Nervous Cramps in

DIR. Miles Nervine Was
My Salvation.

Sleeplessness is at once a symptom and
disease. Just as soon as the nerves become
deranged the patient suffers from sleepless-
ness. Deprived of their natural rest the
nerves soon lose all force and vitality and
while sleeplessness is symptom IN sucn
cases it frequently becomes chronic and
remains the chief effect of disordered nerves,
DIR. Miles Nervine quiets the nerves and
strengthens them; soothes the tired praln
and permits sleep; restores lost energy ana

BooHoo FEVER IN HAWAII.
strange AiIment Returns 10 the Is-
lands After an Absence of
Twenty Years.

"Boo-hoo" fever has made its ap-
pearance in Hawaii again, after an abb
sence of nearly 20 years, says San
Francisco report. Medical men call it
the "dengue" fever, or a mild form Of
Panama fever 1t is not dangerous,
only disagreeable. and affects the
white people more than the natives.
In the olden days il used to be said that
nobody could claim to be resident Of
Hawaii until he had experienced an
attack of ''boohoo." symptoms are
somewhat like those Of the grip-a
racking pain in the small Of the back.
high fever and pains in all the bones,
It is accompanied by a rash and lasts
for a week OF ten days. Teachers and
pupils in the public schools have sue
curbed 20 the disease In large num-
bers. and even the doctors have not
been exempt. Another name for the
sickness is ~breakbone" fever. be-
cause the pains and aches in the
bones makes the patient feel as If their
bones would break The name boo
hoo was given 70 the fever because
those who had il were always ready
to CRY. Tie mosquito is q great diE
triDutor Of the sickness.

SERVANTS IN MANILA.
Their Methods Of DoinR Honseworx
WouId Not Exactly Suit Amer
lean Housewives.

From my friends here learn thar
much Of the patriarchal system Of liv-
Ing still prevails even in Manila, says
an American woman in the Outlook.
In some large houses there are from
twenty to thirty dependents OF AL de-
grees, from poor relations to cooks
and scullions. These persons live
about the house, sleeping in corners,
and are clothed ana fed by the mis-
tress. They marry, have children,
and raise them in harum7scarum
way that would drive an American
woman to an insane asylum. Again
and again I have seen in one OF the
finest houses here small naked chill
dren asleep behind the parlor door,
while large eyed, placid women
nursed babies quite unabashed as
they crouched on the floor in the
Railways. These servants have their
home, their clothes, food and from
three to five pesos month. In a way,
! suppose they earned this money, as
they nonchalantly polish the hard
wood floors or carelessly flap the dust
from the center of tables and chairs.
They sit on the floor in kitchens in
front Of pan of water and wash the
dishes that are piled up around them,
and stack them edgeways along the
wall to dry. Surely their ways are
not ours, and it is a shock to the
nerves to see q kitchen in the heat
Of preparation for banquet OF
which one is to partake later. 1t re-
quires some skill to pass between the
various dishes being prepared on tho
floor, where cats and dogs and babies,
meats and fruits and vegetables seem
hopelessly jumbled up. / always for
get about 1t later, for delicious din
iier win almost always come forth
from the chaos. Many Of these SER
wants have lived all their lives in one
family. They feel themselves depend
ent on their masters, and the idea
Of their going away or being dis
missed never occurs to either master
or servant. There is consequently a
family feeling between them, and
freedom of intercourse that we, dem-
ocrats though we are, would not toll
crate. A friend told me that his head
servant always demonstrates with
him when he disapproves any course
Of action, and sometimes ] have wit
messed an alteration between mis-
tress and maid in which the maid pre-
vailed. At one house, I remember
there was difference of opinion at
dinner as to the kind of wine to be
served, and the servant had his way;
vet they are not considered imperti'
nent by their masters.

DRINK OF THE FILIPINos.
Their Favorite beverage ls Tupai
one of the Products of the
Cocoanut.

Like the people of every nationality,
Filipinos have their favorite beverage,
and this is tuba, one of the products
of the cocoanut, says the Buffalo News
This palatable drink is made by cutting
off the bloom that produces the famous
culinary nut, and then bending the
stem so that its sap will run into long
bamboo jug, the joints of which have
been properly perforated. The drip
pings from single stem of the bloom
aggregates several gallons in the
course of "a hours. Jugs are emptied
night and morning. So the provident
Filipino who has dozen or more stems
dripping has barrel or more to sup
ply the wants of the thirsty at four
centavos bamboo schooner, which
holds between pint and a quart. The
sap begins to ferment as soon as it
drops, and as result the jug that con-
tains it is frothed with mother" be-
fore II is emptied. Each jugs contents
is strained before it is served, and if it
be in glass it can be seen that it close
ly resembles the milk of the nut. The
fermentation gives it an acid taste, and
too much of ii will make one think he
has tackled a grog barrel. The inn
biber, however. has no fear OF racking
head after debauch from it, and in
this, at least. it has redeeming virtue,
for the after effects are never bad. Min
doro has at least two tuba venders who
have made themselves comfortable
homes by traffic in the product. The
cocoanut has rank, but substantial
growth in Mindoro. and natives are
planting tubers wherever they can find
plat of ground into which to stick
them. 1t may be taken from this that
the culture of the cocoanut is destined
to become one of the leading industries
of the island

INSANITY AND SUGGESTION.
guccess OF Various Tricks ResOrted
TO By Physicians In the Treat
ment Of Patients.

Suggestion as a therapeutic agent
Is coming more and more into practice
by reputable physicians. Even insan-
ity is cured by its means, for the doc
tor whose speciality is lunacy under
stands perfectly that certain delusions
must be met by other means than
drugs. There was patient recently in
q Scottish asylum near Glasgow who
had for some years been under the inn
preston that his head was turned the
wrong way on. After various futile
attempts to cure him the doctor in
charge put him in chair, tied him
there securely, and, after blindfolding
him, administered sharp electric
shock. The man got up weeping with
delight, and declaring that at last his
head was straight again. He had be-
come perfectly sane.
A somewhat similar cure was effect
ed by mechanical means upon man
who imagined himself to be top heavy.
A pair of divers boots, weighing some
40 pounds apiece. were fastened upon
his feet. After wearing them for a
few days he was completely cured.
There is nothing doctors find more
difficult than to induce convalescent
patients to sleep properly. During a
recent smallpox epidemic woman
who was getting over bad attack gave
her medical attendant very serious
anxiety because Sne seemed unable to
sleep. She was in so weak state that
he feared to administer drugs, yet it
was plain that unless she did sleep she
would have serious and probably fatal
relapse The doctor accidentally dis
covered that the woman was aware of
this fact, and was making desperate
efforts to sleep. So desperate, indeed,
that they quite defeated their object.
The next night he resolved on an ex-
pertinent. Mixing harmless dose of
colored water and sugar, he admins
tered 1t to his patient. and told her
that there was now no need to try to
sleep, because the dose would send her
off within 20 minutes. Exactly 20 mi
nutes later the woman fell into a sound
sleep which lasted IA hours. The doc
tor had no further trouble with her.
Color healing. which has for CEN
furies past been practiced in India, is
on the same principle, says the Detroit
News-Tribune. 1t simply consists in
administering pure water in glasses
of different colors, from which color
the draught obtains properties mag
ical in their effect, provided the pa
tient is endowed with sufficient faith.
Water in red glass is used to cure
epilepsy and all nervous diseases; in a
blue glass ii is a specific for paralysis,
while in a green glass it is used as a
cure for fevers and other complaints.
