quent among girls who think great
deal and have a highly nervous tenn
permanent than among the girls who
treat life lightly and do not worry.
The very active girl who gets plen-
ty of exercise is usually free from
them.
There are two well-known types
of schoolgirl headache.
The first and most common one,
perhaps, is the indigestion headache.
It's chief causes are insufficient or
unsuitable foods, the candy and pas
try habit and Incidence. The cure for
this is plain, wholesome food at reg
ular times and proper exercise in the
open long enough to Offset the-hours
of study and confinement in the
schoolroom.
The second type of headache is
the sick" headache.
1t gets this name from the fact that
it is accompanied with a constant
nausea or sickness at the stomach.
With the schoolgirl, this headache Of
ten begins in the morning as soon as
she wakes from a heavy sleep. She
feels an intense pain in the temples,
which sometimes extends to one eye.
The hands and feet get clammy. She
has an offensive breath and coated
tongue.
The remedy is a gentle emetic,
which will cause vomiting without
too much strain. Then give the
stomach a good rest and the head
ache will pass off naturally.
To sum it up, the schoolgirl with
the headache is very often the girl
whose diet is not plain enough or
whose supply of exercise and fresh
air is lacking.
We cannot expect the schoolgirl
to know this unless she is taught.

lished an account of it in a recent
number of the Smithsonian Collec-
tiOnS.
y In the course of research work in
Siberia and Mongolia, DR.. Hrdlicka
came upon a large number of natives,
mixed with the heterogeneous races
of that region, who were evidently the
direct descendants of another and
more ancient raee-a stone-age race.
These people resemble so closely
the American Indian that, in some
cases, if dressed in the costume of
the latter, even a skilled anthropoIog-
ist would take them for true Indians!
Moreover their customs, and mental
characteristics are exactly those with
which we are familiar among the
redskins.
And so. after careful study of these
people, DR.. Hrdlicka has came to the
opinion that there exist today over
large parts of Eastern Siberia, and in
Mongolia, Tibet, and other regions in
that part of the world, numerous re-
mains of an ancient population which
was physical identical with, and in all
probability gave rise to the Ameri-
can Indian!
This theory is not entirely new
among anthropologists as theory,
pure and simple. But DIR. Hrdlicka is
the first scientist actually to go over
to Asia and to discover for himself
the meat in it. The result of his ex-
petition is, he says, proof positive
that the American Indian is Asiatic!

SCHOOLGIRL COMPLAINT

SCHOOLGIRL COMPLAINT
The headache, is the bugbear of
the girl at school!
There are several reasons for this
schoolgirl complaint.
They are so simple and so easily
remedied that we wonder, when at
tention is called to them, that we
have not thought and acted before.
One of the commonest causes is
shortsightedness. An equally COM
mon one is farsightedness.

EAT EARLY GREENS.

The spring time is the best
time to change your diet, in fact
it is necessary that we do change
our diet at this time Of the year;
instead of eating hot breads,
griddle cakes, quantities of pota-
toes, macaroni, rice, rich pud-
dings, pies and cakes, cereals
loaded with sugar and other ex-
cessive sweet and starchy foods
all good in their places, but as
a general rule used indiscrimi-
nately, it is proper that early
greens, vegetables and bulky
foods, such as spinach, cowslips
and dandelions be used freely.
Spinach has been termed by the
French the broom Of the
stomach, because it is so bulky
that it sweeps thru the alimen-
tary tract, stimulating the secre-
tons of the juices, scraping the
walls and carrying all waste with
it.
Of all the digestive organs the
liver is the busiest; it has been
named the clearinghouse of
the body" for it is there that
much of the cleansing of the
blood is done.
When it is understood that
every time a heavy food is eaten
out of place the organs become
overtired it may easily be seen
why too much starch and too
many sweets finally clog the
liver, causing bile to accumulate
and bringing about biliousness,
administration, indigestion and
often malaria.
The onion it is claimed is in
valuable in malaria because of
its pronounced action on the
liver. In the latter days of
April asparagus comes d time
when the kidneys need flushing
or stimulation, in order to carry
off the body wastes; and as it
possesses marked dieretic pro-
perties it has a distinct place in
the spring dietary.
So eat early greens plenty of
them they're cheap and health
fill.

The EASTER Eco.
Its Origin and Many Pretty Leg
ends and Folk Tales.

nmwM HE origin Of the Easter egg
seems to be a good deal Of a
puzzle. Archaeologists have
traced it back to ancient Egypt,
where the egg was regarded as an
emblem of creation. The. Hebrews
adopted it to symbolic the idea of their
emergence from bondage, and the
Christians later on took it up as an en-
blem of the resurrection The egg APP
pears to have been regarded anciently
also as emblematic Of the world, which,
according to very old tradition, was
Matched out or created at Eastertide.
The druids used it In their ceremonies,
and the Persians of old gave eggs to
each other at the feast Of the vernal
equinox in honor of the springtime re-
newal of all things. All these notions
run together-the egg standing for the
beginning of all things, for the origin
Of life and for reproduction 1t repre-
sents fecundity and abundance, and
when one friend presents an egg to an
other 1t is supposed to contain and car
ny with it all blessings.
Easter is the festival Of springtime
rejuvenescence. 1t goes far back into
pagan mythology and has merely been
adopted by the moderns In a fresh
guise The ancient Roman year began
at Easter, and gifts were then exchang-
ed to celebrate the season Of promise
and fair commencement Indeed, even
In those days, long before the birth Of
Christ, the Romans gave each other
eggs, and they held games at which
eggs were bestowed as prizes.
An ancient tradition of the Firms re
fers the origin of the Easter egg to a
mystic bird, which laid an egg In the
lap of the Creation goddess. She hatch
ed It In her bosom, but let it fall into
the water, when 1t broke, the lower
part of the shell becoming the earth,
the upper part the sky, the liquid white
portion the sun, the yolk the moon and
the fragments of broken shell the stars
in the heavens In Russia at the pres

/ EGG FLOWERS FOR FAvORS

Egg flowers make very pretty SOU
venirS for chfld's Easter party and
also form a unique bouquet for the
center of the table. They are made by
puncturfng the egg and making hole
In one of the sides and then blowing
until the egg is completely emptied.
Little faces bearing different express
sions are painted on the other side.
Then the flowers are made This is
done by winding green Grape paper
around the hat Until firm stem is OBJ
tained from Which small green leaves
wired down the back spring forth at
distance of a few inches apart The
flowers, which may be scarlet, pink,
white or variegated, are made from
leaf shaped pieces of Grape paper,
wired SO that they will bend at will.
Wires that run down the back of the
petals are twisted around the top OF
the stem, and the egg is glued firmly
In among the center of the petals.

Dainty Easter Gifts.

The daintiest kind of floral Easter
gifts can be made by the girl with deft
fingers. One young woman earns
quite a reputation and considerable
pocket money aby making flower pin
cushions. She buys fairly good sized
fower-say a rose, for instance-cuts
two pieces of cardboard the size of the
flower, covers them with silk of the
same shade or one harmonizing with
1t and then fastens the flower to the
back Of the cardboard and sticks row
of pins around the edges of the paste
board Another Easter gift consists Of
a small fat cushion filled with sawdust
and good allowance Of sachet. 1t is
covered first with satin, then with fine
muslin, and is set in the midst of a
wreath of tiny rosebuds. The effect
is charming, and the cushion is very
easy to make.

THE SPRING RESURRECTION

LIFE IS VISIBLY RELEAS-
ED, and we are eyewitnesses of
creation at work. We see the
earth touched with colors, and
greenness sweeping over the
land. Now the wayside flowers
spring up, rained upon and glad
of the sun. And the eye Of man
is gladdened by intervale and
fertile field, and the long green
lanes of linden. Not all the get
hered SHOWS and Furnishing winds
can thwart this coming of the
spring. All the tides Of being
are rolling in to the flood. Now
there returns the wildness that
leaps at life as a hunting dog let
loose from the leash. The breezes
tumble down from the great hills.
Their cool has been nourished in
the rich green pines, and has
lifted off the hidden mounds Of
snow in dark ravines. All the
spacious spread of lawn and
meadow, white sea-lapped beach
and lifting hill is vibrant. The
land that was full of loneliness
is quick with life, and thought
the fresh morning there moves a
keeneyed joy. But,what we wit
ness in the silent upspringing Of
the wayside and forest is reveal
ed to-day in the heart of man.
We, too, are in a springtime,
blown upon by fresh winds.
That marvellous and many-hued
spectacle of the busy spring is
but the garment of the GoDAwho
works through the thoughts of
men and touches them torenewal.
The bleak ages have gone, and
the race of men itself is visibly
planning a resurrection. Out of
the dust of its dead things it
rises to fuller life. Its ancient
enemies are in retreat. Hate is
dying, proverty is passing, the
disinherited have found a voice.
As out of stormy night, we
draw near a light and warmth
for men.

happen to notice one Of your
customers venturing into a COM
petitor's place of business. Re-
member this is a free country;
that your customer may continue
to be a valuable asset, even
though he deals occasionally with
a competitor who, perchance,
may be an enemy of yours.
This steady customer may have
great respect for your competi-

RABBITS EGGS.
emit time millions on millions of eggs
are used as gifts at this season Of the
year, friends exchanging them and
servants presenting them to their mas

eggs for Easter gifts-surely not very

Three centuries ago la Europe Pasch
eggs, as they were called, were given
at the churches to the priests on East
er Sunday, when, after being sprin-
kled with holy water, they were bless
ed. To ornament such eggs with rich
designs and figures Of saints became
an important branch of art among the
monks of those days, and there are
still extant q number of choice old en-
cravings of these gorgeous eggs, which,
after they had been blessed, were eaten
with great ceremony on Easter day.
Some Of them were sawed in two very
delicately and lined with gold leaf. In
Venice gentlemen presented eggs to la
dies at the festive season with their
portraits painted on them, while in Ger
