a cGrs for Neuralgia.


Several evenings since l was attacked
with severe dental neuralgia. After re-
sorting TO friction, cold and hot applica.
tons, ETC., without obtaining any relief, I
lay upon my bed, trusting that sleep might
come aud give me respite. Still the excrt,.
ciating pain continued, and while 1 was
suffering the ''tortures Of the doublv
damned" undecided whether to arouse
some tired druggist for bottle Of chloro-
form or chop my head off with a decided
preference, however, for the chloroforml, /
suddenly bethought me Of what I had read
Of an anesthetic which we always carry
with us. Thereupon began to initiate my
lungs TO their utmost capacity, and then
torcibly blow out all the alr could. I'm.
mediately the pain began to lesson, and
alter few repetitions Of the process 1t
had entirely ceased, being displaced BY d
delightful tickling sensation in the gums.
and furthermore / know not, for In less
time than 1t takes to tell it 1 was sound
asleep, awakening next morning delight
fully refreshed, and without a symtom Of
my ailment left Hence, you see, 1 was
not simply temporarily relieved, but en-.
tirely well again. I wish other sufferers
would try this and report results.

Como era de esperar, E7 Agente
vuelve a publicarse tres veces a la
semana, por la causa, por nosotros
prevista, de que, duplicados los gas
tos y permaneciendo las mismas las
entradas, DO es possible trabajar de
balde y poner ell hilo. Para que ha-
va en- Puerto-Rico un peri6dico dia-
rio de las dimensiones de N Agente
6 del BoLET1N es precise 6 dollar ell
precio de la suscripcion 6 que Sc du-
plique ell n1mero de suscriptores.
No desesperamos nosotros de que
llegue un dia a ser diario ell BoLETIN;
pero esta reforma que anhelamos no
depende de nosotros sino del pdblico.
Los materiales y ell buen deseo So
bran 10 que falta es que ell perio-
dico Sc haga en- Puerto Rico un artl-
culo de primera necesidad como en-
otros palses mas adelantados. Mas
en- tanto que las nueve d6cimas par
tes de los que leen 10 hagan de pres
tado, y que ell noventa por ciento de
la poblacion total no sepa 8 no quie-
ra leer diarios, no tendremos MIN
guno it'll y permanente en- Puerto
Rico.
