NEURALGIA.

Nerves.-Wcre it possible TO observe the
misery of the world in some concrete
form nothing ever conceived would
surpass its horrors. Every one of the
thread-like nerves have each latent
power to cause excrueiating pain, the
limit of which is simply tile limit OF
human endurance Think of the tooth
ache. with single little nerve at work
to drive one crazy; think of NEURALGIA,
with a few OF these iibrous torments
all palsing painfully at once, and then
reflect that al the same moment thou
sands, tens OF thousands, perhaps mil
lions. are suffering alike.

Subtitle Pain. Neuralgia affections are
perhaps the most pronounced in the
enormous list Of aches and pains. Moth

so fragrant, acute and distressing, and
certainly nothing, all the world admits,

its ravages and so permanently con-
quers its pangs as that above mentioned

Sympf0ms.-Neuralgia is defined to be
nerve disease, the chief symptom Of
which is very acute pain. internitting,
which follows the course OF the nerve
branch affected, and which seems there

general symptoms are: Soreness along
the nerve: pains alternating between

an unknown quantity The American
barber aims to make his shop rs attract

able as possible. In decorations and fit

are exceC< ;ngly artistic. In Europe
things are different. An American VS.
iting Paris or London, on placing him
self in the aands Of a native barber, will
at once sah for the land Of his birth, and
would even onjoy the gossip Of his
American barbe-.
In the provincial towns and cities Of
Germany a barber is an insStution. lie
is dignitary TO some extent. Tho head

cups and leeches. cuts oF .cg or

razor across a customers face The head
BARRIERS assistants start out with their
shaving outfits early in the morning and
DO the shaving right at the homes Of
customers, who make a contract for a
wear to be shaved 20 many times week
for so much-generally about $40 Is the
price. Customers must be at home when
the barber calls or they will not be shaved
until the next trip. There are very few
shops and very poor ones IN Germany.
The European on visiting america is
astounded at the luxury, the artistic ar
rangement and general elegance of the
American barber shop.-George Werner
