Keep An Eye On Your Eyes
Concerning Headaches

just what takes place
in a head that causes It
to ache has never been
scientifically determined.
Just what takes place in
an arm or leg that pro-
duces an ache after
hard labor, no one un-
derstands.
There are several
theories, however, an d
one is that the ache fol-
lows the exhaustion or
depletion of nervous en-
ergy. Nervous energy,
in turn, being described

as the force obtained thru proper
assimilation OF food in healthy
body.
= In cases of eyestrain where there
is no direct pain in the eye, the dis
comfort is usually manifested in the
form of a dull ache, or pain, in the
head.
Eyeball Headache. - Pains in the
eye or eyeball are almost wholly
due to defects of vision and can be
relived by properly fitted glasses, IL
worn in time, but a person should
not neglect these eyeball pains, be-
cause they are often the forerunners
of more serious eye troubles
Frontal and Temporal Headaches.
These headaches are very often
due to muscular eye-strain. but less
frequent pains in these regions may
be due to dyspepsia, constipation or
nasal troubles.
Vortex and Parietal Headaches
Headaches in these regions are most

DO Not Neglect It.

When you use sprays, atomizers

may succeed in unstopping the

the same thing over and over

Catarrh has never yet been
cured by these local applications:

absurd. II rest is what the laboring
classes want" she continues. "why in
heavens name don't they take it?" Ap-
pearing in the role of this modernized
Mrs. Malaprop is Harriet Sterling,
who stands as we'll known figure in
variods sorts Of character parts. But,
unlike the celebrated lady of "Ihe
Rivals" Miss Sterling declares that
the comic twists in NJ. Kstemaccker's 5
Mrs. Graham are not in her inaccura
cies in speech but in her ideas.
"'Mrs. Graham's' English is quite
correct" says Miss Sterling. at is her
mental make up, her notions of things
in general, which are in the vernacular,
half baked!' For a person of her
mental calber it is of course impos-
thought of any compleXity because her
simple perceptions ire so thoroughly
shallow and thwarted that the normal
processes of judgment and reasoning
have never been properly developed.
"What's under all this bolshcvism -
she asks in the play.
The naturalization Of women one
of her friends jokingly replies.
Immediately Mrs. Graham accepts
the reply seriously. How dreadful it
i ISL she bursts out. 4 really can't
sleep at nights, I'm so haunted by the
idea of the butler, the chef and the
chauffeur drawing lots for me,''
In developing this character role
Miss Sterling made a thorough study
of Sheridan's Mrs. Malaprop. and then
Of similar eccentric characters in real
life.
MANY Of the lady's most humorous
lines" Miss Sterling says, trace their
origin to Margaret Anglin's marvellous
fare for comedy. have never expert
snced anything like her sense for the
comic in building UP stage character.
1t is true Irish humor, quick. pointed
and excruciatlngly funny. Miss Angin's
streak of real Irish is responsible for
this comedy gift, so she says, but am
inclined to think she has developed the
largest part of it herself in her wide
experience directing and moldng plays
for production and creating the humor
that is essential to make the play go
over"

The Dutch Conductor


in mystery.
The Dutch Conductor
Tho last to appear will be Willcm
Mengclberg. who will take charge of
the National Symphony Orchestra for
thirty-odd concerts beginning January
Il. The Dutch conductors engagement
is largely due to Mr. Bodanzky's in
creased activities at the opera house.
The Offices OF the National Symphony
have sent out the following sketch Of
Mr.. Mengelberg's career:
For twenty-five years Mengelberg has
s been the conductor of the Concert
gebouw Orchestra Of. Amsterdam, and
in that time has made it not only the
'finest Of Dutch orchestras. but one of
the most celebrated bands in Europe.
During the season it not only gives
regular series of concerts in Amster-
, dam, but it gives subscription series in
most Of the larger towns of Holland;
In fact, it supplies the major part of
the orchestral music of the country.
Before the war it Travelled much, giving
concerts in Belgium and Scandinavia,
and in 1908 it was taken to London for
a great Richard Strauss festival It's
own festivals in Holland are famous
throughout Europe. In connection with
the great chorus of the Society for
the Promotion of Musical Art, of
which Mcngebcrg has been the con-
ductor since the beginning of his career
IN Holland, performances are given each
Year of Bacn'3 "Passion" music and
Beethoven's Ninth symphony and "Missa
Solemnis.' There have been many spe-
clal festivals such as the Mailer festi-
val given in Amsterdam last spring.
when the nine symphonies of the Aus
TRAN master we're performed with great
nomp on successive days, attracting a
great crowd of music lovers from all
parts of Europe despite the expense
and inconveniences of travel, which
make for such real discomfort on the
Continent to-day.
There Is nothing sensational about
Menge lberg's career. 1t is the story
of great talent, judiciously nourished
and wisely fostercd in the beginning
and afterward brought to fine maturity
by years of hard and unremitting toll
The son of we'll known architect of
Utrecht, who incidentally was a cele-
brated authority of Gothic art and as
such had to do with several of the
more important restorations of Cologne
Cathedral. his childhood was spent in
sympathetic atmosphere. We read
of his conducting a chorus at the age
of seven. a year after he had begun
his music lessons. However that may
he. after p thorough preliminary
training in his native city of Utrecht
he was sent to Cologne, where in the
