I What to Do
Before the
I Doctor Comes
in order lo facilitate our moving
about anil performing our various du
ties, the body has been supplied with
numerous movable joints. These are
primarily of two kinds, hinge joints,
which allow motion only backward
and forward in one place, as at the
knee; ami ball and socket joints
which allow motion, to a certain ex
tent. In all directions, as at the shoul
der. The movements of the joints are
accomplished by the action Of the
various muscles that stretch across !
them and are fastened at a greater or
less distance on each side. Some
muscles run across two or more
Joints, and so in a measure assist in
controlling the movement in each of
them.
The most common injury to a joint
is a sprain. It is usually caused by a
sudden twist or wrench of one of the
bones that goes to make up the joint.
It may, however, be produced by slow
over-bending (extension or flexion) of
the joint as when a person is trying to
bend backward as far as be can or
take some unusual position.
The degree of the injury done is
variable and depends uium the kind of
sprain, the direction of the force ap
plied, and what joint is affected. The
effect may be only slight so that the
pain subsides in a short time, or it
may be that enough damage has been
done so that a dislocation :t the joint
occurs, a dislocation being merely a
revere sprain that has torn enough
ligaments and siiuctures around the
joint to allow one of the bones to
t-lip out of its plaee.
Sprains are more frequent in young
and middle-aged adults. The most
common locations are at the ankle
and wrist joints.
Severe sprains, ir not treated prop
erly, are liable to cause a permanent
limitation of motion (ankylosis) in the
joint, or disability for a long period
of time. It very often happens that
a partial dislocation or a fracture of
the end of one of the bones occurs at
the same time as the sprain, so that
all sever sprains and minor ones that
do not improve promptly should be
seen by a physician.
l'ain is always produced by a
sprain: it is usually very severe, often
causing the patient to faint. Some
times movement of the joint is pos
sible In mine direction in which it
was !.! possible before the accident.
Dislocations
Dislocations are severe sprains that
have stretched and torn the ligaments
and tissues around the joint to such
an extent as to allow the end of the
bones to become misplaced. Some dis
locations are known as congenital,
that Is. they have existed since birth
ami are ue to some malformation of
some part of the joint.
The symptoms of a dislocation are
(1) pain, which is usually dull, but
may be acute on attempting to mow
the joint; C-) more or less deformity,
depending upon the degree of the dis
location; CI) swelling, due to the es-
cape of blood and serum from the j
ruptured blood vessels; (1) a certain
amount of disability; (f) limitation of
motion.
If the dislocation Is not reduced (re
placed) within a few days, there is
danger of the bones becoming fined
in their unnatural positions.
In simple dislocations it is permis- '
Kible for the person giving the first
iid to attempt to reduce it by pulling
on the bone, at some distance from the
part dislocated, and at the same time !
attempting to push the end dislocated
back into place. This should only be
tried two or three times, and If not
successful, the patient should be seen
by a doctor.
Injuries From a Fall.
In injuries from a fall or other ac
cident, where there is a possibility of
one of the vertebra being dislocated,
the patient should be moved very care
fully. If necessary to turn the pa
tient over, be sure to turn the hips
and shoulders and head at the same
time and very slowly. This is very
important, because if a dislocation ex
ists, the spinal cord, which runs
through the vertebra, is always pinch
ed to a certain extent and any addi
tional pressure upon it by the twisting
of the vertebra may destroy it alto
gether at that point and cause per-
manent paralysis of the body below ,
that level, or if high up in the spine, it
may cause immediate death. The pa- (
tient should not be picked up by the !
shoulders and legs and carried or
movi d at all until his head and shoul
d rs and hips arc firmly fastened to a
long board or shutter so that there is
no possibility of the spine being twist
id while he is being moved.
The Shoulder Joint.
Dislocations at the shoulder joint j
are quite frequent. The head of the j
London Goes
Yuitrary to an opinion commonly
held hi New York. London does not
obtain relief from the effects of the
early-closing laws by forming supper
i tubs. There were such clubs fifteen
years ago. but nowadays there are no
upper clubs in London where the
.hirsty can with slight formality of
initiation get drinks after 12.30 a. m..
-when all restaurants and saloons are
closed ordinarily, the closing hour on
Saturday nicht being midnight and on
Sunday night eleven o'clock.
The police long ago made the life
or supper clubs impossible and there
is not one now in existence in Lon
don, says the New York Sun's Lon
den correspondent The average Lon
doner when his restaurant and "pub"
closes must go home or to his club,
and Ixmdon clubs with a single ex
ception are closed at two a. m. One
club keeps open until fourx a. m. Fake
clubs cannot exist nowadays.
The police permit two clubs in the
vicinity of Leicester square, the heart
of London's tenderloin, to keep open
all night. One cf them is patronized
Sprains
By DR. W. H. BAILEY
of the Kansas University Medical
School at Rosedale
At times the whole joint may appear
loose and relaxed. In a very short,
lime swelling takes pTacc and then the
pain which may have been lessened
for a time, returns. Movement of the
joint now may be greatly lessened or
prevented altogether. It is very de
sirable that the physician see the
sprain before the swelling becomes
too marked, because when it is pres
ent, it is next to impossible to tell
whether or not a partial dislocation or
a fracture also exists.
In treating a sprain we want to
limit the degree of swelling as much
as possible. This will tend to lessen
the pain and the time of disability on
account of the sprain. In slight sprains
the part may be bandaged tightly or
strapped with adhesive plaster (which
is usually kept at all drug stores and
is a handy thing to keep in the house
hold), and the patient allowed to use
the part the same as before.
Severe sprains should be put ?t rest
for 2i to ?,G hours and the part kept
elevated so as to lessen the amount of
blood to the part. Soaking the part
in cold water while It is gently rubbed
is usually the most effective way of
reducing the swelling. Sometimes
very hot water is more comfortable
and often acts as efficiently as cold.
The part should then be bandaged
tightly as the pressure in a measure
prevents swelling. Care must be ex
ercised here not to get the bandage?
too tight. The injured part should be
watched closely so that the swelling
does not make the bandages loo tight
Quite serious harm can be done by
too much pressure being applied.
After the acute pain has subsided and
the swelling has ceased getting great
er, usually about the beginning of the
second 24 hours, gentle massage and
passive movements (working and
moving the joint with the hands)
should be begun and the force used
should be gradually increased. After
a few days the part may be strapped
with adhesive plaster or bandaged and
used a little as normally. Although
severe sprains should be put at rest
for a day or two. it is not advisable
to put them up in splints or plastei
of ;:jris casts or delay the massage
and movement too long, as there it

upper bone of the arm (humerous)
may be either below, in front of, or
behind its normal position. Sometimes
it goes back into place verj- easily,
and so it is a good plan to attempt to
reduce it two or three times at least.
This should be done by having the pa
tient lie down on his back and fixing
the shoulder so that it is fairly sta
tionary, as having some one to hold
it. and pulling down on the arm. The
pull should be steady and considerable
force used, but it must not be jerked
by a sudden pull. Sometimes the
person giving the first aid can get a
better pull and also assist in pushing
the head of the bone into place by re
moving one of his shoes and placing
his heel under the injured shoulder
and pulling while bracing himself in
this way. Care must be takon not to
push up under the arm too forcibly.
us there is considerable danger of in-
juring the blood vessels and nerves
that pass along under the shoulder.
The Elbow.
The elbow is quite frequently dislo-
cated as the result of a fall or twist.
The usual kind is to have the bones of I
the forearm dislocated backward; but
they may go to either side or both
backward and to one side. This dislo
cation is usually rather difiicult to re-di:-e
and a physician should be seen.
Dislocation of the Hip.
The hips are not very frequentl
thrown out of joint and are with diffi
culty put back into place. It may be
attempted by fixing the hips as solid
ly as possible and pulling down on
the leg. at the same time having an
assistant try to push the head of the
bone towards its normal position. The
muscles around the hip joint are so
powerful that it is often necessary to
give a general anesthetic in order to
relax the spasm of the muscles which
accompanies every dislocation.
The Knee.
Dislocations at the knee joint may
take place in any direction. The at
tempt should be made to reduce them
by the same general methods as In
dislocations of the hip. but this usual
ly is rather difficult to accomplish.
The Ankle.
Dislocations of the ankle are In
clincd to be somewhat complicated
and usually it is better to have the
patient see a physician at once rather
than first attempt to reduce it without
his aid.

Both clubs are unattractive places
and women are rigorously excluded
after midnight.
Efforts to conduct even sem44tohe
mian supper clubs fail. One started
recently in a popular west end the
cughfare didn't last a year. Thert
were not enough thirsty and hungry
souls abroad after midnight to meet
expenses.
The fact is that Londoners have
become so used to the restrictions of
the excise law that they have formed
the habit of going to bed early. The
reputable clubs, too, are deserted at
midnight, and there are only two good
clubs in London where .the bar re
ceipts between midnight and two
a. m., their closing hour, are sufficient
to pay for the electric light consumed.

Uncle Sam Is Loser
WASHINGTON. One of the mighty

way of helping itself. It became a
victim through the carelessness of its
own officers, and the victimization,
too. was not criminal in its nature.
Prior to 1879 the late Samuel J.
Little of Georgetown owned four cer
tificates of C per cent, stock or the
old corporation of Georgetown. Upon
his death he left a life interest in the
stock to his sister, Mrs. Eliza A.
Ricketts, and the residue to his minor
children. J. C. Little and Julia A.

before the probate court the actual
possession of the four certificates of
stock was passed to Mrs. Ricketts. so

Hall of Fame Statuary Not Artistic
THERK is a determined effort being
made in Washington to have old
Representative hall In the capltol
cleaned out. This is the room now
known as the Hall of Horrors to those
who have seen the statuary in it, but
which is aristocratically titled the
Hall of Fame.
This hall is almost circular. It
has a tiled floor, many pillars and a
low gallery all across one end. It is
also known as the "whispering hall,"
for the reason that standing on cer
tain blocks of the tiling your voice
comes to you from the floor on other
blocks, over your shoulder into your
ear on other blocks, from the winged
victory clock that faces you, and
there are many other blocks which
give forth strange echoes when you
stand upon them. No one has ever
been able to tell why these echoes are
or why other tiles give forth nothing
at all. They just do it; that is all
there is of it.

Postal Thieves Comparatively Few
J100
THE Postoflicc Department dally re
ceives hundreds of complaints
caused by the losses of packages and
money. Mails are easy to rob. but few
postal thieves ever escape final de
tection; they are sure to be entrapped
and punished in the end. While speak
ing of these numerous complaints, an
old detective, called Inspector, of the
Postoflicc Department said: "No
thief is harder to catch than the one
who robs Uncle Sam's maiL The
methods of such thieves are ingenious,
the plunder is easily hidden or de
stroyed, and their rascality is well
masked by the honesty and integrity
of associates.
"Postofflce thieves are not arrested
jvery day, although valuable letters
and other articles are stolen almost
daily and an army of shrewd Inspec
tors are" on the alert. Positive proof
Df guilt must be in the possession of
the Inspector before an arrest is made.

the certificates for redemption. Mr.
Ricketts took the four certificates to
the treasurer's office, indorsed "I here
by assign the within certificates to
the treasurer of the United States for
redemption, on account of Eliza A.
Ricketts."
The treasurer refused redemption
upon this indorsement. Mrs. Ricketts
then asked the first auditor of the
treasury', as he was known In those
days, to approve the indorsement, but
I he refused. She appealed to the of-
nce or tne men nrst controller ui iuc
treasury and obtained the desired ap
proval. Accordingly the treasurer paid Mrs.
Ricketts 14.012 principal and $9.23 in
terest. In 1S94 Julia A. Burncll. formerly
Julia A. Little, the daughter of Sam
uel J. Little, made claim for the $4,
021.23. alleging that it had been er
roneously paid to Mrs. Ricketts. who
had a life Interest only. The claim
was disallowed by the treasury. Mrs.
llurnell and her husband then entered
suit for the amount before the court
of claims. A year ago they obtained
judgment for the amount, and in the
deficiency act of June 25. 1910, ap
propriation was made to pay this
claim, along with others.
Mrs. Burnell has been fighting for
sixteen years to secure the money

slightest resemblance to that dainty,

of Phil Kearny in bronze, which is

was the first government cook book
ever printed.
This was not altogether so. It is
true that it was the nearest approach
to a real cook book, but the depart
ment has printed all sorts of receipts.
The social science series has been
running for more than a decade, and
has, incidentally, taken in various do
mestic problems in the food line un
der the head of "Nutrition Investiga

on the composition and cooking of
meats, issued nearly 14 ycara ago. Of
this there has been something over
half a million copies distributed.
But the most popular of all the bul
letins was the recent one on "The
Economical Use of Meat In the
Home." This has been out only a few
months, and there have already been
distributed 1,200,000. Calls are still
coming in rapidly.
The series comprises books on all
sorts of subjects the preserving of

food, the cooking of vegetables, ani
