SIGHTSEEING IS A STRAIN
Headaches Invariably Follow the Con-
slant Use OF Elevator Mus
cles OF the Eye.

Academy" or "sightseers " head
ache Is not uncommon experience, and
some recent observations OF Simeon
Smell, London, appear To throw some
light on its causation. Allowing that in
certain instances astigmatism or other
forms of ametropia is a factor IN its
production, he yet argues that there are
other influencing conditions. In sup
port OF this he quotes the experience of
= woman who always suffered from Sc
we're headache after visiting the the
alter when she had occupied a seat in
the pit. but was free from such disturb
Rnce when she sat in the dress circle.
In the first position, IL is pointed out,
sustained action OF the elevator mus
cles OF the eyeballs is required In order
to see the stage, and this is exactly
the action which is required in study
ing a collection of pictures. and more
especially in looking at those which are
hung above the line" The same ex-
perience has been noted by MIR. Smell.
in the case of cyclists. particularly OF
those who lean over the handle bars
with the head lowered, and who. there
fore. in looking ahead keep the eyeballs
upward. A further argument Ia found
In the experience of miners nystagmus
which 1t Is suggested is due to weari-
ness OF the elevator muscles Of the eye
balls, caused by the constrained posi-
ton in which the miners work. There
can be no doubt Of the physiological fact
that lateral movement OF the eyebalIs
Is much more easy and requires less
muscular effort than movement in q
vertical plane. All this goes TO show
that muscular strain is involved in sus.
tanned upward movement OF the eve
balls. and this may well result in a sense
OF WEAKNESS or more pronounced dis
comfort

SHOCK BRINGS BACK VOICE
Physician Says That Electricity If
Judiciously Used Often
Restores Speech.

A young woman who had not been
able 10 speak for five years has recoy-
cred her voice through electricity. One
OF the hospital surgeons who operated
said: I'VE occasionally get patients who
are unable to speak. not through any
organic atlment. but simply because
they are In a hysterical condition. and
we often cure them by strong electric
shock AS rule they yell out. and then
they have no excuse for not being able
to speak. We do not suggest that such
patients have been shamming. They ac-
tually cannot speak. although there is
nothing wrong with their voice. They
are the kind Of patients who sometimes
go under Quack treatment and make re-
markable' cures. There is a good deal of
faith healing in this matter" Swedish
doctors having found minute pieces OF
enamel from granite" ware in cases OF
appendicitis. ii is surmised that the
common use OF this ware may have some
thing to do with the prevalence OF ap-
pendicitis.

AUovR FOR DRILLING SALT
Compressed Air Furnishes the Power
for Working the Device WHICH
Mines Mineral.

In Muskegon, Mich, salt Is used IN
large quantities, and, consequently, thu
warehouses OF the firms dealing in II
are eapacious enough TO store away q
considerable supply, says Technical
World AS Is well known, salt, on &C
count OF its affinity for water, Is a sub
stance that has tendency TO harden and
cake when piled away any length OF
time. and some OF the cellars where IL
Is stored contain beds OF IL 20 feet high
aud so hard that but little impression
can be made upon them even with the
pick or AK. For this reason a somewhat
curious device has been brought into use
TO loosen the material so that II can
readily be secured. This is large boz
ing tool, or augur, which is operated by
compressed air. The augur is mounted
on wheeled truck, which is guided by
handles projecting from the rear OF the
framework. The rear end OF the auguI
reyolyes in a socket fitted into the frame
work, while the air is admitted to the
socket from the hose which supplies II.
When operated the boring tool is pushed
against the mass OF salt and the augui
is set In motion and in a minute or two.
SO rapidly does the tool work, a hole
about five inches in diameter is made In
the formation the entire length of the
augur. Then another hole is drilled par.
allel with the first, and another, until
the pile has been undermined, so TO
speak, when its contents can easily be
broken out. The advantage Of this meth
cd is seen when IL is said that two men
can get out as much salt by the power
method as two dozen men by using picks
and shovels.

Opinion OF Jap Newspaper.

A Japanese newspaper, the Kyoi-

talking so much about the war and
teaching their pupils chauvenism. II
laments the fact that of los. 900 teach
ers In the public schools, &c. 900 have
been obliged to join the army. and
asks pertinently If it is not their supe-
rior education that has given the Jap
anese such an advantage over the Rus
SLAMS in the present war.

STAYS AGED WOMAN
COachman of Wealthy Mrs.
Ross Is Missing

MONTCLAfR. N. J.. Feb. 23.-Fol-
lowing the discovery of the body OF
Mrs. Hannah B. Ross, a wealthy octo-
generian, in the ruins Of her home on
High street today, the police express
ed the opinion that the woman had
been murdered and the house fired to
conceal the crime. A German coach
man, who was the only domestic en-
ployed by Mrs. Ross, has not been
seen since the fire. A search of the
ruins failed TO reveal any trace of his
body. Three adjacent houses also
were, destroyed in the fire, which start
ed in the Ross house.
Mrs. Ross made her will Saturday,
and it was witnessed by the coach
man. The house and the large collec-
tion of valuable furniture which it con-
tanned she left TO her adopted daugh-
ter, a Mrs Rupe, of Baltimore. Her
body was completely dressed. The po-
lice believ that if she was murdered
the fire was incendiary and the mo-
tive was revenge and not robbery. All
the woman's rings were found on her
fingers.

GROWL AT GILBERT
Architects Sheer at Mime.
sota'S Capitol

Special TO The Globe
MADISON, Wis, Feb. 23.-Minne-
sota's new capitol entered largely into
fierce discussion of the Wisconsin
state house plans by Architect Cass
Gilbert in a public legislative hearing
today. Ferry & Clas and Koch & Son,
firms of Milwaukee architects, who
were defeated by Gilbert for the $4,000
prize in the competition, attacked his
work. declaring he utterly ignored the
limitations of the programme of the
commission and planned a building
that could not be built for less than
$4,000, 900. They said the Minnesota
capitol was pretty. but not utilitarian;
a palace of art, but a failure for the use
designed.
Gov. La Toilette, Justices Marshall
and Winslow and other commissioners
defended Gilbert, reading letters from
Gov. Johnson and many Minnesota
state officers to the effect that the cap
itol was a model of convenience and
modernity as well as a monumental
architectural achievement.

SAULT STE. MARIE. Mich, Feb. %.
The great Clergue enterprise, the

pany, is to have a rival. The Edison
Sault Electric company is to COM

the st. Mary's rapids, near the locks.
1t will expend $4,000 the coming

appointed to take up the project of
constructing a permanent auditorium

be from the capitol to the White house
and up to K street. where the troops
will be reviewed by the grand marshal
and dismissed.
