Your snob and your savage abhor
it. In Mesopotamia the wild Bashi-
bazoOk wears a belt, in Yucatan
the Indian wears a girdle of sharks
teeth, in Senegambia the shameless
cannibal sports a gunny sack, in
Atlantic City few years back the
dudes used to wear sashes. But
find man who when he throws off
his coat to begin his daily toll lays
bare a pair of heavy, sky-blue gal
luses and you'll find man who pays
his way in the world, loves his wife,
rears his children in the fear of the
Lord and votes the straight ticket.
Here is simple method of cur
ing facial neuralgia: If the neuralgia
is in the right side of the face the
left hand should be placed in a
basin of water as hot as 1t can he
borne. Or if neuralgia is in the
left side of the fac then the right
hand should be placed in the hot
water. IL is asserted that in this
way relief may be obtained in less
than five minutes The explana-
ton IS that the two nerves which
have the greatest number of tactile
nerve endings are the fifth and
median nerve. AS the fibers of
these two nerves cross any impulse
conveyed to the left hand Will affect
the right side of the face, or if APP
piled to the right hand will affect
the left of the face. This is on ac-
count of the crossing of the cords.
More than 1000, 900 pieces of
mail went astray in these United
States last year because they were
not directed even well enough for
the experts to deci pher the names
and addresses. Millions Of this i'm
mense total went to the dead letter
office, where lot of it was opened,
the addresses of the writer's ascer-
tanned and the letters or packages
returned. But in a good many
cases the writer's address is never
found and the letter is really
dead" when neither the sender nor
the prospective receiver can be dis
covered. Assistant Post Master
General DeGraw wants to get peo-
pie into the habit of writing their
own addresses on the outside of en-
velopes. This, he says, would save
trouble for all hands.
