Why We Have Vertigo.
youths Companion.l


Vertigo Is from Latin word that means
to turn. 1t denotes an ailment character
ized by sudden feeling of dizziness, aud
at times by actual falling, Sometimes sur
rounding objects seem to the person at.
tackled to whirl round, or the floor (or
grouhd) to rise up. The fact that vertigo
Is often one OF the earlier symptoms OF
apoplexy frequently fills the person with
terror, lest the deadly disease may be i'm
pending. But In the majority Of cases II
has no such significance, not even as indi-
eating tendency.
To most persons, standing or walking
seems simple thing. On the contrary, II
is a very complicated one, and requires the
concurrent action OF different nervous CEN
teTs. A disturbance Of their harmonious
cooperation at once throws us of our bal.
ance, producing the sensations above indl.
Gated. One form Of vertlgo--a very per-
sistent form-is due to irritation of certain
nerves within the inmost chamber of the
ear, the so called labyrinth, This was what
Dean swift suffered from 80 long, and, TO
the physicians of his day, so uuaccountably.
One Of It's symptoms is partial deafness,
This distinguishes II from all other forms,
Another form connects ltslf mainly with
National Republican., 1886-12-25

the eye. OF thissldndEis the feeling OF gid.
diness which some people have when, being
on q train at rest, another traiu slowly
passing decelves them into the idea that Il
Is their own train which has begun to move.
The glddiness, occurs at the moment when
the false and true sensations become con-
fused together.
In the case OF the nearslghted, the In
tefnal muscles OF the eye often being uu-
duly strained In their effort to converge the
eye sufficiently for the sight of near objects,
suddenly give woy, when the eveballe turn
out and letters run into each other. This
is accomplished by a feeling of giddlness,
eaiache, headache, and sometimes nausea.
A third form connects itself with some
slight disorder Of the stomach, and occurs
most often when the stomach is empty.
There is sudden swimming 10 the head,
objects seem to revolve, and the person
totters and perhaps falls.
The fourth form is purely OF nervous
origin, and Is due TO nervous exhaustion.
1t may be caused by intellectual overstrain,
long continued anxiety, physical excesses,
or the immoderate use of tobacco, alcohol,
or tea. Elevated positions may bring on an
attack. 1t rarely results in actual falling,
but oftener In the feeling Of being about to
fall.

Ground TO supply them with coal, and
they are now idle for want OF fuel. On
this property are large deposits OF magnetic
ores and manganese, which In 1888 were
declared by commission OF government
experts to be among the finest in tho
United States. This valuable property has
recently changed owners; the new proprie-
tors have taken It with the expectation OF
rtsuming work rs soon as this railroad can
supply them with Virginia coke. These
furnaces, the pns companies, and mlnufac-
turefs OF South Carolina will be coal Gus
toners for the road, which will itself

terminal facilities with the necessary

The c. @. and c., or as the boys already
call 1.-THE See-Saw road--by intersecting
every trunk line east OF the Cumberland
mountains, will compel those roads aud
their terminal sea ports to compete
for the freights II will bring from
the Ohio valley. It Is no won
der that the business men OF both the
Carolinas manifest their interest In this rail-
road, or that thoy are giving to the con-
struction company their warm sympathy
and hearty co opcration-puttlug them IN
the practical form Of subscriptions TO the
capital stock Of the railroad company to the
amount already Of one and half million
dollars. They have done this Of their own
motion, believing that within three years
this road will give them business connec-
tions far more extensive ana valuable than
what they have had, will carry TO them at
satisfactory rates the raw materials for their
industries, and will enable the manufacturers
Of the Ohio valley aud the northwest to
compete with their eastern rivals FOR the
trade OF those great states on more equal
terms than they have ever had.
Charleston's merchants, whose true cour-
age has never been displayed TO greater ad-
vantage than during the earthquake calam-
tiles, are looking forward to the completion
OF the road between this city and the Ohio
as the joyful fruitlon Of long deferred
hope; there is much more than an allitera-
tive charm in the name Of this railroad COM

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN MUFFs.
The MuT More Than Three Hundred
Years Old.
Philadelphia ConnoIsseur.

Philadelphia ConnolSseur.
The first appearance of the muff dates
back to the sixteenth century. In the In
ventory of effects left by the widow Of
Nicolai we read, "Item: one velvet muff
lined with sable" At Venice we find q
trace of the muif toward the end Of the
fifteenth century. Celebrated court ladies
and women of noble birth carried them.
The most celebrated and charming picture
in which a muff is shown is that exquisite
painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds, entitled
"The Young Girl With a Muff," which
forms part Of the fine collection OF the
Marquis of Iertford. Nothing could be
more delicate than this work. The young
English girl seems 10 be rather passing
across the canvas than fixed upon 1t, so
wonderful Is the skill with which the artist
has depicted the walking motion, the body
inclined little forward and the head TO one
side. This woman's bust, cut off at the
nufi, is go fine and fresh In tone, so
radidntly original In design, that 1t would
suffice alone TO establish the immortal re-
nown OF Reynolds, for into this work the
artist has put the quintessence OF womanli-
ness, the ideal OF the most exquisite English
loveliness, and has rendered 1t q memorable
type of chilly beauty.

Die Scorniug Death.

Die ScorniDg Death.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 9.-The Times
Democrat publishes an account by an
eyewitness of the execution on Oct. Is of
Gen. +. Del Gado, Lieut.. Col. Indaleclo
Marcia, Commander Miguel Cortez and
Lieut. Gabriel Loyano, who were shot at
Comayagua for leading an expedition
against Honduras. The four officers
above named were lodged In q small
prison at Comayagua when the news OF
their sentence reached them. Gen. Del
Gado's wife was there to plead with a
wife's tears and woman's devotion for her
husbands life.
DEL GADO'S FOLLY.
1t was the desire of President Bogran
to spare Gen. Del Gad0's lie if possible,
and any preteXt would have been readily
seized upon to give him an opportunity
of saving himself and at the same time
Vindicate the tribunal which had con-
demned him. The President sent a mas-
sepger to him to say that if he would
promise to never again take up arms
against Honduras he should receive par
don. The soldier was too brave to accept
even his life on these terms, "a, he sent
back word that he would see Honduras
in an even more tropical climate than
sne now enjoys bef0le he would accept
uln RolOOh Ou StACu Ulcukcs
SEALED HIS FATE.
When bIs answer was received there
WAS nothing lett but to prepare for the
execution. In countries south of this
there are few prelimlnaries to such not
uncommon events. A priest, firing
squad and coffin are soon obtained. on
the morning OF their execution the men
we're taken TO a point near the church of
Comsyagua. Four cOflns were placed
near the wall and the four condemned
men were led to them. They accepted
their positions ss easily and gracefully as
ii they were in boxes at the opera and not
face was blanched, not a nerve
quivered.
DEL GADO's LAST REQUEST.
Gen. Del aado asked and received per-
mission to order the guard to fire, which
he did, trst requesting them not to shoot
him In the tace but in the breast. There
was no rattle. no scattering reports, but
one sharp, stunning report. The four men
for BALI a second remained in an upright
position as if still unhit and then rolled
over limp and bloody, dead. The soldiers
bad complied with Gen Cards request,
for three balls had penetrated his breast.
