HOW TO STOP ULEKDIXi Tiio oldest book the world made Uiis statement three thousand joara before Harvey discovered the circulation ot the blood: "For uie life ot the fles'u is in the blood'" That is a scientific fact and still holds true. Then, too, there is iiut about twelve pounds, troy weight, of blood a matured body, and conse quently no oue can afford to lose very much, for if they do, one of two things will occur, either they will die, or, if kept alive, it will take a long time to recover strength lost from the excessive blood letting. 1 Nature has done a very wonder ful thing in regard to the arteries. She hus placed them nevt to the bones so that all vou have to do is to Arterial blood comes out in spurts or jerks, in keeping with the heart and it is bright crimson, while ven-1 oils blood flows evenly and is dark red. If one is wounded close to the windpipe and high in the neck, press with finger below and alongside of windpipe against the spine, and there you check the carotid artery. If the wound is on the side of the neck and hlood is flowing fast, it i. the jugular vein which is cut. Press with finger above the wound and you will check the bleeding. Roth of these wounds may come from an auto accident where one is thrown the broken windshield. If the arm is torn out from the socket, or is crushed, or severed high in the arm. press on the subclavion artery, which crosses the first rib. alnmst at the base of the neck behind the collar bone. If the wound is below the .should er, press on the brachial artery on inside of arm, against bone, or if the wound is in the hand or wrist, put a medium sized pad or tightly folded paper in bend of arm and flex limb and tie it so. Or make a tourniquet and put on brachial ar tery (as above), fold something hard, as penknife, smooth stone or piece of wood, in a handerchief, tie somewhat loose over center of arm, put. a pad to protect arm under knot and take a pencil or piece of short stick and twist handerchief on out side of limb and hold or tie tight. jirill .compress artery and pre vent further loss of blood. For low er limb, the, femoral artery is or the inside of thigh, about where the seam of a man's 'breeches run, and at upper third of thigh where there seems to be a hollow spot. A tourni quet may be placed there made as above, though the hard object should be quite prominent, as a large cork or if the wound is be low knee, flex the leg with large pad in bend of knee. riM MANY INDIAN KBlJtlH University RxPlorera at Work North End of State in Mr. William H. Over, Assistant Curator of the State Museum at the University of South Dakota, has just returned to Vermillion from bis summer's work in unearthing relics of ancient Indian tribes and In col lecting plants, birds, and animals for the museum. Accompanying Mr. Over was Thomas P. Solem, of Oarretson, who assisted in the work, and .'Mrs. Over who looked after the commiBsary de partment. A month was spent in the Cave Hill eountry along tho Missouri river at Mobridge. In Harding county Mr. Over and Mr. Solem explored and excavated the famous Ludlow cave, near Lud low. This cave was the favorite resort of Indians in very early times and the relics found in it indicate that it was used by the Mandans, who came up the Missiouri River and settled at Mandan, North Dako ta tirst, in the Thirteenth or Four teenth century. Later the Sioux, who came to South Dakota about 1750, used it. The Indians built fires in the center of the main part of the cave and moBt of the relics were found in the sand on both sides of the fire places but practically none in the center. Ludlow Cave was formed by a con vulsion in pre-historic times of the sandstone structure of that vicinity and is about 300 feet in extreme depth. It to about the sized of an ordinary room at the opening and then narows both in width and height for about 100 feet, when it again narrows to a small crevice on ly two feet in height, for the last seventy-five feet. The mouth of the cave is now partially blocked by hugh pieces of sandstone which have fallen. Inscriptions and pictures adorned the wall but they have been largely obliterated by falling stone and by visitors who carvel their names over them. Mr. Over and Mr. Solem obtained photographs and made drawings of what were left. The picture made by the Indians were of imaginary animals but well defined drawings of buffalo tracks were found on the sandstone wall across a gulch about 200 yards from the cave. On tha wall at the first narrowing of the cave a profile of a face bad been drawn at each side. Mr. Over sawed away the rock con taining one of these and it will be preserved in the museum. The method of finding the relies •in the sand was thorough and pains taking. A M!roen was used and about sixty yards of the floor of the cave gone ovor in this laborious manner. It was well worth the ef fort, however, for the dry sand had perfectly preserved everything in it and all the specimens found were in the very best of condition. A scalp look of a white man was found witu the leather thong by which it was tied to the trophy pole still attached, Arrowheads were found with the strings still on them for fastening to the arrows. Over 300 of the line-a I arrow points were found, made of agatized. petrified wood and chalce dony. Resides these were beads, elk teeth, ceremonial pieces, and fragments of pottery similar to those made by the Mandans. One of the strange incidents of I the visit to this region was the fact that on the day of the earthquake I in California a hugh rock on he sandstone wall opposite the cave I settled four feet, while Mr. Over was looking on. He. of course.knew pre.-.s ihem against the bone in case, ... .. ,, the wound is severe, as in a crushed I nothing of the earthquake in Cal. or severed limb, or where one is cut £r!1,a_?t.th? t«m« but_rogarded the through a bad wound. Ilut, remem ber, if an artery is severed you al- During ways press between the wound and the heart, since, arterial flowing from the heart. vein, which is cut, you press on the opposite side of the wound from the heart, as venous blood is flowing to the heart. llu.t possibly you ask. "How does one know which is which?" incident as most remarkable. the intervals in the exca vation of Ludlow Cave a large num- blood is ber of specimens of plants, a few If it is a birds, and the skins of some small animals were obtained. The next month was spent in in vestigating the Indian villages in the vicinitty of Mobridge. Five of them, built by the Arikara Indians, who were driven out by the Sioux short ly before the advent of the white man, were previously known. Mr. Over discovered four more, making nine in all, but one of them is un douhtedly Mandan. In this vicinity eight skeletons were found and six-j ty-Hve skulls. These additions alone make the. museum of the State Uni versity the richest in ethnological material in the Northwest. Many other relics were discovered here, including three clay pots, flint implements, beads, arrow and spear points, bone awls and knife handles, and the like. While in this neighborhood Mr. Over visited Haunted Butte, about three miles from Mahto, Corson county. Here he discovered buffalo tracks carved on the sand rock,quite similar to those cut in the rock near Ludlow. Evidently they had been made by the same Indians or by the same tribe. ^Altogether, the summer's work resulted in the obtaining of a great deal of valuable data on the early Indians of this section .and in the acquisition of priceless relics for ttfe museum. mmM in place of electric Hghts would you?
