Sometimes the pain seems OF an
acute rheumatic nature, occurring
on one side of the head or the

mistake Of associating the wrong
cause with the effect-in their
diagnosis. While go per cent of all
functional headaches are due to as
tigmatism, artificial light Is an i'm
portant factor which is often ignored.
The brilliancy and white light Of
modern electric illuminants is the

He laughed lightly, laid down some

Next morning, however, he was
able to leave his room. At once one
lady with three unmarried daughters
found an excuse for engaging him In
conversation. When he could escape
he walked slowly across to Miss
Vyne's window, followed by disap-
pointed glances. He was still pale,
but his eyes lit up at sight Of her.

comic distress, Miss Vyne could
not prevent the corners OF her mouth
from twitching. Then she flushed
slightly.
Here's some correspondence
which has arrived for you. Mr.. Goul-
ston," she announced formally.
"Er-exactly. Thanks very much"
He withdrew a pace with the en-
velopes, colliding with the manager
a. his elbow.

you think best; but don't say any

He retreated, and the young man
bent interestedly over hiss letters,
Progressing thus, he moved In the
direction of the billiard room, omit
ting. in an absentminded fashion, to
observe that several ladies were try.
Ing to attract his attention. Once
round corner, he passed out of their
line OF vision, but he could still see

grimace to indicate his Joy at having
escaped.

the smoking room for an hour, only
emerging when the lounge was COM
