SIMPLE Guns FoR NEuRALeIA.
II on Left Side Of Face Put Right
Hand In Hot Water and Vice Versa.

A simple method Of curing facial
neuralgia is given in the Indian Re-
view. If the neuralgia is in the right
side of the face the left hand should
be placed in q basin of water as hot
as can be borne. Or If neuralgia is on
the left side of the face then the right
hand should be placed In the hot wa
ter. It is asserted that in this way re-
lief may be obtained in less than five
minutes.
The explanation is that the two
nerves which have the greatest num-
Der OF tactile nerve endings are the
fifth and the median nerve. AS the
fibres Of these two nerves cross, any
impulse conveyed to the left hand will
affect the right side Of the face, or II

the left side OF the face. This is on
account Of the crossing OF the cords.

The only difficulty about this move
ment is that persons who sign these doc

law, from signing those for any other
candidate Tor governor, or they will
thereby commit misdemeanor. The
present movement IS little premature,
as there are many insurgents who favor
the nomination of Hon. George B. Win

SO that those who sign for the professor
cannot change their allegiance later to

that $o,o66,6I5 cigars were manufactured
during the year, for the government re-

gars, it is, estimated, retailed at Z cents
each on an average. Cigar men estimate
that the retail cigar trade of the Dakotas
will exceed the home manufactured pro-

knives and lratchets and the six dead
men were literally hacked to pieces.
That the men fought among themsel-
YES and were not murdered by outSid-

though the police are OF the opinion
that there are two Or three men still
at large who were concerned in the
tragedy.

were found in the room where the dead
mer were found by the police this fore
noon, giving evidence that every man
was armed with some sort OF wea-

robbery as much money was found un-
touched.
