Many physicians think that the sore
ness and aching in the muscles which are
usually called muscular rheumatism are
really not rheumatism at all, but neural
gia. For this reason they prefer TO call
the affection by it's other name, myalgia,
which means nothing more than muscu-
lar pain 1t probably belongs. neverthe-
less. 20 the indefinite group OF diseases

IN persons who have other rheumatic or
equity troubles. or In whose family these
affections prevail: and It Is excited by

cretions I'm eating or drinking-that are

Any or all the muscles may be the seat
OF myalgia. but those most commonly
affected are the muscles of the neck, OF

while IN persons OF middle life the mus

dreaded by those who have had previous
attacks, as lumbago.
When the chest muscles are affected. or
the sufferer has "a stitch in the side,' or
pleurodynia, the pain may be so acute as

SORE MUSCLE TREATMENT
Different Forms of Muscular Rheumatism Where
Rest Is Essential

The internal treatment is the same as
for rheumatism Of the joints, which Is
another argument in favor OF the belief
that the two forms are essentially the
same and due TO the same cause.
The pain may be relieved by dry heat.
The old-fashioned treatment Of lunbago
by ironing the back is good, although a
hot-water bag OF hot brick will do just
as well, without the disturbance that the
movement Of the iron causes.
Perfect rest is essential, and this may
sometimes be secured by bandaging the
affected part snugly

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

The are fanatics on the race suicide
subject who say exceedingly silly things.
They declare that every wife should be
mother. and when forced TO acknowl-
edge that the thing is sometimes impOs-
sible, they demand that childless wives
shall adopt stray children and act a
mothers part The ancestry Of the,chll-
dren does not matter 10 those who do not
have to adopt them but it might be ex-
pected 10 have some interest for the
women who are 10 devote themselves to
the care Of waits.
A great deal has been said about the
care and affection given to dogs, and
most Of it is disagreeable. Why should
not woman deprived OF children avail
herself Of the pleasure and comfort Of
dog companionship? Nobody says any
thing about the man who owns a dog and
makes a companion Of him, but women
are condemned where men are tolerated
There is no great chance Of Indebtedness
In loving q dog. because canine loyalty
and affection are proverbial. and a dis
appointing animal can be banished. In
adopting children. there IS no certainty
Of peace and happiness. for mother love
Will bear all things without retaliation
The awful things real mothers are
called upon to bear are not calculated
TO make any woman desire to assume the
charge Of strange babies. Rebellion is
in the air, which feeds infant lungs. and
rudeness, which seems appalling TO
| strangers, IS smiled upon by dodng
IsOthers. The fact we face each day is
/ this: Children have Al exaggerated idea
OF their own Importance and a contempt
| FOR their elders Both sentiments are
on perpetual exhibition.

then scampered to the floor, and the
women took to the high places on the
seats. The brakeman made a hurried
search for Miss Mishells pet, but he
was unable to find It. Miss Mishell
looked daggers at the other women all
the way to Montclair.

Even In the village of Aufen, with
only 220 inhabitants. there are 1853
acres of timber lands. This gives
1000 board feet of frewood to each
citizen. and the $4,000 board feet of
timber sold nets more than $1,400,
which is sufficient for all expenses OF
the little community.
These advantages of public forests
could be multiplied to the number of
every community having them. Ac-
cording to the very latest report, the
various German states having produc-
tive communal forests are: Prussia,
6,309,109 acres; Bavaria, 2,041. $50

Washington. - Declaring that the
worlds soils are to-day a greater
storehouse OF fertility than they ever
were, Prof. Milton Whitney, chief of
the soils bureau in the department of
agriculture. in a bulletin Just issued,
takes stand in direct opposition to
the view of many writer's that soils
are gradually wearing out.
Prof. Whitney states that a study Of
the record for the past 40 years will
show that the average of crops Is in
creasing. particularly in the older
states, where the soil has been worked
the longest. There has been, he states,
an increase Of two bushels In the aver
age yield of wheat per acre in the past
40 years. although the yield of corn
has decreased one-half bushel.

professor, but. what is more start
ling, they are producing considerably
heavier yields than the soils of the

He adds that an examination of rec
ords shows that the leading European
nations are not only producing greater
crops now than at an earlier period,
but the crops are larger than those
produced by the comparatively new
soils of the United States.
