Children often cry, not from pain
but from hunger, although fed
abundantly. The entire trouble
arises from inanition, their food il
not assimilated, but devoured BY
worms. A few doses Of Whites

to cease crying and begin to thrive
at once, very much to the surprise

terS, GOeS not dpprGCiaDty influence the
blood pressure, ard is without action on
the liver and kidneys. The urine re-
mains normal. free from albumen and
blood pigment. Verona! is not q diuret-
tc. as its chemical relation to urea might
suggest. To this immunity from bad
effects on the vital organs is due the
great importance of %veronal. For it can
be given without hesitation and with ex-
cellent results in cases Of severe heart
disease with failing compensation, in
cases of phthisis, early or advanced, in
other pulmonary diseases, and in kidney
disease.
AS regards the induction of a "veronal
habit" Lilienfeld and others have never
found it necessary to increase the dose;
indeed, in most cases, it has been pos
sible to reduce'the dose after a few days,
and frequently a single moderate dose
of 0.5 gram has suficed to procure for
the patient a succession Of four or five
nights of good sleep. Berent. however,
found it necessary in some cases to in
crease the dose after a few days, or to
substitute some other hypnotic, such as
trional. for a few days. To conclude,
it seems clear that veronal is proving
to be a useful and apparently harmless
means of producing sleep.

TIE VIRTUES OF VERONAL.
A Slcep-Producing Drug Which to
ali Appearances Is Perfectly
Harmless.

Veronal, Observation-Disclosures, was
introduced by Fischer and Won Mering
as the result of a systematic investiga-
ton into the hynotic properties of GER
tain derivatives containing ethyl
groups. 1t is a colorless, crystalline
body, sparingly soluble in cold water.
readily soluble in hot water, says Alfred
G. Jordan, NJ. d., in the British Medical
Journal. 1t has a bitter taste, but no
smell. 1t is most conveniently given
in the form of "tabloids," or in the form
of chocolate tablets, which a be dis
solved in hot milk. Both the "tabloids"
and the chocolate tablets contain half a
gram each (seven and one-half gram)
of veronal.
1t has already been used in a large
number of cases of insomnia, and the
results have been published in the case
of more than 1000 patients, and in a
great variety of diseases, including pure
insomnia; various diseases. functional
and organic, of the central V sys-
TEN; acute febrile conditions; diseases
of the heart, lungs. kidneys, and liver,
even III tlNll uuOSl dhNanStd oAASto.
The doses used range from 0.25 gram
to 3.5 grams. In most cases a dose of
O.5 gram (715 gr.l has sufficed to produce
sleep within an hour, lasting. with per-
haps one or two brief Interruptions,
seven or eight hours. The sleep is in
distinguishable from natural sleep, and
the patient awakes feeling refreshed,
frequently speaking with enthusiasm.
The patients never complained of any
unpleasant after effects when it was
given in this dose. In some cases even
smaller doses we're found to suffice to
give the patient eight hours sleep.
This was the case in weak women suf-
fering from heart disease with failing
compensation, advanced phthisis and
diabetes mellitus respectively. Again,
in many cases where a patient had pre-
vlously received 0.5 gram veronal, it was
found possible to reduce the dose to one
half after a few days. No remote after
effects of any kind have been observed
TO follow the use of veronal. 1t has no

HOOK TIDE ANNIVERSARY.
It Was Popular Among the English
Previous to the Eighteenth
Century.

The Monday and Tuesday following
the second Sunday after Easter were, up
to the beginning of the eighteenth cen
tury, celebrated in England as popular
anniversary, called Hoke-Tide, or Hook
Tide, says Golden Days.
Tuesday was considered the principal
day. On that day it was the custom of
the women to go along the streets and
roads with cords, and bind all the men
they met, holding the captives until a
release was purchased by a small con-
ttibution of money.
On the Monday the men had proceeded
IN the same way with the women.

males, and have a privilege of taking a

These tuttimen carry long poles

blue streamers and surmounted with
oranges. The tuttimen are followed by

HOW JAPANESE WREsTLE.
Their Style Differs Materially from
That of the British and Amer
lean Wrestlers.

At the suggestion of the president,
'1ujitsu," as the Japanese system OF
self-defense is called, will probably be
adopted as a part Of the regular ath-
letic training of officers and enlisted
men in the army, navy and marine
corps, reports the Washington Star, of
recent date. Steps have been already
taken to introduce the art into the
naval academy. In a letter recently
SEN to the superintendent of that in
stitution, Rear Admiral Taylor, chief
of the bureau of navigation, says that
the president, having expressed a de-
sire that some attempt be made to
give instruction in expert Japanese
wrestling to the midshipmon of the
naval academy, with a view to the pos
sible adoption of this system as a par
of the regular athletic training OF
midshipmen, and if results are favor
able to enlisted men also, it is de-
sired that you take some steps imme-
diately in the direction indicated, as
it would be very desirable to have
some feat of this kind included in the
annual athletic exhibition if sufficient
progress can be made by them"
In accordance with this instruction
the superintendent of the naval acad-
envy has arranged to secure the serv-
ices of certain competent Japanese in
.structors nov in Washington TO give
midshipmen the desired instruction.
A short description of the Japanese
method of wrestling is contained in a
report recently made to the war de-
partment by Maj. oliver f. Wood, of
the artillery corps, a copy of which
was furnished the president and
formed the basis of his suggestion of
the desirability of its adoption as part
of the athletic training of future Off
GERS of the army and navy. Accord
ing to Maj. Wood the art of "jujitsu,'
although it resembles wrestling, diff
fers materially from the exercise as
practiced in England and in America.
strength with strength, but, rather, to
gain a victory by yielding to strength.
'"There are various ways of gaining
victory" says Maj. Wood, "such as
throwing heavily on the ground, chok-
Ing the throat. holding down on the
ground or pushing to a wall in such a
way that an opponent cannot rise up
or move freely, twisting or bending
arms, legs or fingers in such a way
that an opponent cannot bear pain,
etc. There are various schools, and
some of them practice all these meth
DDS, others only a few.
THE most important principle OF
throwing. as practiced, was to disturb
the center of gravity of an opponent,
and then pull or push in such a way
that the opponent cannot stand, exert
ing skill rather than strength, so that
he will lose his equilibrium and fall
heavily to the ground. A series OF
rules was taught respecting the differ
ent motions of feet, legs, arms, hands,
thighs and back in order to accom-
plish this object.
Choking of opponents throat was
done by the hands, forearms or twist
ing the collar of opponents dress
round the throat. For holding down
and pushing any part of the body was
used. For twisting and bending the
parts generally employed were the
arms, hands and fingers, and some
times the legs"
