"GrowinH Pains"

"GroW1nH Palms..
The evil that may be caused by
phrase is well exemplifed by the term
growing palms." Many a cripple to-
day owes his misfortune to the fact
that the first symptoms of his disease
were misinterpreted. The recurring
pains of which he complained, which
caused him to limp at times or to CRY
out in his sleep, we're called by his par
ents growing pains, and were thought
to signify nothing more than the effort
Of nature to adjust the growing bones
and muscles and sinews to each other.
OF course every child has innumer-
able little aches and pains, the result OF
fatigue, slight sprains, stone bruises.
and the like, and it is we'll that fond
parents should not take too much no
tice of them, lest they foster disposi-
ton in the child to worry over illnesses.
The cause of such occasional pains ls
usually apparent, and nights rest or
day in the house will dlspel 1t. But
when the pain recurs from time to time
without evident cause, or when ordl-
nary romping during the day is follow
ed by night of aching, and is perhaps
limp for a day or two, it is possible
that there Is some serious underlying
cause, and the family physician should
be consulted.
Frequent complaint of pain In the
knee is one of the signs Of beginning
hip disease, but examination shows the
knee to be apparently sound, ana ~
the home diagnosis of growing pans is
made, and the real trouble in the hip
Is overlooked, often until it Is too late
TO prevent permanent lameneSS.
Although not called growing pains,
repeated attacks of stOmach-ache In
children should not be sighted, for they
may be symptom Of early spinal dis
eaee. The complaint Of pain in the
stomach, when not referable to green
apples or a surfeit Of pastry, especially
when the complaint Is made at the
close of the day or during the night,
should indicate the necessity Of care
ful examination Of the spine. Growing
pnlns may be due to rheumatism, which,
If not detected and correctly treated,
may lead to disease Of the heart.
A less serious trouble, but one de-
handing medical treatment, which may
cause an aching in the limbs, Is ma
lara. This Is a dangerous diagnosis,
for if incorrect it may be as serious in
it's consequences as that of growing
pains, and even II the child has had an
unmistakable attack of malaria. the
parent should not be content with that
explanation of its aches and pains but
should refer the matter to the doctor.
1t should always be remembered that
growth Is a normal process, and should
no more be accompanied by pain. than
digestion or breathing.-YOuth's Com

different from any other part of the en-
pire. We have practically self-gov-
erning province. The people are all
soldiers. This Is one Of the first re-
Quirements for children. The province
of Ferghana, In which Khokan Is To-
Gated, is a vast mountainous country,
and only the hardy riders Of my coun-
try could live there. This is what
makes them among the finest soldiers In
the world, and what brought about the
promotion of almost every one Of them
who served in the Russian war against
the japanese. One of our most famous
products is silver work. In the fac
tories the rarest KIND of things are
produced and the art of the goldsmith
lie carried to perfection. There is much
commerce, but 1t Is carried on with the
surrounding countries.
Mining for gold, silver, copper and
iron Is carried on quite extensively
and 1t keeps the cities fourishIng. At
the present time the country is overrun
with wandering Kurds, who do nothing
but loot for their living. Plans are
now on foot to run railroads through
the country, and this will have a good
effect. The mixed population of the
province makes 1t hard to keep every
thing running smoothly In the govern
ment, but as practically all power Is
in the hands Of the native people there
is seldom any complaint. This prov
ince Is not represented in the Russian
dOuma, as 1t is considered unnecessary,
owing to the fact that we have every
thing we want

ed the Russian contingent for the re-
lief Of Picking, and was the first Rus
sian officer to enter Tientsin. When
the campaign ended Stocssel was made
a major general and was stationed at
Port Arthur and began strengthening
the works there, little dreaming that
within a few years he would have to
defend them against the legions of the
mikado, and when the war with Japan
broke out he was made commander of
the fortress. The general was born Mt
Orenberg fifty-seven years ago, his
father having been prominent mer-

the colors became noted as serious

tunnels to Brook
Ign under the East river, and the Bel
mont tunnel, which Is being laid under
the same estuary. No such extensive
tunneling of this sort has ever been
projected elsewhere.
Charles NJ. Jacobs, who, as engineer
in charge, has built the four "McAdOo"
tunnels, now almost completed, and
who now has charge Of the PennSylva-
MIA tunnels under the Hudson river
has often been called the foremost tun-
mel builder in the world. He Is an Eng
lishman, rather more than 60, of strik-
ing appearance, a roundish face, q full
:nustache, bare top head and pleasant
manners. So far as America goes he
was discovered in London by the late
Austin Corbin Is or 16 years ago. when
the latter was planning system of
East and Hudson river tunnels that he
didn't live to see bored.
Corbin brought Jacobs to the United
States and he worked out the plans for
the tunnels which Corbln had In mind /;
that they were never dug was due to
10 fault Of Jacobs, but rather, posi-
bly,, to COrbin's death. Jacobs, how
ever, did the tunnel between Manhat-
tan and Astoria for the passage of gas
pipes When McAdoo and his hackers
got ready to take hold of the Hudson
rfver tunnels, now known by McAdoo's
name, which had been abandoned and
full OF water more than twenty years,
Jacobs was the man to take charge Of
the work as chief engineer and push
them through to completion.

Drinking of HeaIths.

The drinking of healths in wine or
liquor or other kinds originated in Brit
ain at the time of the rule of the Danes,
before Alfred the Great finally succeed
ed In driving them from the land. Ow-
ing to the assassination of Englishmen
by Danes, 1t became custom to enter
into compacts for the mutual preserva-

pacts were usually pledged In wine, and
hence the custom of drinking healths.
