Gastric and Nervous vertigo.

The most common forms of vertigo
are the gastric and the nervous. Gas
tric vertigo is sometimes induced by a
very slight disorder of the stomach.
The patient may feel sudden swim
ming at the head; objects may seem to
revolve; he totters and perhaps falls.
There may be nausea, faintness, head
ache, visual halluclnations and buzz
ing in the ears, but there is no deaf
ness nor any danger of loss of con
sciouSnesS. Gastric vertigo is cured
by treatment directed to the cause.
Nervous vertigo may come from
nervous exhaustion resulting from va
rious causes-lntelectual strain or an
immolerate use of tobacco, alcohol or
tea. The symptoms are much the same
as in gastric vertigo. They are felt
strongly IN an elevated pOsition-by
the preacher in the pulpit or the speak
er on the platform. As in gastric YER
tigO, the treatment must be directed
TO the cause. But patients need not
fear an attack Of paralysis or of apo
pleXy.

1t is foolish notion to suppose that
the ringing Of bells or "tanglng" of tin
pans will cause swarm of bees to set
tie. The real origin of this custom
dated back to the reign of Alfred the
Great, who in order to prevent dis
putes regarding the ownership of a
swarm, ordered that the owner should
always ring a bell when his bees
swarmed, and ever since then the good
farmers wife has been rushing out
with ringing bells whenever the bees
swarmed, and the fact that they set
tied verified, in her own mind, the be-
lief that the bell did 1t.

Woman's Hard Lot,

The treason of woman in Korea
is punished by poisoning. If a man
commits theft his property is con.
fiscated and his wife is sold as a
slave. For the desecration of the
graves Of ancestors the mother of a
culprit and all the female members
of his family are poisoned. Thus for
every offense of a man the innocent
female members of his family are
obliged to share the penalty with him.
Could any lot be more cruel than that
of being a woman in the far east?

where EGGS Are Currency.

Eggs are current coin in Mayo Ker-

everywhere received over the counter
in payment for tea, sugar meal, OIL
bread, tobacco, patent medicines and
general haberdashery. Accounts are
kept open and goods supplied ON credit
in eggs. Predatory agents travelling
through the wilds with worthless teas,
itlnerant thinkers and musicians, hawk
ers of tinsel jewelry and holy pictures,
all accept this current coin, generally

Neatness is Always Attractive.

The plainest woman is delight to
look upon If her toilet is one of ex-
quisite neatness in every respect. Her
hair must be done up securely and
not look as if it were ready to tumble
around her shoulders at any moment.
Her gloves must be always mended,
her boots in perfect condition and
never any tag ends at the bottoms of
her skirts. Most men know nothing
about fashion, but will notice whether
woman is neat or not, and is the
quality they most admire.

Two Years After.
The Chicago Record-Herald tells the

The Chicago RecOrd-Herald tells the
following story of a reporter:
He was going to New York. His old
city editor was there, and he believed
he could get work. Gibson walked un-
announced into the office Of the New
York Register. He asked for Il job.
The city editor looked up and reccg-
nized him. He was sorry, but his pay
roll was full to the limit. He would
talk to the managing editor and see ii
he could make room for him. The city
editor said thai Gibson was Il man
that could be depended upon. He was
put to work.
One afternoon he was handed 4
small clipping from an afternoon paper
which said that the captain Of a YES
sci then mOored at East Brooklyn had
shot a peculiar animal of the deep
which defied classification by natural
lists. The paper wanted a word-picture
of the animal, whatever it was.
Gibson met the captain of the ship.
They told story after story, and in the
course of a few hours both were con-
siderably the worse for indulgence.
While they were talking the vessel
cleared. When Gibson came to HIM
self he was far out to sea, the craft
| bound for India. He felt in his vest
| pocket. There was the clipping he
was told to look up Some months
later the little ship reached port. Glib
| son started for the cable office. Then
| he remembered his instructions OF
years before.
Never send in another story by
wire until you have asked how much
| we want of it,
He turned back toward the ship.
! Some weeks later it sailed for Hons
Kong, picked up cargoes that it took
it all over the Pacific, and finally
| rounded Cape Eorn, bound for New
York.
Two years later to a day Gibson
walked into the office of the Register.
The same city editor was at the desk.
He did not look up. Gibson tossed the
clipping in front of him.
Nothing in that story said tne
wanderer. 1.-The freak was only a sea
