AN ALARMING STATEMENT
CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARE FORMED.

The Mr. York Tribune SAYS: THE habit of
taking headache powders is increasing to an
alarming extent among a great number of wo-
men throughout the country. These powders as
their name indicates, are claimed by the manu-
facturers to be a positive and speedy cure for anv
form of headache. In many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine. opium. cocaine or some
otfer equally injurious drug having a Tendency
to deaden pain. The habit of taking them 4
easily formed. but almost impossible to shake
off. Women usually begin taking them to re.
lieve a raging headache and soon resort to the
powder to alleviate any little pain ache they
may be subjected to, and finally like the NOR
phine or opium fend. get into the habit of taking
them regularly. imagining that they i'll pain
they happen to miss their regular dose"
In nine cases out of ten, the trouble is
in the stomach and liver. Take simple
laxative and liver tonic and remove the
offending matter which deranges the
stomach and causes the headache. DR..

Looking Glasses in Conins.

One of the ancient customs con-
aected with Swedish funerals was to
place a small looking glass IN the
coffin of an unmarried female, 30 that
when the last trump sounds she might
be able to arrange her tresses. 1t was
the practice for Scandinavian maidena
to wear their hair flowing loosely,
while the NATIONS wore it bound about
the head and generally covered with
some form Of cap. Hence the unmar-
ried woman was imagined as awaken
ing at the judgment day with more un-
tidy looks than her welded sisters and
more in need of glass. s.-Westminster
