Another kind OF pain In the head Is
simple neuralgia, which Is usually con-
fined to . limited area. and In which
the pain isl sharp and Of q burning.
boring or stabbing character.
sSs Migraine. or sick headache; is q spe~
FFciaalls disease, different from ordinary
headache neuralgia, and is believed
to be due stt01lSFronstitutional causes. It
often occurs IN families. members OF
which have had migraine or other ner-;
vous troubles. such as neuralgia or
1 epilepsy; O govt. The attacks COM
monty begin In childhood and tend to
increase in frequency and Intensity up
to middle life, after which they often
disappear spontaneously.
The attacks may seem to be brought
on by many of the influences that
cause an ordinary headache in one not
predisposed to migraine, but they oc-
cur from time to time when no cause
can be discovered. They are generally
moresfreQuent IN winter than in sum,
mer.
Sometimes a definite cause: may be
found on careful examination, such az
irregularttessof thelnasal cavities, as.
tigmatism or other eye trouble. the
~so-called uric acid diathesis, and SO
forth. In such casessa cure. or at least
a marked Improvement. may bs
brought about by removal or diminu-
ton Of the cause. Si
Warning Of an impending attack is
often given by a feeling Of lassitude or
drowsiness during the preceding day.
The sufferer wakes in the morning
w.ittlhsa spain;,o o a throbbing character,
In one side Of the head, and this In
creases in intensity and extent until
work must be abandoned. There may
be disturbances .of, vision; sometimes
an eyelid droops, nausea isssfelt, and
often vomiting OF bilious matter oc-
ours: Thesface.ls usually pale, but may
be flushed.
During ar attack the patient may
obtain; some relief by remaining quiet
in q .darkened room, 81 it4 cold appli-
cations and pressure to the head. a
cupeofshot water or tea L. sometimes
soothing. The sufferer should be care
full to take meqicihes only on the doc
tors advice, for any drug that can, cut
short,a n attack Of sick headache is.too
powerful to be used c~arelessly.-

Crusoe,. Island.

Most every boy and many girls have
read Robinson Crusoe." Capt. Slo-
cum has been telling the readers of the
Century about the call he made at
Crusoe's Island. He says 1t is a lovely
spot to stay for a little while, but he
does not seem to want to stay as long
as Crusoe and Friday did. The hills
are wooded. the valleys fertile and
there is plenty Of pure water. There
are no serpents or wild beasts, other
than pigs Ct which he saw a number,
and q dog or two. II
The people live without any rum or
beer. police officer or lawyer. and they
have no fashions Each one dresses to
suit his own taste. There Ia no doc
tor. and the people seem all healthy:
There r about 46 souls ON the island,
the grown people mostly from the
mainland and Of South America. One
lady from Chill made a flying lib for
the vessel Capt. Slocum was in. and
she vas 10 beautiful he thought she
would be a belle at Newport.
The captain went up to the lookout
place at the top Of the mountain.
where selkirk spent many days peer
ing into the distance for the ship that
came at last. and he saw the cave in
which Selkirk lived while on the is-
land. Ships have an anchorage there,
but not q good one. This island ol
Juan Fernandez was once q convict
station, but no more prisoners are sent
there.

a Mouse Catches the Files.

~ g- a N1OU80 N60cLAe0 AA0 Az + :. W
"A tiny mouse that seems to have
its own way in all it cares to do hal
taken up quarters in a bulk window
on Chestnut street. The. window con-
'tains a fine display of travelling bagl
and dressing cases. and under ordin,
airy circumstances the presence OF thu
little intruder would not be tolerated
q minute. But this is not IN ordinary
mouse. Instead Of creating havoc and
damage by gnawing holes In the valu'
able bags and grips. this particular
mouse does a valuable service to thu
firm by spending its time In catching
the flies that are unwise enough to
come within reach. Every evening
after the store has been closed and
the clerks have gone home a crowd
gathers on the pavement outside and
watches the little fellow capture un,
wary flies. It is q wonderful per.
Torrance, and SO quick of movement
and keen Of eye is the mouse that q
fly rarely escapes that it springs for,
The mouse's mode Is simple and eff.
fectual. From a crouching attitude i!
waits until q fly comes close enough
then it straightens up IN Its hind legs
the two front paws, like tiny hands!
are thrust upward and the unwary fly
Is cluched and brought down. After
that the mouse eats the fly. and theI
gets ready to catch another.-Phlia.

WOMEN OF CHINA,
Their Lives 90 unhappy One sro,n

q 11CkKH AA1v08 NWu AAPH ENSno 4 y ~
radle to Grave.
There are two events which glade:
the somber. restricted life OF the ca
nese woman-one her marriage at III
early age, the other the birth of a soa.
No greater distinction awaits the CHI
nese woman in this world than to give
birth to. son--in the next she is Ct
little consequence, as she is not sup.
posed to possess a~soul. Her let here
is not an enviable one, for If she is
Of high caste she is secluded in her
husbands home, and cannot walk on
her mutilated feet. and IL she does
not bear her husband many sons she
is regarded as piece of useless fur
niture. A Chinaman desires offspring
for the selfish reason that his bones
may be worshiped-if he Is not a
parent he cannot be an ancestor, which
would be a calamity in a country
where the religion consists mainly in
sitting on a. tomb and reciting the viz
tues OF the dead. Girls in China are
accounted as household shadows and
household sorrows." Formerly they
were drowned like blind kittens at
birth, but the missionaries r respon-
sible for the doubtful good Of preserv-
ing their lives In later years. The
Christianized Chinaman does not OBJ
ject to q daughter, although his &C
ceptance Of the disappointment zig in
the nature Stof a %,penance. Native
Cinnamon look down on their wives
and, in every way they a show their
contempt for them, believing. that 9
man, should do this in order to main
tain. his own supremacy. Some oi
their popular sayings convey this idea
"a man should listen to his wife, but
he must not believe her. "a wom-
ans. mind is quicksilver; her heart IL
wax" The l~ove-making In China il
of the most intricate and matter-of-
fact kind. The contracting parties arr
,betrothed in childhood, often in, thei1
infancy, and sometimes before ethel
was born. It would seem. as If, all thu
superstitions of the rest of the world
had been banished to China, whose
Kingdom they hold for their own. A
Chinaman is afraid to look over, bill
shoulder, for he knows he'll see 4
ghost-that he never did,.see one hal
t noweight with him. II he sneezes hi
wife Isl thinking OF: him. and he feel
that all is: right at, home, but II III
neighbor sneezes and he does not !, h
believes himself neglected and be
comes morbidly jealous.#5Quit lik'
other women, the Chinese wife has he
little plans and schemes and advise
her husband to wear q wet handker
chief in his hat to keep his shaver pol
from sunstroke. When the towe
cools he naturally sneezes, and whel
he goes home commends his wife TO
thinking of him during his absence.

The director Of the Montana Exper-

swine. both old and young. This me-
cessitates q pig-tight pasture fence.
OF materials employed for fence con-
struction lumber is perhaps the best.
However, 1t Is expensive. in It's first
cost and subsequent maintenance. and
its tendency to collect snowdrifts
makes it Objectionable. Wire fences
are cheaper and more durable. We
have tried swine fences built Of thick
set barb wire, wire three inches apart,
tightly stretched, stapled to posts 16
feet apart, with stakes between posts
four feet apart. It would seem that
such a fence would turn the pigs. but
1t did not. The cuts and scratches
caused by the wires heal rapidly on
swine. and the little fellows would
wriggle through, Indifferent to 1.-THE
barbs. Later we have used a fence
made Of smooth wire. three different
numbers, woven into q close mesh
fence.
