Nausea.

Nausea is the disagreeable sensa-
and that we are customed to think OF
as an inevitable part of that act. 1t
is however, a distinct sensation, like
main. and it often occurs without vorn-
itine. lust as vomiting may occur with
out a preceding nausea. Like PAIN
and all other sensations, nausea is
really felt in the brain, and it is only
nv association that we refer it to the
stomach the nerves that connect the
stomach and the brain might be cut,
if that were possible without Destroy
ing life, and the sensation OF nausea
could still exist just as a man whose
leg has been amputated sometimes
feels sensations in the foot that IS no
longer there.
Nausea is, Of course, often caused
by conditions present in the stomach,
such as dyspepsia, ulcer, inflammat-
ton or cancer, but in many, il moi. in
most, cases the stomach itself is guilt
less. Almost everyone has OCCASION
ally been nauseated by disagreeaole
sights or odors. Some sensitive peo-
ple are sickened by the mere memory
of such things. In seasickness nau-
sea is the first and sometimes the only
symptom. In grain disease, at or
near the floor of the fourth ventricle,
which is the point where the nerve
disturbance translated as nausea rises
to the surface of consciousness, sick
ness is a prominent symptom. II is
such as dyspepsia, ulcer, Inflammation
also associated with the vertigo that
accompanies disease or temporary
disturbance of the intricate passages
of the inner ear, or that follows arter-
iosclerosis and its attendant changes
in the circulatory system of the brain.
Various drugs and poisons cause
nausea, some by acting through the
nerves to the stomach, others only al
ter absorption into the blood. So do
the poisons of toxins Of many dis
eases, such as Bright'S disease or any
of the acute fevers. Any abnormal
state of the abdominal organs may
produce nausea, and all mothers are
familiar with the morning sickness"
from which they have suffered.
Although nausea may arise quite in
dependently of the stomach, il is US
ually treated through the stomach; that
is because the stomach nerves 60 direct
ly to the brain centre for nausea or
vomiting, and by acting on those nerves
we can most quickly and surely stop
the sensation in the brain. Some
times a sip Of cold, especially of aer-
ated water will give relief. and the
swallowing of a little cracked ice is
often helpful. Irritation over the alb
domen by the application of hot rag
or a mustard plaster is often effective,
and so is the simple pressure OF a
pad held in place by tight belt. If
nausea is caused by the presence Of un-
digested food in the stomach, the SEN
sible thing to do is to drink lukewarm
water or tickle the throat with fea-
Their to induce vomiting and thus empty
the stomach of the offending material.

pense with juries during the spring
terms of court in the interest Of the
food production, if it can be done.
LAST spring." the Governor writes,
"most of the judges in this State dis
pensed with the juries at the spring
term because of shortage of farm labor
and consequent interference with plant
ing. The situation is much more Sc
rious now than last year from every
point of view. | hope that your court

tratlon's New Home Card Now
In 10000, 900 Homes

The women of America, who are
anxious to do their great part in the
winning of the war. are now. as
whole, familiar with the most impor-
tant aspects Of food conservation. The
Home Card, both in its original form
and In the revised edition for 1918.
which provides for two wheatless days,
one meatleSs day q week, In addition
to a wheatless meal every day, has been
placed by the Food Administration aft
er vigorous campaign in 100000
American homes. An intelligent and
conscientious observance Of the Home
Cards requirements is all the Food
Administration asks of the housewives
Of the country.
The Food Administration has had
great many requests, however, particu.
larry from the homes of the well-to-do,
that II should issue worked out plan
for a voluntary system Of rationing.
This desire for a voluntary ration
springs from two causes-flrst, be-
cause II is far simpler for the house
wife to save food when she has con-
crete working plan by which to pro-
coed, and, second, because the loyal
women Of America desire, unseIfshIy,
to put themselves on che same basis
as the women Of the Allied countries
The ration proposed by the Food Ad-
mlnistratlon Is almost the same as
that adopted in England for voluntary
observance. All over the United King
dom, In hundreds Of houses there
hangs In the front window card with
the stirring pledge, AIN HONOR
BOUND WE ADOPT THE NATION

TlONS."
The ration recommended by the
Food Administration, and adopted first
in New York city, whence the idea has
spread through the entire country, Ia
the following:
Weekly
Allowance
Per Person
Meat-Beef (fresh, sailed, tin
ned and hashed); mutton.
lamb and veal (mutton by
preference) ............... PA lbs.
Butter u Id.
Cooking Fats margarine, lard,
lard substitutes, vegetable
oIls) Observation-Disclosures. II lib.
Wheat Flour (for use In cook
Ing gravies, etc, where
corn starch, cracker dust
or bread crumbs cannot be
substituted) ............ II ID.
Victory Bread Containing at
least 20 per cent. of sub
stitute for wheat flour).... IL lbs-
Sugar Cncluding all sugar
used on the table and In
cooking and all sweatmeats
and candies, but not that
used for canning and pre-
serving) -................ 4 10.
The Items listed above are the only
ones which are definitely limited. In
the case Of milk and cream, as much
may be used as necessary, and chill
dren, Of course, must have their full
allowance Of whole milk. Fish and
poultry, any cereal other than wheat
vegetables and fruits and cheese may
be used as freely as Is desired.
The above ration Is in no wise In
tended to supplant the Home Card,
but rather to supplement 1t. 1t has
been published with the Idea that 1t
will be a very real aid to the Ameri-
can woman In her splendid effort to
carry out the great food conservation
program.

Don't Let Soap
 Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care ful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain musffied cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months,
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evennly. and is soft, fresh looking. bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every narticle ow dust, dirt and dandruff.
