A NOTED physician says: The increased,
and apparently increasing, frequency of
neuralgia headache among women must
need have cause. There is one of sin.
gular simplicity and quite obvious which
has been overlooked, and to which it is
worth while to draw attention. The pain
experienced is generally located in one or
more of the branches of the second Ger
vical nerve, very commonly those termn-
ating in the scalp at the Occiput. AS a
matter of fact the nerves of the scalp are
irritated by the hair being drawn tightly
back on the strain, not as whole, in which
case the strain would be spread over a
large area of the surface, but by small
bundles of hair which are pulled back and
held in place by hairpins. Relief is often
consciously experienced as a result of re-
moving the hairpins, but this has only a
temporary and partial effect. The injury
done is lasting, if not permanent, in its
consequences. The present style of dress
ing the hair should be discontinued, as it
pro baby, in part, at least, accounts for
the extreme prevalence of form of suf-
fering which is both intractabe and diss
tressing.

He is a victim of heart disease and since
his honorable discharge from the army
has travelled everywhere and consulted
famous physicians about his case. They
all tell him the same thing. which is that
he is likely to drop dead at any mo.
ment; no hope at all is held out for him,
and there is no telling how long he may
live. His doctors tell him that he may live
five minutes or ten years; there is abso.
lutely no certainty about it one way or
the other. The man has an ample fortune
and he does not seem to be worried or
nervous from his condition, yet that he is
trying to forget it is evident from the in
defatigable manner in which he turns
from one amusement to another His Pc
culiar condition is so well known that
when he passes down the aisle of thea>
tire men look after him askance and
glance half anxious at one another They
seem to be expecting the end as constant

to Make Some Remarks.
LONDON, Aug. 27-At a public meeting
in Dublin, Tuesday, Parnell said it did not
make any difference whether the Liberals
or Tories won the coming elections, the Irish
| party could control and secure from one of
them as good measure for Ireland as
| from the other. "If we use iudg-
ment and moderation" he contin.
ued tive shall see the two English
parties competing to settle the IRISH ques-
ton. There is something solemn and daz-
zhng in the thought that we belong to gem

struggle las ing 200 years, opposed by such
tremendous obstacles and odd. Cheers. ]
| Only the Irish can defeat themselves The
English parliament can not defeat u.s.
| lCheers. We have met and beaten the
worst that England can do"
At a conference of the managers it was
decided to consult Parnell in selecting each
| candidate, and demand from the candidate
pledge to support all Home Rule meas
ures, and resign his seat if ordered TO do so
| by his colleagues.
| This speech and action has thoroughly
aroused the Conservative pres, OF England.
The Times says that no prudent politician can
underrate the Importance of the action taken
by the Irish Nationalist at their conference
| in Dublin Tue-day. mir. Parnells pro-
| gramme" continue The Times, may, how
ever, meet with fate similar TO that which
| befell OCOnnell's at a time when the Irish
| men were as confident they are now, Mr..
| Parnell demands the repeal OF the union.
So the Irish question is no longer n question
| of local self-government. This might lie
acceded to by England, but she will never
listen to plan for the separation of Ireland" "
The Standard says: "Mr. Parnell has de-
clared war. 1t will be a shame and dis
aster if the statesmen of both pafties fail to
battle him. We do not pretend to
ignore the danger TO wdich the imperial
| unity is exposed Mr. Parnell now

him, but it will te different in parliament

ment over Mr.. Parnelrs bold declarati II for

one of closest friends. Miss Abbott, told
her that she had been corresponding with
q man who worked for j. C. Baylis, of
Jamaica, l. l., who had proposed
marriage to her. As his name was Edward
