Diagnosis of Alcoholic Coma.

By firm pressure upon the supre-orbtial notches, compress-ing the nerves, a diagnosis of alcoholism may with absolute certainty be made in a few seconds. A case of alcoholism pure and simple will, upon the application of this pressure, immediately show very evident signs of life, and, be the coma ever so deep, the effect of the alcohol will for a short time be sufficiently removed to permit of a rapid and thorough ex-amination. The absence of result from this pressure is a sure indication of cerebral trouble due to head injury, or dis-ease, or of narcotic poisoning.-Clinical Memoranda, Brand & Keith.

Weather Temp.

Girls & Evelin went to church. Diden't go to Sunday School, as the other girls was taking their turns. Lewis & Bell was here for dinner. Girls drove the buggy.

The Neurotic Patient

almost always presents a deficiency of the vital elements of the blood, i.e., the essential erythrocytes and their con-tained hemoglobin. Pepto-Mangan (Gude) overcomes the blood poverty that is so often responsible for neurasthenic conditions, by supplying the immediately available ferric and manganic elements necessary to true hemic recon-struction.

Weather Temp.

Snowed all the fournoon good wheeling, but true drives the sleighs. I washed but hung my clothes on the verandah. John bred three boast holes, said that the ground was but very little frozen. John was to Mr Doses this afternoon. Mr Gop was over this evening.
