Various Forms
Of Headache

It Is necessary In order to treat head
aches properly to understand the causes
which produce the affection" says Dr. J. W.
Ray, of BlOcktou. Ala. Continuing, he says,
Physicians cannot even begin the treat
meut of disease without knowing what
causes give rise to It, ana we must remem-
Der that headache Is to be treated accord
Ing to the same rule We must not only be
particular to give . remedy intended to
counterfeit the cause which produces the
headache, but we must also give remedy
TO relieve the pain until the cause of the
trouble has been removed To answer this
purpose, and-kamnfs tablets will be found
most convenient and satisfactory remedy.
One tablet every one to three hours gives
comfort and rest in the most severe cases
OF headache, neuralgia and particularly the
headaches of women
When we have 9 patient subject to regular
sttaekS OF sick headache, We should caution
him to keep his bowels regular, for which
nothing is better than "Actotds," and when
ne feels the least sign of an oncoming at
tack, he should take two AK Tablets. Such
patients should always be instructed to
carry few anti-kamnia tablets, SO as to
have thems ready for instant use. These
tablets are prompt in action and can be
depended On to produce relief In q very
few minutes. Ask for Ak Tablets.

BoRER DANGEROUS TO TREES

do not set out young trees near
old orchards" is his advice. The
fat-headed borer girdles the trees in
the cambium layer, cutting off the
food supply. These borers may be dug
out but preventive measures are a
more effective means of control.
"A wash that will prevent the fe-
male from laying her eggs on the tree
may be made by dissoIving in sat
urated solution of washing soda
enough common laundry soap to make
a thick paint To each two gallons OF
this add one pint of crude carbolic
