When yen have tired kind of a
headache that has worn your nerves
to thin edge. try this treatment. Twist
your hair on top OF your head. undo
and remove your bodice. Get pan OF
hot water and sponge, and pass the
wet sponge over the back of your neck,
face and forehead for ten minutes.
Keep the water as near the boiling
point as you can endure it. Your flesh
will seem to be parboiled, but that
won't hurt it bit. Keep up the hot
water treatment till you are pretty
tired. then dry your face and neck,
rub them with a little white Vaseline
and lie down on couch for Fifteen min
utes. You will go to sleep in five, and
when you get up you Will laugh at the
idea of ever having had the headache

Mr.. J. Weber, of 1865 Vine street,

story of terrible skin suffering which
ended in robust health when he found
a remedy which cured him like magic.

continue to come. AT that time I had
as many as ten on my face. / was
such terrible sight that my friends

Minister of Public Instruction Nunzio
Nasi is made to suffer for administer
ing the governments yellow dog fund.
Nasi. a sicilian himself. and a
popular idol throughout Southern
Italy. is declared by his fellow Island-
ers to have been made q scapegoat for
men close to the throne. The feeling
against those who are pressing The
charges against him is intense and
there is every prospect that the ruling
powers will need all the troops they
can get to keep order If he is con-
demned as a sacrifice to. the interests
he says he has served.
Even i'm Rome, where the Senate,
sitting as a HIGH court of justice, is
trying him, there is much anger and
several fights have occurred between
the people and the military on guard
about the palace where the hearing is
in progress.
Nasi has placed the ministry, Of
which he was a member, in very
embarrassing position by his defense
that the money no is charged with TAX
ing from the treasury was used with
the Cabinets approval for political
purposes ana then entered under
travelling expenses. TO hide the real
purpose Of the disbursements,
Signor Lombard Nasrs former sec
retary who Is on trial with his former
superior, corroborates the latter's as
sertions. He says he knew the min
istry understood how the money was
being used. and had no idea that there
could be any question raised concern

The technical accusations against
Nasi and lombard are falsihcations
Of records and defrauding the treas
