MUSIC AS TooTHAcHE CURE.

1t is something new to learn that
music has power to soothe a man
with the toothache.
DR.. G. Norman Meachen. NJ. D..
said hat there was a recorded case
where the sufferer from toothache
became SO interested in a pianoforte
;,lo that nc forgot his aiImcnt and
became almost lively. The lectures
claimed that music was an impor.
tant factor in several other all.
incnts, for instance, insomnia There
we're several Instances on recor1
where slccplcssnpss had been cured
by means Of music. In 1896 {;
little child suffering from insomni;
was cured by means Of music wher,
all other mans had failed.
Continuing, DIR. Meachen said il
a chiefly in nervous disorders
mania, mclancholia and idiocy-
that music was most ctficacious, but
it had been known to reduce tho
temperature of IA patient suffering
from fever. Music had also the
power of distracting the attention
of the insane.

DUTY OF THE paovipsH.
Why the Task Of Man 10 Harder Than
That Of Woman.

Women are called unselfish as n
sex is il unsclfish to take the cas-
lest part of life and keep it be-
cause the law allows it? The eas-
lest part is to be without response
bility and to avoid thought. Many
women think that if they work very
hard in their homes, are saving and
careful, they have as hard a task
as their husbands. Such women are
ignorant of the meaning of respon-
sibility, and they have avoided
thinking about it too closely. II
they once had on their shoulders
the success or the failure of sup
plying their entire household, they
would appreciate that the hardest
work without that anxiety was an
child's play to the responsibility Of
meeting all these financial obliga-
tons comprehended as the duty OF
the provider, says the Pictorial Re-
view. :
1t is said that a woman is W
so happy as when she is getting a
bargain. Now, this impulse in
women to make a good trade" 10
get something for nothing, or for
very little, may shown thrifty man
agement, but, carried through
everything, does it not show a mean
spirit, or, at least, a selfish one?
For there cannot be a real return
made if a thing is got at any adj
vantage. To prevent workers from
being unfairly dealt with the 20
| operative work of the Consumers
league was instituted by some of
| those women who were unselfish
enough to assume responsibility and
| thought, some of them without
necessity or obligataion to do So
If / could persuade all our readers
/ to consider some of the serious and
important subjects that are being
written and spoken of they viii
commence to make return for all
the thought and effort the govern
ment has been put to in their be-
half. .

On The Line.

These awful gloomy days al
most make one weary of living.

ton have been higher than we

Well, some of these attorneys
have great skill in drawing out
testimony. Here is a sample /:
An old darkey in Chicago was
suing street car line for alleged
injuries. Show the jury how high
you can raise your arm, said his
attorney. With a great effort he
raised it feebly afew inches. Then
the companies attorney querried
Show the jury how high you could
raise it before you was hurt. With
eloquent and vigorous flourish he
raised it far above his head. He
lost his cash.

HAS 1900 AMERICAN IDOLS.
Rare Collection Took Seventeen
Years in Gathering.

l.. Bradford Prince, ex-governor
of New Mexico, has probably the
finest private collection of Indian
stone idols in the United States,
says the Kansas City Times. The
idols-1,500 of them-are stored in
Mr.. Princes home in Santa Fe, x
cepting some loaned to the National
museum in Washington and the
Metropolitan museum in New
York.
"My family says there isn't room
to turn around at our house for
the images" the ex-governor said,
l~aughingly, at the Coates house.
When asked if he could estimate
the value of his collection, which in
cludes many curios besides idols, he
shook his head.
cit took II years to gather all the
idols and cost a lot of money to get
them to Santa Fe," he said. "Some
of the larger one are made of pum-
ice and r very brittle. They had
to be sacked and carried carefully
over mountains to my home. They
were all taken from the ruins of an
cient cities, which are scattered over
New Mexico. The largest is five
and one-half feet tall and they
range down to tiny images. Many
present human figures, others are
in the form of animals, and all are
connected with the complicated
mythology still believed by the sur
vivors of these old peoples.
Gone scientist has said hat in
an are 80 miles long by 90 wide
in New Mexica there are more ru-
ms than in all Europe put together.
The latest report of the govern
ment bureau of ethnology, the TWEEN

Stevenson, of Washington, deals en-.
tircly with the pueblo of Zuni, in

WHEN FOOD BECOMES POISON.

If one were to say that thousands
of people regularly and almost sys-
tematically poison themselves with
food it would strike the average
layman IS ~extravagant. The opin-
ion of the layman, however, cuts 10
figure when compared with a scien-
tific deduction of one who has care
fully observed the facts.
How many people are there who
select their food with care, eat it
at the right time and in the proper
way to insure good digestion and
subsequent absorption of just the
physiologically correct amount of
nutriment required to repair the
waste incurred by the duties of
everyday life? There are very
few.
Some starve themselves, but the
great majority go to the other ex-
treme and constantly overeat. One
eats too much at regular meal times,
while another eats less, but feeds
more frequently. In either cas- the
digestive apparatus is overtaxed.
