Loosen clothing, if any. 2. Empty lungs of water by laying body in its stomach, and lifting it by the middle so that the head hangs down. Jerk the body a few times. 3. pull tongue forward, using handkerchief, or pin with string, if necessary. 4. Imitate motion of respiration by alternately compressing and expanding the lower ribs, about twenty times a minute. Alternately raising and lowering the arms from the sides up above the head will stimulate the action of the lungs. Let it be done gently by persistently. 5. Apply warmth and friction to extremities. 6. By holding tongue forward, closing the nostrils, and pressing the "Adam's apple" back (so as to close entrance to stomach), direct inflation may be tried. Take a deep breath and breathe it forcibly into the mouth of a patient, compress the chest to expel the air, and repeat the operation. 7. DON'T GIVE UP! People have been saved after HOURS of patient, vigorous effort. 8. When breathing begins, get patient into a warm bed, give WARM drinks, or spirits in teaspoonfuls, fresh air, and quiet. SUNSTROKE. - There are two important indications for treatment - reduction of temperature and the use of stimulants. The patient should first be removed to a cooler spot if possible, or at least where shade can be secured. The treatment should be begun at once. The clothing about the neck and body must either be loosened or removed. Cold is particularly indicated in cases where there is great heat of the body, and delirium and convulsive movements are present. This means of reducing the temperature may be applied in the shape of cracked ice about the head and spine, or the use of cold water. If the head of the body is very great, it may be necessary to wrap the patient in sheets wet with cold water. If there is, besides great heat, evidence of serious depression, stimulants must be used while the cold is being applied. HAEMORRHAGE. - The usual treatment is rest in the recumbent position; small pieces of ice should be freely swallowed, and the application of ice wrapped in a towel or in an ice-bag, or snow, cold water, etc., over the stomach; hot applications may be applied to the extremities. FIRE IN A BUILDING. - Crawl on the floor. The clearest air is the lowest in the room. Cover head with woolen wrap, wet if possible. Cut holes for the eyes. Don't get excited. BURNS AND SCALDS. - Cover with cooking soda and lay wet cloths over it. Whites of eggs and olive oil. Olive oil or linseed oil, plain or mixed with chalk or whiting. Sweet or olive oil and lime-water. Shock, which is always present in severe burns, requires the administration of stimulants. Pain is more constant and intense in burns than in any other form of injury, and requires sedatives, which should be administered by the medical attendant. Later on the appearances of inflammation and other complications are to be carefully watched for. SUFFOCATION FROM INHALING ILLUMINATING GAS. - Get into the fresh air as soon as possible and lie down. Keep warm. Take ammonia - twenty drops to a tumbler of warm water, at frequent intervals; also, two to four drops tincture of nux vomica every hour or two for five or six hours. TESTS OF DEATH. - Hold mirror to mouth. If living, moisture will gather. Push pin into flesh. If dead, the hole will remain; if alive, it will close up. Place fingers in front of a strong light. If alive, they will appear red; if dead, black or dark. MAD DOG OR SNAKE-BITE. - Tie cord tight above wound. Suck the wound or cauterize with caustic or white-hot iron at once, or cut out adjoining parts with a sharp knife. Give stimulants, as whisky, brandy, etc. FIRE IN ONE'S CLOTHING. - Don't run - especially not downstairs or out-of-doors. Roll on carpet, or wrap in woolen rug or blanket. Keep the head down, so as not to inhale flame. FIRE FROM KEROSENE. - Don't use water, it will spread the flames. Dirt, sand, or flour is the best extinguisher, or smother with woolen rug, table-cloth, or carpet. CINDERS IN THE EYE. - Roll soft paper up like a lamp lighter, and wet the tip to remove, or use a medicine dropper to draw it out. Rub the other eye. FAINTING. - Place flat on back; allow fresh air, and sprinkle with water. Place head lower than rest of body. STINGS OF VENOMOUS INSECTS, ETC. - Apply weak ammonia, oil, salt water, or iodine.

Durham ing would norities. or the more effectual promotion ests, was unanimously adopted. This a practical endorsement of Mr. Lloyd George's policy. Mr. J. Renwick Seager, a well-known authority on parliamentary and municipal franchise, has just issued an eighth edition of his book entitled " Notes on Registration." This is a succinct elucidation of the Representation of the People's Acts of 1867 and 1884, the Registration Act 1885, the County Electors Act 1888, and the Local Government Act 1894, together with a digest of cases on appeal from 1884 to 1898. Beginning as a mere pamphlet intended for the use of Liberal committees, Mr. Seager's book has developed into a solid manual which will be of invaluable assistance to secretaries and agents of political associations. It is divided into four chapters--namely, Parliamentary Franchise, Municipal Franchise, Claims, and Objections, and is published (3s. 6d. net) by Messrs. Bemrose and Sons. 23. Old Bailey.
