BITES AN D STINGS
In hot weather, when people are m uch out o f doors,
w ith children playing on the grass, wounds o f a varying de­
gree o f severity are common. Spider-biteB alwoys produce
more o r less te rro r fo r m others such insects being con-
sideed p a rtic u la rly venomous. I can rem em ber when death
fro m some unknow n cause was a ttrib u te d to the sting of
a venomous spider. A il guess-work.
In these m odem times, it is very easy to obtain good
professional a tte n tio n — and it is always the wise th in g to
do. A sm all bottle of ‘‘S pirits o f A m m onia” is a good th in g
to take along on y o u r picnic; It is a good application fo r the
stin g o f any tly in g insect, such as bees, wasps, yellow jack-
ets, etc. The wound should be kept wet w ith the am m onia
solution, u n til the pain is gone.
I never advise gouging around an insect sting w ith any
sort o f household in s tru m e n t; you are as lik e ly to spread
in fe ctio n as you are to correct It. We have o r at least I
have— revised by ideaes of procedure in bites and stings o f
Insects, and I believe 1 have no regrets w ith the change.
It doesn't do any harm to h a th t an Insect wound w ith
soap and w ater, especially if the site be dusty or on a per­
sp irin g surface. And then— If you are fo rtu n a te to have
the KIN G OF EMERGENCY REM EDIES w ith you a b o t­
tle o f T in c tu re o f IODINE. It is a good application in all
cases, regardless o f th e ir origin. Your d o cto r w ill te ll you

Do you rem em ber when the “ fa m ily alm anac” sagely
advised th a t we rem ove bee stings by pressing the wound
w ith a w atch-key? The c ru d ity —the h o rro r o f It! Watches
