Manila may now be said to be up-to-

attention to progress in this direction
was the recent appearance upon the
streets of a motor car washed in mud

new record between the summer

blow at midday across the plain.

One never gets much sympathy for
neuralgia-nor seasickness, presum-
ably because they do not kill. But
people have died from the results of
seasickness and the list of those who
have been driven to suicide by neural
gia would be a startling one. Now
comes Dr. Rudolph Matas of New Or
leans with a statement that neuralgia
may be cured by injections of alcohol
into the nerve ganglions at the base

cry justifles the hope that the tri-

ASTORS' TRADE DAYS
Post Stand Century Ago Comes
Again to the Family.
Ranchers of the North Platte Valley
Are Interested in a Somewhat
Curious Chain Of
Events.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-A little.known ro-
nance OF the Astor family is being
told among the ranchers Of the North
Platte valley, where the old original
John Jacob Aston had fur-trading
post just a century ago.
The first link in the chain was
forged by the Aston traders in 1912
The second was created when young
William II. Force came to Wyoming
thirty years ago and purchased a
ranch upon which were the remains of
the old Aston trading post. The third
has to do with the time when Kate
Talmadge of New York came to visit
Forces sister and remained to marry
the brother, the courtship taking place
around the old trading post. The fourth
link was the birth of little Madeline
Force Other links are the marriage
Of Madeline Force and John Jacob AS
tor and the probable return of the old
Aston trading post site to the great
great-grandson of the original Aston,
himself bearing the name of the found
er of the American family.
A century ago last December seven
trappers, headed by w. Price Hunt,
who was returning overland from AS
toria, Ore, stopped on the North
Platte river. built winter quarters and
opened a trading post. They all wore
the insignia of the American Fur com
pany, the Astor concern. That post
was the property of John Jacob Aston
and remained so until it was deserted
by the trappers in the spring of 1878
when the men loaded their furs in
