II You suffer from Headache.

Many suffer needlessly from head
ache. 1t is not a normal condition and
unless due to some functional disorder
or to defective eyes usually can be
traced to overeating@ or to sleeping in
badly ventilated rooms.
Be careful about your diet, take
plenty of exercise, do not overstrain
your eyes; above all get plenty of
fresh air and your headaches are apt
to vanish.
Never sleep in room that has not
at least one window up high, winter
and summer. 1t will not do to ven
tilate from the next room or the hall;
what is needed is air fresh f,om out
of doors.

friend living in the town through

ter to him, with her savings, would
have enabled him to buy at a low
price the land the road needed, and
the peculiar nature of the ground IN
that neighborhood would have en-
abled him to sell at great profit
She did not consider the thing more

1t would be a dishonorable thing to
do. Another stenographer in large
real estate Office became aware of a
deal In which $150,000 was involved.
Certain information she possessed
would be worth thousands to the other
parties. They made a few advances
and limited at rewards as high as
$4,000 for her betrayal Of her firm.
She Indignantly refused, and told her
employers of the scheme. Another

copies of three letters which she had
written. A lawsuit in which her en-
ployers were involved might have
gone against them had the opposing
party been able to secure the in

"Gentlemen,'' said a man on the rear
platform of the street car to five or six
others of us, there is to be no more
hard times. The last of the panic has
vanished"
How do you make hat out?" was
asked.
Il saw Bryan at Denver and had a
long talk with him. In fact, 1 went
there for the purpose. We sat down
like two old chums, and I told him that
times were so tight in the East that
many of us couldn't get a glass of beer
a week. He Is going to establish one
thousand free breweries as soon as he
takes his seat.
Then l told him about the high
price of meat. He doesn't eat 1t, and
had heard nothing about It. He
promptly said, however, that he would
put the best porterhouse steaks into
market from his farm in Nebraska at
eight cents a pound. He said seven at
first, but 1 told him we'd gladly pay
eight.
Then I told him how potatoes and
other vegetables had advanced, and
he promised to look into the matter at
once. l suggested the hanging of about
a hundred farmers and two hundred
grocers as a great moral lesson, and
he said he would think of 1t seriously.
Then I old him that shoes had
jumped fifty cents a pair in the last
year, n he could hardly believe it.
He is going to furnish a million cow
hides and open a hundred shoe fac
tories, and you'll see the price drop to
a dollar a pair.
"And, lastly, l told him about the
scarcity Of money with US, and he
made a memorandum on a piece Of
paper that he was to send a hundred
million dollars East mex day and have
trusty agents see that we all got our
share. Whoop! Hurrah! Anybody that
