Kioto, November 17.-The people of the empire are feasting and rejoicing over the coronation to an extent hitherto un- known in the history of Japan. The streets of Kioto last night were filled with paraders, dancing and singing. Men, Geisha girls and children wearing bur- lesque costumes and carrying paper lan- terms beat ancient drums and gongs. The scenes resembled those witnessed during the carnivals at New Orleans. Paris and Nice, except that they had an oriental setting.
 Foreigners were struck with the friend ly spirit displayed by the crowds In spite of the gaiety there were no signs of public intoxication and no disorder. The officers of the United States cruiser Saratoga who were not present at the third. coronation feast held tonight, were entertained by the mayor of Kobe at a Japanese dinner.

THE AMERICAN DISEASE

Neurasthenia may be called dis
tinctively American disease because
the condition Of nervous strain that
produces it is more prevalent here
than in any other country. Overwork
and worry, ambition, haste, the high
tension at which business is conducted,
all use up the nerve force and pro-
duce neurasthenia, for the disease is
simply exhaustion and excessive ir-
ritability Of the nerve centers.
A tendency to neurasthenia is in
herited by many Americans whose
ancestors had but a small stock of
nervous energy to bequeath. Grief. ex-
cessive worry or disappointment in
love, business or school work may
cause neuraSthenia.
The symptoms include a feeling of
exhaustion upon rising in the morn
ing, Of disturbed sleep, headache, with
a sense Of weight and tightness about
the head. The patient is irritable, diff
ficult to please and suffers from de-
preston.
The treatment is to remove the
cause il possible Gas when overstudy
is responsibility take abundant rest,
spend ten hours in bed out Of every
twenty-four, eat as much nourishing
food as possible and take DR.. Will

This was an especially noteworthy
achievement, as this was the fastest
relay team that ever represented Bow
dom and probably the fastest team that
ever represented any other Maine Coll
lege.
Hall first showed his ability as re-
lay man when he made his Freshman
relay team at Bowdoin in 1913 and ran
against the Bates Freshmen at Lewis
ton and later at Brunswick. In his
Sophomore year he went out for the
Varsity relay team but failed to make
it through his lack OF weight which
counted heavily against him in the
gruelllng relay trials. This year he
succeeded in overcoming this handicap
by ceaseless faithful training under
the careful coaching of Jack Magee
