Some Causes of Head ache.

Derangements of the heart and diges.
tive apparatus are quite common causes
of pain in the head. Headache is also
provoked by changes in other organs,
quite distant from the head. A char
acteristic headache is that in which the
pain is felt most severely upon the top
of the head. Reflex headache is very
good name for this pain. The way in
purely mechanical. An enlarged heart
or one temporarily over-excited from
some cause pumps an undue quantity of
blood into the cranial cavity, which is
an unyielding space. Tho unusual
amount of blood now present in this
space pressing upon the sensitive parts
of the brain produces L pain in the head,
which is called congestive headache.
This pain is made worse by any excite
ment, or by STOPPING, a fact that helps to
indicate the nature of the case. The
pain felt in the head after unusual
libations, and also after some undue
mental effort, is probably of this nature.
Headache from arrangement of the
digestive apparatus is probably the most
frequent of all. Atrocious headaches
these are. They generally happen like
this The victim rises from bed in the
morning feeling trife off, with per-
haps sense of uneasiness in the stom-
ach and slight pain in one temple. AS
the day advances the pain in the head
and general distress increase, and by
afternoon the individual reckons that his
head is fit to burst and doesn't care very
much if it would do SO; presently an
attack of vomiting and perhaps slight
diarrhea occurs, and then the pain grad
ually disappears, to return again, how
ever, when the necessary conditions are
present for its existence. These are the
typical sick headaches, some of the vic
TINS of which declare they have inherit
ed the trouble. There is considerable
likeness between the condition just de-
scribed and seasickness.
The pain in the head very usually co.
incident with the onset of some febrile
| complaints is very good example OF
headache from general systematic con.
ditions. In this case the circulation OF
vitiated blood probably provekes pain,
neuralgia in character. Individuals who
have inherited strongly marked nervous
| tendencies and who from any cause may
be in poor general health are very liable
to have pains shooting up through the
temples and back of the head. The pains
are often followed with soreness of the
scalp. They also are neuralgia in char
acter, and are especially obstinate in the
aged. Coincident plumbic Qead) Oh
malarial poisoning increases the suscep
tibility of individuals to these palms,

WIT AND WISDOM.

Woman is the idol that man worships.
And the more idle she is the more he
worships her.
Do not wear your troubles and misfor-
tunes all on the outside like an overcoat,
but keep them hidden within, like q
ragged-back vest.
| A woman, lately, looking at printing
press ut work, turned to her companion,
and in most earnest manner inquired:
well, Charley, an them's the things as
writes the papers. Be's them what they
call editors?"
| An Irish corporal, who now and then
| INDUCED, was thus accosted by his cap
tain, while standing at ease: Pat. what
makes your nose SO red?' 'Plese, yer
honor" said Pat, IT always blush when
| I spakes TO an officer. Z

tailed horse1: stBless mel how short

this fashion he viii not annoy the poor

The liver pad agent asked Missouri

tising and take his pay in liver pads, and
the editor was very emphatic IN his in
quiry: "What sort of condition do you
think my liver is in, sir?'-Boston Post.
A popular concert singer. advertised

noze until kured. I luy YOU to dis
traxshun."
"How do you feel with such shock

at him steadily with one eye half closed,
as if taking aim at his victim. ST feel,
young man, as if had coatSeon which
I had paid fora luxury of feeling

A man will work twenty-five minutes
trying to light the fuse of sky-rocket,
without frowning. Strange as it may
seem, this is contrary to all human expe-
rience with kitchen fires. The average
man will frown hard at the end of the
first five minutes wrestle with the latter,
| and at the end of the second five the
| frown will be audible.
Poor Penhecker, his ioke--"Why. my

HOME

Obi what Is home? that sweet compaaionship
OF life the better part:
The happy smile of welcome on the lip.
Upepringing from the heart
It Is the eager clasp of kindly hands,
The long,remembered one;
The ready sympathy which understands
All feeling by It's own.
The rosy cheek Of little children pressed
To ours in loving glee;
The presence of our dearest and our best,
No matter where we be.
And. failing this. prince may homeless live,
Though palace walls are nigh;
And, having 1t, q desert shore may give
The JOY wealth gannct buy.
Far.reaching rs eartIfs remotest span.
Widespread Is ocean foam,
One thought is sacred in the breast OF man
1t Is the thought of home.
That little word his Human fate shall bIndd
With desiinies anaRe
For there the home of us immortal soul
Is in Coos wider love.
