Sick Headache
and Indigestion
The Former Is Very Frequently
Caused by the Other.

The pneumo- gastric nerve connects the stomach
region directly with the brain, and when the
stomach is out Of order the head is almost GER
tain to be affected through reflex or sympa-
thetic nervous irritation.
The headache Of dyspepsia and indigestion is
Of every variety from the dulIest and least de-
fined to the most acute pain. Sometimes the
whole mass OF the brain seems racked with an
guish; at others the ache is confined to the back
or front part Of the head. The first form ID
usually Of q confused character. and is often &C.
companied by dimness of vsion and a mild
vertigo, or socalled rush Of blood to the head -
The victims of this symptom complain of a
swimming or ''nghtness'' In the head and
dizziness. or a sensation Of motion while the
body is still, and specks or flashes Of light be-
fore the eyes.
Persons subject to indigestion and other forms
of stomach trouble are very frequent sufferers
from headache, and In numerous cases a sick
headache Is the only noticeable symptom Of in
digestion present; in Others there are stomach
manifestations well.
The majority OF people regard this headache
as q separate disease. instead Of symptom Of

PEARY MORE UNBELIEVABLE
His Speed Accomplishments More
Astounding Than Cooks.

From the Springfield Republican.
Putting aside all questions Of veracity.
and turning simply to the rather scanty
data brought forward by the two explor-
ers in their preliminary statements, the
most obvious thing. the thing which must
have struck every one first. is that all the
doubts Of DR.. Cooks record which have
rested upon his incredible speed fall to
the ground.
From this particular point Of view, in
deed. Cooks record Is the more plausible
and the more consistent. Compare the
two for example. from Cooks first ac-
curately determined point in "a degrees Of
latitude. about 420 statute miles from the
pole.
three days. Peary in twenty-seven But
Peary was held up for one day by open
water. and reports open water on three
other days, which must have caused
enough delay. supposing Cook to have
encountered no such obstacle, to make
the records nearly the same Moreover.
Peary seems to have taken a supporting
party as far as SO degrees: IL the two
parties tourneyed to that point together 1t
would probably have retarded progress in
the early stages.
Putting all these things together one
story is quite as credible as the other, so
far as the total time required to reach the
pole is involved.
In the distribution of time on the other
hand. if there is any irregularity 1t is
not to the disadvantage of DIR. Cook 1t
Is instructive to plot off the two courses
day by day from latitude 81 degrees as
signing to each day approximately the
average distance in statute miles for it's
section of the route as fixed from time
to time by astronomical observations:

that comparatively unknown man like
DR.. Cook had asserted that after getting
to latitude SO degrees, 40 miles from the
POLE doing ten miles, fourteen miles. six
teen miles, twelve miles a day. he had
suddenly made such an unprecedented
burst of speed. going to the pole at the
rate of thirty-five miles day. and re-
turning Immediately. apparently at an
even swifter pace, since the whole return
from the pole was made in the amazing
time of sixteen days, against twenty-seven
for the upward journey.
Would not the world have said, and per-
haps with reason, that the explorer had
lost his reason and had imagined q week
of wonderful achievement which he re-
ported to his supporting party? The case
might easily have happened SO: it is for
tunate that the more incredible tale Is
brought by the traveller whose fame is
established beyond cavil.

To Investigate Retreat

An investigation is about to be
started by States Attorney Charles IA
Williams who believes that he may
materially reduce court and state ex.
penses by conducting a more rigid eX-
animation into the condition OF per
sons committed to the Brattleboro re-
treat. Al present, according to tle
statutes, a person committed to an in
sane asylum Immediately becomes a
state charge; whereas if he or she Is
not committed, the town Is obliged to
stand the expense of supporting the
Individual. lie believes tAtJ while
some OF the people committed are in
sane, the greater majority are not and
should be town rather than state char
ges.
Recently Mr.. Williams in his offic-
ial capacity, was called upon to inves-
tigate three cases comnitted to the re-
treat from Brattleboro in one day
Since he became states attorney the
number of commitments from Brattle-
boro totalled IL and he conceived the
idea of finding out whether the entire
population of BraSleboro was being
railroaded into the retreat as state
charges. He felt he had reasonable
grounds for suspicion, upon personal
investigation that there are some
there who are not insane. Believing
the matter is one for tle state super
yisors to investigate, which is the only
redress the state has he has laid it be-
fore the board consisting of DR.. f. Il.
Steele of Montpelier, DR.. G.. S. Foster
of Putney and Or. X. M. Pelton of
Richford. The states attorney will
proceed under the statute which gives
him a right to investigate as to wnet-
her person conon!tted to either the
state asylum at Waterbury or the re-
treat in Brattleboro is a state or a
town charge.
Mr.. Williams in speaking of the mat.
ter was inclined to think that the com
hitting of person to the retreat by
the simple process of observation up
on the part of two physicians might
tend to commit a person TO the insti-
tuition when there was some doubt as
| to whether the person was suffering
from malady other than insanity.
That the states attorney intends To
have the board investigate the matter
without the aid of official WhiteWash
is apparently from an intimation made
| by that official that the attention of
State. Auditor Graham will be particu-
larly called to bills in the Specific ca
ses in which he has called for an in
vestigation before the retreat is paid
He did not outline the course that he
intends to pursue but was decidedly
emphatic in stating that he believed
that not only in Brattleboro but in
other towns in the state persons we're
being committed to the retreat as
state charges who are really town
charges.-BelloW Falls Times.

Judging from the editorial comment
that has followed the Jim Crow" ar.
ticle in the Burlington Free Press in
regard to the black troopers at Fort
Ethan Allen, it Is likely that the CON
temporary would gladly have recalled
the item at the expense of good
many dollars per word.-Rutland Her
aid
AS We understand the situation the
Free Press did not editorially say any
thing derogatory to the colored troops
but rather the reverse. Is it not true
that the Free Press as a matter OF
news told the truth in regard to SEN
timent and its expression in Burling-
ton? OF course there are a few papers
and few individuals that cannot un-
derstand and appreciate this attitude
and aim to the conscientious newspa.
per to give the facts and let the peo-
pie judge for themselves. Whatever
the criticism, whatever the selfishness
of small minds that dread exposure of
their provincial shortcomings, the
Free Press did right and can afford
to suffer some fault-fnding from those
willing to be wrong but who hate to
be caught at it. The Free Press isn't
at blame for the facts as they exist.
If the Burlington public is ashamed of
its attitude it is matter for the pub
lie to correct and not expect the Free
Press to hide or distort for the bene-
fit of local self complacency.
