threatening tone.

Alaire, who had followed Paloma,
was close enough now to recognize the
two Guzman boys as members Of the
Ranger party. Lewis and his men had
drawn together at the first alarm; Lon

their leader. The entire situation had
changed in moment, and the Ranger
captain was in control of 1t.
Soon Dave Law and Blaze Jones
came up over the river bank; they
paused. stricken with surprise at find

Neuralgia

NrtIrRAJGIA may be caused by mai
N nutrition impoverishment of the blood
an excess of protein in the diet, autointoNl-
cation through the absorption from the
colon of the products of putrcfaction. An
eminent English physician defined neural
gia as the cry of hungry nerve for bet
ter blood The best way to secure petler
blood is to eat pure food ana i've an actiNe
outdoor life.
For temporary relief of almost any form
of neuralgia heat is the best OF all rem
edies 1t cannot be too often repeated
that heat kills pain. Applications of heat
may be made in great variety of ways,
as by hot lamentations, hot-water bags, hot
poultices, photophore, incandescent electric
light, arc light and diathermy. The last
named remedy is modification of the wire
less electricity and is especially useful in
cases of deep-seated neuralgia, visceral
neuralgia, which cannot always be relieved
by external hot applications. BY means of
diathermy heat may be supplied to any
internal part, no matter how deeply seated.
In making hot applications for relief Of
neuralgia it is important to remember the
water must be as hot the patient can
bear. The application should be so hot as
to make it necessary to take II off and put
it on two or three times until the patients 8
skin can bear it. Commencing the applica-
tion at about 10 degrees Fahrenheit, the
skin will gradually acquire a tolerance for
heat until a temperature of 115 to 12O de-
grees Fahrenheit can be borne. Continue
for fifteen or twenty minutes and immedi-
ately follow by the application of towel
or compress moistened in water at so de-
grees for one minute. Then dry and cover

have been whispering something to me and,
believe me. whatever 1t was it was some-
thing good. / could not remember it. though
I was still laughing and thought that was
a good way to start the day. So I kissed
Rowdy on the nose and then my father
came and we had a lot of fun building the
pancakes. He put in the flour and put in
the egg and he put in the baking powder and
I put in the salt and he put in the cornmeal
and put in the water and we stirred them
turn about and he lit the blaze and Topped
the cakes and then he ate one and ate one
and Rowdy ate one till they were all gone.
Then my father went to sleep and put
on my black boomers and my stylish clothes
over them and went out to have a swim.
Who should be there but that old colored
woman fishing I didn't care. for IL she
doesn't want her fishes scared she ought to
fish somewhere else. So I took on my
clothes. all but my bloomers and had a

frequently while applying. Let dry. sand

one or two coats of oil stain. using a soft
brush and working with the grain of the
wood. Keep stirring constantly. For ma
hogany oil stain use the same mixture If
oil and turpentine and four parts Of Indian
red to three parts burnt sienna. This should
be mixed dry and stirred evenly through the
oil and turpentine. One pint more turpen-
tine and one-half pint less oil will make the
stain dry more quickly. When thoroughly
dry a coat of shellac can be applied or the
floor can be thoroughly waxed. Wax will
keep it in splendid condition.

SAYS LACK OF CLERICAL
HELP is COSTLY TO CITY

That many thousands of dollars are lost
to the city each year through Councils
failure to provide a few additional stenog-
raphers and clerks for the Board Of Land
Viewers. is the charge made by Charles w.
Boyer, head of the board in reply to crit
icism over delays occasioned by the mad
equacy of the office force
According TO Mr.. Boyer, the city Is pay
ing $500 a day in interest charges at 6
per cent on Parkway properties and will
continue to do so until the report in these
cases is filed. Delays in completing the
cases, he claims are occasioned by the
lack of clerical help that Councils could
supply, thus saving the city many thou
sands of dollars In discussing the cond-
ton, the head of the board declared it a
crime and a shame that Councils have SO
far failed to act, and declared that this
fall he will make an effort to get the needed
help.
