A bilious headache is a somewhat
common complaint, but no less disa-
greeable on that account. There are
remedies for it by the dozen, but prob
ably none simpler or more effective
h the following. After nearly filing
a breakfast cup with black coffee,
squeeze into it the juice of one lemon,
and in a very short time after this has
been taken relief will be experienced.

Hot Air Baths Forward
as a General Cure.
Application and Effects-Taken up
Results That Are on Record.

Baths of hot air have proven very
successful in recent medical practice.
They are applied by means of metal
cylinder encasing the leg or by body
apparatus which consists of metal
section, about thirty inches long with
closed canvas extension for the feet
and canvas curtain for the end from
which the head protudes, and they have
been found especially advantageous in
rheumatism and govt, but also in
bronchial and asthmetic difficulties,
and even for sprains and bruises.
The temperature ranges from go de-
grees to 400 degrees, the bath lasting
about an hour. The skin and kidneys
are stimulated, circulation is restored,
sleep returned to the sleepless, and the
general economy is rejuvenated.
One physician states that the more
one works with this useful therapeutic
measure the more enthusiastic he is
likely to become.
Among remarkable results reported
| is the cure of senile gangrene in man
seventy-nine years old, who was dis
charged in two weeks although his left
| toes had been badly liberated and prac-
| tically dead, and hot air had been tried
as last resort.
| Another striking cure being that of 9
Western college professor. who was
Obliged by equity disease to sit with his
| legs Strengthened out and for a year
had been unable to feed or dress him
self. but who after twelve baths rode
bicycle six miles.

TO REDUCE RAM|E.
The Efforts That Have
Been Made for Machine.
Money Expended BY Government
and alS-RewardS-Two
TeStS-ProgreSS

One of the most interesting problems
of the day in the utilization of the new
fiber material, and one that is attract
ing the attention of all civilized coun-
tries, saws G.. r. Dodge in the Popular
Science Monthly, is the industrial pro-
duction of that wonderful substance
known in The Orient as China grass, in
India as rhea and in Europe, America
and the Hawaiian Islands, as ramie.
The money spent by government and
by private enterprise throughout the
world, in experiments and inventions,
in the effort to establish the ramie in
dustry, would make up the total OF
princely fortune. Obstacle after OBJ
of persistent effort, and now we stand
before the last barrier, baffled for the
time, but still hopeful, and with efforts
unrelaxed The difficulty may be stat
ed in a few words: Ramie culture Will
only become paying industry when an
economically successful machine for
stripping the fiber has been placed on
the market. Hundreds of thousands OF
dollars have been spent in efforts TO
perfect a machine, but no government
fiber expert in the world recognizes
that we have such a machine at the
present time, though great progress has
been made in machine construction.
The worlds interest in this fiber be-
gan in 1869, when a reward OF 4 5000
was offered by the government OF In
dia for the best machine with which
| to decorticate the green stalks. The
first exhibition and trial of machines
took place in 1872, resulting in utter
failure. The reward was again offered
and in 1879 a second official trial wa:
held. at which ten machines competed
though none filed the requirements
and subsequently the offer was with
drawn.

AN INTEREST FOOT RACE.

An interesting foot race took place in
England the other day-interesting be-
cause it shows how old Father Time
will impair athletic proves. The con-
testants were Harry Hutchens and A.
r. Downer. The former was cham
pion nearly twenty years ago, and the
latter is considered the champion now.
Hutchens is almost old enough TO De
Downer's father and has run more
races probably than Downer and all his
rivals put together. The race was one
of 200 yards, and Hutchens was given
seven yards. Youth won easily, and
Downer crossed the tape ahead in the
tolerably good time of 20 1-5 seconds
yet Harry Hutchens was an extraordl'
nary Splinter in his time. His record
Of 800 yards in 80 second will stand
long time yet, and it was made sixtee1
years ago.

HAWAIIAN BANANAS.
Introduction Into Seattle-Freight
and Quality.

Bananas from Honolulu, regularly
appearing ON the Victoria market, are
novelty in Seattle, says paper OF
that city. A shipment of several hun
dred punches of bananas reached there
on the steamer Centennial, and marked
the initiation of a trade which is ex-
pected to develop considerable proper
tions. if the direct service lasts. Ba-
nanas on the Seattle market for the
last five years have been shipped by
rail from New Orleans, the freight rate
being $125 per 100 pounds. The ad-
vantage of shipping by steamer from
Honolulu lies in the condition IN when
the fruit arrives, and not in the freight
rate. which is 80 cents per bunch. The
average net weight of bunch of ba-
nanas seldom runs over 80 pounds
There is some diversity OF opinion
among local buyers as to the quality
of Hawaiian bananas. They appear te
be smaller than those received here
from Central and South America, Wa
New Orleans, though it is MAINTAINED
by some that the favor is excellent.
