Died Whist1in9.

DR.. William Krauss In The Journal
of Nervous and Mental Diseases de-
scribes the case of a Polish herdsman,
q years of age, weighing 23O pounds,
who some months previous to an acci'
dent had suffered from apoplexy re-
sultlng in left hemiplegia- He was
slowly regaining the use OF his arm
and leg when he was struck by a train
and was found unconscious on the
track with three scalp wounds. There
was a depressed fracture of the skull
three inches above and one inch be-
hind the left ear. He was Immediately
trephined and the depressed bone re-
moved.
About 10 o'clock at night he began
to whistle, not, however, the popular
songs Of the day." but the whistle calls
he was accustomed to use In calling or
driving his flocks. He would continue
whIstling for about one minute, then
would cease for FIVE or ten minutes
and kept this up at regular Intervals
until he died. At no time was 1t pos.
sible to distinguish any melody. The
sounds were of the same pitch and In
tensIty and of the same character
They were audible throughout the
ward and attracted the attention OF pa
tients and attendants. To the ply
sicians in attendance 1t was strange
experience to hear these whistle calls
coming from q patient In a state Of
Inconsistencies. It was impossible te
rouse the patient at any time before
or after the accident, and he died
whistling O few minutes before death

a young and good looking man who
was strolling about the wharf as If in
search Of some one accosted me with
an inquiry as to my capability as q
navigator and later on asked me to ac-
company him to cafe for talk. AS
the young man was Brazilian and a
landsman my curiosity was naturally
aroused. He was rather slow in COM
ing to the point, being evidently desir-
GUS of sizing me up, and l had begun
to grow little impatient when he
leaned across the table and said:
"Senor, l have decided to trust you
and tell you the truth. 1t is an expedi-
ton to carry off young lady,"

want nothing to do with it." ! re-

In This Case the Work was
Properly Done.

Any reader who has had backache and
found relief by rubbing the back with

the relief obtained was but makeshift'

do It 90 the ache will not come back.

"In the winter of 1897 became so en-

that if my Recommendation would help

in our Providence newspapers since, and

: Looking Without Seeing.


Perhaps you are an exception to the
rule, but II you are not you have prob
ably on many occasions, just after look
Ing at your watch, been forced to &C.
knowledge to q friend who asked you
the time that you did not know what 1t
was. Yet you undoubtedly took your
timepiece out of your pocket, looked at
its face and carefully replaced 1t In
your pocket, showing a logical Sc
quence of thought and well defined
object, which did not, however, result
In leaving a sufficiently distinct i'm
preston on your mind to satisfy your
friends curiosity as to the hour OF the
day. The motion was not an involun-
tary one, like that Of the boy who can
not too often admire his first chronom.
eter, nor yet habitual, for few persons
are merely in the habit Of taking out
their watches. One does 80 only for a
specific purpose.
Now, how may this seeming contra
diction be accounted for? Perhaps the
reason is that not once in ten times
does q man look at his watch to see
what the actual time Is, but rather to
learn whether he still has time to ac-
complish some purpose. He may want
to keep an appointment at a certain
time or to be sure not to miss a boat
or train. When he takes out his watch,
therefore, he instinctively looks for
the hands in the position called for by
that particular moment, and when he
sees that they have not yet reached
that point he returns the watch to Its
resting place, with his mind relieved.
The actual position Of the hands real
ly plays no part at all in the opera
ton, and so when the time Is asked of
him he is unable to reply. In other
words, he accomplishes the paradoxical
feat of intently looking at thing with
out really seeing 1t.

Waste, Rest and Exercise.

William NJ. Evarts was q marvel OF
intellectual vitality to an advanced
age. and he used to explain it by say
Ing that he slept late in the morning
and never took any exercise. There
Is no advantage In getting up early In
the morning II you need the sleep,
Many a man Is burning the candle al
both ends by getting up at an early
hour simply because his housekeeping
Is adjusted to that programme. AS to
physical exercise. Mr.. Evarts had dis.
covered for himself what our physiolo.
gists are now beginning to teach
namely. that If man consumes tissue
In hard intellectual work the way to
repair the loss Is by resting and not
by consuming more tissue In physical
exercise. To the majority Of brain
workers Organization Of the blood is
far more important than physical exer.
else, and there are two very good ways
to secure that: Sleep with your bed
room window wide open In summer
and winter, and, II you can afford 1t,
keep a horse and drive in the open air.

THE OLD ROCKING HORSE.

Battered and bruised and worn and old,
Bereft Of his name and tail,
A veteran charger stanch and bold,
He has weathered LIES fercest gale
The hero Of many . gallant raid,
In many bloodless war.
A soldier Of fortune, undismayed
BY battle and wound and scar!
Meath the guiding touch OF little hand
He has travelled many mile
Through the wonderful realms Of Playlike LAND
Where the spirits Of fancy smile.
But strange to say, in his boldest fight,
Though he halted or rested not,
Through all his travels by day and night
He has stood in the selisame spoil
He was ridden far, he was ridden hard,
He has borne fierce brunts and blows
And oft has felt, as sweet reward,
kiss on his WORKOUT nose.
And, though he Is rather the worse Tor wear
And is crippled and SCARED and old,
In the eyes OF his master he still Is fair
And worth his weight in gold.

CONCERNING HEADACHES.

To attempt to Danish all variations OF
headache by a single "cure" shows a
child-like faith in medicine, but very lit
tie common sense. The first step
towards curing headache is to find out
which kind of one it is, and to devote
ones energies to drive it away. The
headache, which results from indiges-
ton, is of frequent occurrence, and il
implies over-eating or unwise eating,
and that when woman finds herself
afflicted with such a headache, she
should proceed to cure it by fasting and
a mild cathartic, and sitting with
her feet in hot water before going to
bed.
The nervous headache is the kind to
which women are most subjected, as ii
results from the effort to make the
nerves do more than they ought to do
The first step in treating this headache
is to drop work and worry, if possible,
and draw the blood from the head by
soaking the feet in hot water, and put
ting cold applications to the forehead
and the back of the neck.
A great many mysterious headaches
have their origin in over-strained eyes
This kind is cured only by giving the
eyes vacation or by the oculist. OF
course, care in the use of the eyes is also
help. Reading, writing, or sewing in a
dim or Pickering light must be given
up. The common practice of trying to
read in iolting trains must also be dis
carded. The eyes must never be used
too long at time, and when there is
much eye work to be done, brief rests
and bathings in hot water will ward off
the dreaded headache.
The headache which is the result of
exposure to colds or draughts or sudden
changes, is best treated by hot applica-
tions, hot water bags, and gentle friction
of the place of pain. If this does rot
Danish the headache in a day, then a
deeper illness is indicated.
The best way to treat headaches is to
avoid them-to refuse to overtax the
eyes, the nerves or the stomach, and to
give attention to exercise and bathing.

the RlGHT THING To PUT ON.
(Bsnsons Plaster Is Pains Mastsr0

From the natural impulse TO "put some
thing on" a painful spot all applications
for the relief of pain have arisen.
The most successful have ever been poul-
tees or plasters, and the best of these Is
Benson's Porous Plaster.
No other has anything like the same
power as q curative agent; 1t is highly and
scientifically moderated, and its standard
is advanced year by year.
Use Benson's Plaster for coughs, colds,
chest diseases, rheumatism, grip, neuralgia,
kidney trouble, lame back, and other all
ments that make Winter season of suffer
ing and danger. 1t relieves and cures
quicker than any other remedy.
Do not accept Capsicum, Strengthening
or Belladonns plasters in place Of Benson's,
as they possess none Of its curative power.
Insist on having the genuine.
The people of every civilized land have
testified for years TO the superlative merit
of Benson's Plastsrs; and 5000 physicians
and druggists of this country have declared
them worthy of public confidence.
In official comparisons with others, Ben
sons Plasters have been honored with
.ffty. fps highest awards.
