ONLY NERVOUS

The sufferer from Neurasthenia (lack
of nerve force) frequently places him
self in the 'only nervous" class. Let
us see why he is nervous. That born
tired" feeling becomes chronic. Every
little exertion of mind or body is fol-
lowed by fatigue out of all proportion.
He has great deal of headache and
frequently has backache. All manner
of vague sensations, such as heat, cold,
prickling, numbness, stiffness, soreness,
pain and pressure felt in limbs or any
par, of the body. Eyes seem affected,
sounds and smells may become exag-
ger;ited and any slight surprise pro-
duces a real nervous shock. He has

tite and constipation, or diarrhtea is COM
moiL There is palpitation of the heart
or pains around the heart annoy and
distress the poor sufferer, who becomes
from these accumulated troubles full
of anxiety and fear. These sensations
become symptoms of disease and in
tim. the symptoms become chronic and
if permitted to run their course, lead
the victim into maladies which break
down the nerve force so that he or she
is Unfit for work or pleasure. For the
mali or woman so afflicted to think there
is nothing the matter is a serious in
justice and great injury.

There were many Austrlans who felt at the time
Of the seizure Of Bosnia and Herzegovina that
their government was making mistake. Aehren-
thai had risked European to obtain what
these considered a nominal advantage. He OBJ
tanned it without fighting, but in doing so he
impaired Austrian relations with Russia. Great
Britain and Turkey lie aroused suspicion Of
Austrian policy without really making Austria
any more powerful. In an article in the "Zukunst"
at the time Hermann Bahr after praisiug Aehren-
thai as the greatest Austrian statesman since
Andrassy. asked "Will he have the same luck the
second time as he had at frst?' For nothing is
clearer than the fact that the consequences Of
such an act do not and not stop with the act
itself What reasons had Aehrenthal powerful
enough to persuade him thus to set events in
train: The French and English friends Of Austria
could not understand it. The new policy seemed TO
them to be fatal TO the best interests Of the Dual
Monarchy Austria's domestic difficulties, 10 was
pointed out, should have made her especially
anxious to maintain the sanctty Of treaties. The
case was thus put al the time by a well known
authority:
"Why does Austria repudiate the principles
which, in common with England, she so firmly in
sisted in 1878? To urge that the annexation Of
Bosnia and Herzegovina is only matter Of IN
