| from Hongkong state that 100 lives
were lost and millions Of dollars
worth OF damage was done during the
| typhoon. A late official estimate
places the damage in the harbor Of
Hongkong at more than $1.000,000.

Comes Without Warning.
Although the barometer was low
Tuesday morning, there was nothing
to presage hurricane. Under ordi-

and the flooded highways blocked
with the wreckage.

Among the few ships in the harbor
which escaped damage is the Empress
of China.
The British steamer Monteagle is
ashore, but no casualties on her have
been reported.
The French torpedo boat destroyer
Froude was damaged in collision, and

A complete estimate of the damage
will not be pbtainable for weeks. No
Americans are reported to have been
killed or injured.

Sick
Headache

When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys-
tenn, centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom-
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
brain, resulting in loss of
memory, Inflammation, cpl
lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition by taking
Dr. Miles Arti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by sooth-
ing, strengthening and reliev-
ing the tension upon the nerves
not by paralyzing them, as
do most headache remedies.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills do
not contain opium, morphine,
choral, cocaine or similar drugs.
"Sick headache is hereditary in my
family. My father suffered a great
deal, and for many years l have had
spells that were so severe that [ was
unable to attend to my business affairs
for a day or so at a time. During a
very severe attack of headache, l took
