FRANK L HOYLE. Administrator of Ida Hopper. Deceased. 6t Jan 12c Gas Poisoning Common in Winter __ | Proper Ventilation h a \ec~ etsary Precaution These Shut-In Days, Warns Dr. Copeland. By R. S. COPELAND, M. D. U. S. Senator from New York Former Commissioner of Health, Mew fork City , GAS poisoning is not un common. Wo read of it daily in the papers. The city hospital* are always caring for cases of this sort. | A great deal was l.earned concerning ga poisoning dur ing the World War. With tho added popu larity of the a u t o rn obi I e more victims of gas poisoning are coming to our attention. “Carbon monoxide,” the p o i sonous in gredient oi DP COPELAND ! most gas, is tne element uai produces the marked and danger- . ous symptoms. As a matter of fact, carbon monoxide is one of the most deadly of the gas poisons. This particular gas combines with the blood, producing a chemical re action of great damage to the body. Carbon monoxide produces more deaths than any other poison known. It is present in Illuminating gas. It is liberated by incomplete combus tion of the gasoline In the automo bile. It is found In coal mines, W. natural gas and n furnace gas. j Since the damaging effect of this gas Is very rapid, great attention must be paid to the prevention of undue exposure to It Never run vour automobile motor In a closed garage. If you are tuning up your motor, or tinkering with the car with the motor running, make sure the doors and windows are wide open. This is most Imperative. I cannot be too emphatic in regard to this precaution. All leaks in ga» pipes should be re paired. Burning of gas Jets at night ta dangerous. Occasionally the gas pressure varies, and more gas may escape than is burning. Winds and draughta will blow out a small gas flame, but. of course, does not turn off the gas Many cases of gas poi soning occur in this way. '. i Proper ventilation must be main tained at all times. This is par ticularly true In homes that are heated by hot-air furnaces. The chief signs of poisoning by' gaa are dizziness headache, noises in the egfs. throbbing at the temples. Nausea and vomiting usually precede i .sleepy feeling which soon comes on. The services of a doctor aro ex tremely necessary for the care of one who has been gassed. While waiting for the doctor see that tha patient receives plenty of fresh air. He should be kept warm and. if necessary, artificial respiration muBt be applied. If this Is not needed, and his breathing is normal, keep him quiet. Most people are under the impres sion that walking will stimulate the heart and lunga. In this type of gas poisoning it is best that there be no strain placed upon the heart. The patient should be kept In bed, warmth applied and stimulants given If necessary. Hot coffee may be given liberally. In a more serious rase of gw* poi •ohtng it la only by the use of the pulmctor that resuscitation can be accomplished These machines are now found in all hospitals, police quarters and In municipal centers.

Visiting Ruins Of Volcanos; Barely Missing An Earthquake And Visit To The Pope In Rome (Another of a series of. articles written especially tor The Star by Miss Kathleen Hord on. "My Trip Abroad.’’) From Rome we had a lovely ride to Naples which is about 100 miles away. Our hotel was situated on the famous Bay . f Naples, along with many', many more. We had a room with balcony (almost every hotel in southern Europe has a balcony to each room) and the first thing Nancy and I did was to go out > n it and see far and wide; in the dis tance across the Aguamarine bay was Vesuvius,, the famous volcano, which, two days later erupted, and caused the death of many thousands of people in the nearby towns that it towers above. Its base is a circuit of 30 miles, its height is 4,260 feet above sea level, its crater is 350 feet in depth, which is like a terrible kettle that is filled with lava or hot melted rocks, which are thrown from the volcano in an eruption. The manager at our hotel said we could take tiie trip up to the top for $5—that was one reason for our not going and another was, it would completely ruin a pair of shoes, lie said it was impossible to walk In them. We had a lot more sight-see ing to do, so we saved out shoes, and inavbe out lives. Visit to Volcano Rivers. Early next morning we got into a bus and began a day’s ride to the famous city, Pompeii, which, in 79 A, D., was completely destroyed by the horrtble \olcano. It remained a dead city unt.l 1592 when Fontana, in cutting an aqueduct, came on some ancient buildings. These un systematic excavations continued until 1860 when the Italian king dom took in hand the unearthing of the city. This was carried out with success and it attracts every per son of every' clime on account of its picturesquensss and its uniqueness. Tire houses are built of concrete or brick, and also of stone blocks. We saw two and three-storied hom?s. though the upper floors, built of wood, were consumed in the earth quake. In some of the homes of the richer inhabitants, the bath tubs were still preserved, they were long and deep, but very narrow, and made of concrete. We saw the house of Glaucus, the hero of “The Last Days of Pompeii,” by Sir Ed ward Bulwer Lytton. If you hare never read this book, do so, for it is certainly worth your reading. I read it in high school, but since I have seen the place about which it is so beautifully writeen, I have read it again. In the museum at Pompeii we saw men, women, chil dren, dogs, etc,, their skeletons. I mean, who had been in the disaster and who were in the same position as they were when they were burn ed to death. We saw knives, spoons, plates and even an egg tat wasn’t broken: it didn’t look like an egg except in shape. I found this brief description: ‘Day was turned into night, and light into darkness; an inexpressible quantity of dust and ashes was poured out. deluging land, sea and air. and burying two entire cities, Herculaneum and Pompeii, while the people were Sit ting in the theater.” On Oanitrous Cliffs. We left Pompeii to take the beau tiful Amaefl drive to Sorrento. The drive was a lively one if you would not look down, but keep the eyes straight in front of you. There are no railings like there arc on out mountain roads, but Just the road, i the high mountains and then that [ feeling when you look down! Many times our bus driver had to back the bus, turn, twist it and all kinds of things so be could get around a curve. They aren't curves to me, In stead they looked like different roads we were going into, because they were so—all of a sudden!!; and It was almost a breath-taker. And on those large buses the.e seemed like there were at least six gear-shifts—it takes horsepower. Tiie roads aren’t paved either, but white sandy ones, and when we got t oAmalfl for lunch we looked, I imagine, like we’d been in a desert I storm. oareir escape r.armqua kc We had lunch in a beautiful hotel overlooking the Bay of Salemn j Several days later we read in the papers that this hotel was destroy ed by the earthquake. Weren't we lucky? After lunch we left for Cor rento, where we were to spend two nights and days. It was a hot sun shiny afternoon, and we were all tired when we got to Sorrento. Our hotel was located on the Mediter ranean sea. and from our balconies we could see Vesuvius, with Its smoke boiling out Incessantly, sometimes it was white, again very black. Once ’ate that afternoon one of the bell boys told us to look quickly, for the smoke was red as if it were on fire and just looked as If something was going to happen then. 1 asked him when did he think there would be an eruption and he just said casually: “Oh prob ably in a day or so." Of course it was only an assumption, but three days later something did happen. Elevator to Beach. I Here we stayed an the beach to get a good tan, and got a worse blis tering. To gat down to the beach, we got on an elevator and down we went for 200 feet, walked through a short passage and there we were rlght on the water. It was a delight-' ful two days and Sorrento would be a grand place for a nice, quiet vaca tion—if Vesuvius would behave. It Is a fine place for shopping, espec ially inlaid, boxes, shawls, beads, coral and amber. All along the streets men and women are seen with their arms loaded with them. The morning we left there was a man at our hotel selling them, he had a string of black and blue ones and I asked the price "95 lire” he said (which is approximately $5 in American money) I told him it was tod much, he said they came from the crater of the volcano be side Vesumius, which Is only a mountain now for it hasn't been ac tive in years. He and I argued,and I walked away slowly, thinking he would call me back. I told him all I had was me American dollar (they are accepted anywhere in Eu rope) sure enough, he called me ■and said: "Take them, lady.” If I'm not mistaken, I thtnk that was a good bargain; they were worth it, I believe. Into Beautiful Cavern*. I think this same day should be called our “In and out of boat day". We wait, down the lift got Into a small boat, rml had about tin minutes' rid to the pier: here we got, into a large sight-seeing boat "The Capri’’ and staved on It until we got to the island of Capri. Thru when we came to the rock, which, Inside Is one of the seem wonders ot the world, wc got. into a \ cry small canoe, just room enough for three and the oarsman. When we got to the entrance we had to He down flat In the canoe, for the horse shoe-ttke door is just about, three [feet high; alter being Inside and almost holding our breath at the beautiful Blue Grotto, the oarsman began to sing “O, Sol mlo and Santa Lucia’’—It is a natural cav ern, about 25 feet In height and thr bluest of blue water is 60 feet deep and we in that, tiny canoe!! We stayed In there about 15 minute:, and before coming out, the oarsman cut each of us a piece of coral for a souvenir. Just Missing Earthquake. Back on the big boat, and to Capri for luQch. Capri is an island in the Mediterranean Sea; it Is cov ered with the remains of antiquity including the ruins of the vtlla of Tiberius, the Roman emperor. After lunch \re again got on another boat which took us back to Naples 20 miles away The boat was 15 minutes late and there were 26 us to get a train for Rome—we were all excited because our guide, Mr. Brown. I old -us it was the last train that left Naples that night for .Rome. At 5:15 we ran off the boat hopped into taxis and almost ties, through the city (all that time Ve suvius was ge#ing ready to throw Its hot lava everywhere) tire train had been held for us, because we al ready had tickets and the conductor knew we were coming; we jumped on and off again to Rome, Just missing the horrible earthquake four hours. How News Travels. Next morning when we went to breakfast, the head waiter said: "There was a slight earthquake at Naples and Amaifi last night, but it just killed eight people. We all thanked our lucky stars we weren't among the eight, and stopped talking about it. To cable home did not enter my mind, none of us thought of it, at first. At lunch one of the girls got a cable wantin ? to knowr if she was safe! It was al! over the world by that time. Still Nancy nor I cabled, but we hadn't heard about how awful it was. That night in Rome we had a terrible storm, the wind blew everything down in our room. Later, after we were in Nice, France we bought New York Tunes, and that was the first I knew of the disaster; the paper also said several buildings were cracked In Rome and tiler ’ was a sort of hurrtcan, but no one was killed. We cabled home then. Visit to The Pope. Our reason for returning to Rome an extra day and night was for those who wished to have an audi ence with the Pope. X could ha cily stand anything on my back, I was so blistered from the hot sun at Sorrento, so I stayed In that diy. Nancy went to see the Pope; „he said the only cost was 75 cents for a veil to cover her hair; poor thing she liked to never have found a black dress long enough, they had to almost. reach the ankles I seiit my ring fnd had It blessed; guess I’m funny, but I Just didn’t have a desire to see him. She told about how they went into the large room where he was and that each of them kissed his ring. Next week we shall visit on our tour Oenoe.
