TO TREAT INJURIES
INCIDENT TO DAY
Wounds Should Be Washed Thorough-
ly While Waiting for Doctor to
Come and Inject the Anti-
toxin That Can Save.
WHILE the children amass their
noisy tokens of patriotism and
wheedle their fathers into the
purchase of deadly fire spitting de-
vices, mothers set their teeth to en-
dure long hours of torture for the
safety of their little ones, writes Dr. L.
K. Hirshberg in Farm and Fireside.
Little by little the delights of the safe
and sane Fourth are being recognized,
but in the meantime, while the crack-
ers bang andt blaze, it is a comfort to
know that doctors have learned to deal
so effectually with one of the dangers
attendant upon the Fourth of July—
lockjaw—that there is no need for the
disease to result in death. Through
lack of information, more than a thou-
sand people in the United States die
from it each year, most of them far-
mers and country-bred youngsters.
The reason lockjaw is so often as-
sociated with Fourth of July accidents
lies in the fact that wounds made by
firecrackers, skyrockets and blank car-
tridges are commonly ragged and con-
tused, and so afford a favorable soil for
the germs. It is known also that
wounds where free air and oxygen can-
not enter, as is the case with those
made by rusty nails or those accompa-
nied by deep tearing and those in
which dirt has been ground into the
flesh, gunshot and powder burns, are
most likely to be followed by the dis-
ease. The first symptoms of lockjaw
usually appear from three days to
three-weeks after the injury. Home
remedies and slabs of bacon hasten it
The earlier they appear, the more se-
rious the attack.
Fortunately, it is always possible to
prevent lockjaw, provided no delay
follows the injury. The method is to
have a doctor inject antitoxin—poison
antidote—into the patient's flesh. This
kills the poisons as fast as they are
given off by the lockjaw germs, which
are a veritable mine of poisons at the
site of the sore. If treatment is de-
layed until lockjaw symptoms appeal
there is little hope of cure. It is thee
too late.
In the interval which may elapse
before a doctor can arrive it is ad-
visable to wash the wound thoroughly
with soap and water, and to flood it
before binding it up with common per
oxide of hydrogen. After this has
been done the wound should be cov-
ered, but on no account use a hand-
kerchief or an old rag, but get a strip
of antiseptic bandage. A package ol
antiseptic bandage should always be in
readiness in every household. A clean,
open wound which bleeds freely la
little likely to harbor the germs ol
lockjaw.
The light and air and oxygen strik-
ing into It kill them, and the flowing
blbod washes them out. In all such
cases, unless the flow of blojd Is ex-
cessive, it is well to make no effort
to stop It. It will cease of Itself in a
few moments.
The use of such homely remedies as
bacon and spider webs to stop the
flow is foolhardy and frequently fatal.
The average spider web, particularly if
it comes from a cellar or a stable, is
alive with germs. But no matter how
small the wound may be It is well to
have a doctor dress it. He alone is
capable of washing it as it should be
washed and of estimating the likeli-
hood of Infection. His fee is money
well Invested. It may buy only in-
surance against a long and terrible ill-
ness, but then again it may buy insur-
ance against death.
OLD AGE AND YOUTH
IN FREEDOM'S FIGHT
Signers of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence Represented All Classes
of the People and Were of
All Ages.
THE men who gathered together
early in July, 1776, to consider
the question of independence
represented many professions and
ages. Of the 56 men who constituted
all of the signers of the Declaration,
24 were lawyers, 14 agriculturists, four
physicians, one a minister, one manu-
facturer, nine merchants, and three
who had been educated for the minis-
try, but who later followed other pro-
fessions. Although at the time of
signing the Declaration the majority
' „
of the men were between forty and
sixty years of age, several were in the
early thirties, and two forty-seven.
The youngest signer was Edward Rut-
ledge of North Carolina, who was not
twenty-seven until about four
months after the signing. The other
was Thomas Lynch, Jr., who celebrat-
ed his twenty-seventh birthday three
days after the signing. Mr. Lynch
was drowned at sea before he was
thirty. On the other hand. Benjamin
franklin was seventy at the time of
signing. Equally interesting are the
ages of the men when they died.
Three lived to bo over ninety, 14 over
sixty, 11 over fifty, and the remainder,
with the exception of Lynch, lived to
be over forty-four.
