While man has been defined as a gregarious animal, Americans seem to have the flocking habit more strongly developed than any other people.

Place patient flat on back and loosen the clothing, Give plenty of breath- ing room. Camphor, ammonia, or smelling salts, may be held under the nose for a few seconds at a time, and tne patient exposed to cool air. Cold %vatcr may also be dashed into the ace. For Nose Bleed—Roll a piece of soft { paper hard and place between the upper lip and gums and in a few minutes the bleeding generally stops. For Hoarseness—Beat the white of an egg, add the juice of a lemon and swecten with white sugar, take a tea- spoonful at a time. In case of fire; wet a silk handkerchief and tie over the face. It will prevent suffocation from smoke, permit free breathing and exclude smoke from the lungs. . Dislocations—The reduction of a cislocation calls for no immediate haste, and far less injuby is inflicted if the patient is allowed to await the arrival of a. physician who can per- form the necessary manipulations after administering an anesthetic. Cold wet cloths may be applied, while bathing to relieve pain. Hiccough—Have -the patient draw 2 deep breath and hold it as long as possible. In severe attacks, apply mustard plasters, hot vinegar, brandy or whiskey over the stomach. Foreign Bodies in the Throat—If possible to remove with the fingers, a pair of blunt pointed scissors may be used in place of forceps: a hairpin, straightened out and with ‘one end bent in the shape of a loop may also be used in withdrawing the obstruc- tion, A piece of candgy stuck in the throat may be dissolved by sipping hot water. Buttons, coins, or marbles, laodged in children’s throats can some- times be displaced by inducing vomit- ing. If such articles are completely swallowed, do not give a purgative, but let the bowels alone for a- day or two and give plenty of good solid food so that the foreign body may pass off without injuring the intes. tines, For 'Internal Poison—Induce vom- iting tickle the throat on the inside with finger; give an emetic; such as oonful of mustard in a cup of water, following this dose with copious draughis of water so as to empty ths stomach as quickly as possible; also give whites of eggs.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Folks—I haven't flown but am still at the ¢ld post with pen in hand, to write “cheer up!” to thoge in sorrow, sickness or trouble. 1 sympathize with the unfortunate. May a day =oon arrive to fill each sad heart with joy. “Look up—not down!™ For the invalid and the convalees- cent eggs and milk furnish much nu- triment and are easily digested. Raw eggs and milk may be stirred or shaken up and flavored and they malke a fine drink., For invalids it may be flavored with nutmeg or orange rind and be sweetened. Shave wnsweetened chocolate into 2 dish, rub smooth in hot water, add sugar instead of egg, add a table- spoon of sherry wine—this added to a glass of milk makes a stimulating drinx for an invalid. A raw egg may be taken with olive oil and grape juice. Put in glass first the grape juice, then the egg and the ofl—stir and swallow, and the ezg or_the oil will not be tasted. Milk should not be drunk very cold, or be swallowed 1in haste. Good creamy milk should be taken like soup to be beneficial. The white of an egg beaten to a froth, with a little sugar and lemon juice added, always proves soothing for a sore throat or good for a cough. It has been interesting to read all the good and helpful letters in The Corner. Some members are missied.

Still I would gladly face unpleasantness and an- noyvances if I could be about and mingle with others, and all who are shut in would say the same, All of you, who can, enjoy Hfe while you can, and everyone of us, who like yself, have to look between the rifts in the clouds for rays of sun- shine, wateh closely lest we lose some of them.

Dear Editor and Cornerites: I have taken pen in hand many times and laid it down, lacking courage to write, but I like to read the letters which the Sisters write and maybe they think mine not far-fetched. Dottie: Your use of sweet fern leaves for poison I was glad to know about, and will add that they are a cure for dysentery in its worst forms. Steep the leaves, strain them when strong and take one third of a tum- bler every hour orftwo until relief comes. As this is the time of year when such disease are liable to at- tack a person, I think it nice to know of a'remedy that has been tried and proven efficient. Maine Lover: Yes, I am very re I would want to clip around any corner. Walking is preferable; though when it means miles—why then we must run the risk I suppose. To A Crank: I wish to-say I tried going without breakfast—by advice of a friend. Now this worked very well for the friend as she did not arise until about nine, but with one who was obll{ed to _get up at an early hour as did. I found.at noon my stomach was in no fit condition to take food. I do think, however, people are apt to eat things which they know are injurious for them, and will not deny themseives of anything their palate may desire. So sorry I was not able to be pres- ent at Aunt Abby’s. I intended to come, but old Sol did not show his face early enough for one to get to the train. TROTTIE. SWEET CORN FRITTERS. Social Corner Editor and Sisters: Some little wrinkles [ noticed. as I was finjshing up Some sewing, may help some one: A band at bottom of Balken blouse-double; holds both pieces together even; remove your uttle from machine and thread from put under presser foot, and stitch with just the needle; sew one part on ent, and turn under the | other part at needle holes to hem down: and both sides will be alike.
