The tendency is to work too fast. The movement should be about as fast as a man breathes, the object being to simulate the ordinary respiratory movements as nearly as may be. While this is being done another person may grasp the tongue and pull it up and out of the mouth, keeping time with the movements of the arms. When the patient begins to show signs of life wrap him well in hot blankets, place hot stones at his feet, and administer hot water, brandy, or strong hot coffee. As before suggested, the efforts at restoration should be persisted in for a long time, until either success rewards your efforts or the body becomes quite cold and rigid. It may be that there is a little spark of life left and you may fan it into flame after hours of effort. There are many minor accidents for which it is well to be prepared. For example, to remove a fish hook: Do not try to pull it back; push it on through, file or break off the barb and it can be removed readily. To remove foreign bodies from the eye: First cocainize the eye by dropping a few drops of a solution made by dissolving one of the cocaine tablets in a half teaspoonful of water, then turn the lid back over a match telling the person to look down at the same time, and brush the substance off with a soft cloth. If it is under the lower lid place your forefinger on his cheek just beneath the eye, pull down, and tell him to look up. If it adheres to the eyeball, as in the case of a cinder or a small piece of steel, after cocainizing the eye remove with a sharp knife by brushing. Insects sometimes crawl into the ear and make a lot of commotion. Place the patient on his side with that ear uppermost and pour plenty of warm water into the ear. By plenty I mean several quarts. The bug will crawl out or be washed out by the returning stream of water. Burns well characterized toothache as "Thou hell of a' diseases." If the tooth has a cavity (as it probably has), a small crystal of cocaine dropped dry into the cavity and covered with a little pledget of cotton will give immediate relief. For bleeding from the nose, place a pledget of cotton in each nostril, lay the patient on his face, and pour cold water over the back of the neck. Leave the cotton there for several hours. The idea is that the fibrin in the blood becomes entangled in the fiber of the cotton and sets up a clot that seals the bleeding surface, while the cold water closes the blood supply by its action on the artery supplying the parts.
