SOME BENEFICIAL
EFFECTS OF TEARS
WHY IMMEDIATE RELIEF is FELT BY
THOSE WHO WEEP.

WHY IMMEDIATE RELIEF is FELT BY
THOSE WHO WEEP.
A rather original theory is proposed
by DR.. Waynhaum in recent book
noted writer in the Paris Cosmos
There is very close relation between
the circulations within and without the
Uranium. The blood of the brain COM
municates freely with that of the face.
These two circulations being largely
identical, the play of the facial muscles,
and the alternatives of congestion and
anemia that they produce diminish or
increase the volume of the intracrani-
cal blood. Their movements, consti-
tute what we may call emotional gri-
maces, are thus harmonious and useful.
The writer continues:
s'Then why do people weep? In
weeping the brain is deprived of blood,
Tears, Waynhaum says, act like a ma
tural bleeding process, which is the
more effective as it takes place in q
territory directly affecting the intra-
cranial circulation in its most delicate
part, that is, in the cortieal substance.
'FThe lacrymal gland, as we know, is
fed by the lacrymal artery, volumin
Gus branch of the ophthalmic artery
which itself belongs to the interna
carotid. When we weep, all the tear:
are furnished directly by the blood o
the lacrymal artery, that is to say, by
the blood of the internal carotid itself
Thus an abstraction of water, and o
albuminoid and chemical substances
at the immediate expense of the eere
bral blood, takes place in the act O.
shedding tears. This loss of serum pro
duces the effect of slight local loss o.
blood, dulling the centers to pain TO
some instants and bringing relief to th'
| weeper. This is the way in which
tears come to the aid of the suffering
soul through the Intermediary of the
superior centers.-Literary Digest.

The Sand-bag as a Warmer.

A sand-bag as a warmer is said to be
greatly superior to hot-water bottle,
which many people prize so highly.
Get some clean, fine sand; dry it
thoroughly; make bag about eight
inches square of flannel, fill it with the
dry sand, sew the opening carefully
together, and cover the bag with cotton
or linen cloth. This will prevent the
sand from sitting out, and also enable
any one to heat the bag quickly by
placing it in an oven OF on top of q
stove. The sand holds the heat for a
long time.-Health.
