An Easy T gives me great pleasure, young ladies to aid you in preparing yourselves t meet the emergencies which you may unexpectedly encounter in these strer and complex times. and carry out the treatment required in an emergency, some knowledge of anatomy and physiology is necessary, This need not be extensive and is easily acquired. The nervous the human organism consists of two separate but con the cerebro-spinal and the system of nected parts sympathetic, The former comprises the brain and spinal cord and the nerves given off from them; the sympathetic system consists of widely diffused nerves and little centres (called ganglia), con nected with each other and with the cere bro-spinal nerves. The cerebro-spinal rves are of two kinds, sensory and motor, that is, those conveying sensations (such as pain and heat) and those carrying im The nerves of pulses which cause motion the sympathetic system are involuntary under the control of the will—and calibre of the arteries and hing and sweating are not regulate the capillaries.

One of the first principles in treating wounds is that the lips should be brought together and held in place by stitches sticking plaster, or compression. If there is no infection union will occur and healing will rapidly follow. I cannot teach the lesson, which this lecture is intended to impart, in any better than by a practical illustration, a clinical case from my note book A young man of unimpeachable char acter and pleasing personality fell violently in love.

He sought her society on every oc sion and after a time had reason to believe she returned his affection. Alas! how little does man understand woman! One evening, after a separation of almost twenty-four hours, meeting at a party she deliberately cut him. The shock was so great that at first he was stunned.

Next, pass your left arm behind and around him, placing your hand over his heart, if you can reach so far—anyway get as near to it as you can—and exert compression.

Bring the lips together and hold them securely in place If this treatment is faithfully carried out union will soon occur and the healing will be complete. and ounded Safer Hostess—I can’t quite decide who to sit you next to.
