.,.CURING SICK
HEADACHES
IN HERE is common and dis
tressing form of headache
by Brice BeIden. III. ID,

"HERE is common and dis
tressing form of headache
that merits special con-
sideration.. Its everyday name
is "sick headache" Sometimes
it is called nervous headache"
Technically it is known as mi
graine or hemicrania.
Sometimes this form of head
ache is hereditary 1t is often
associated with neurasthenic and
other nervous states. The af-
lection rarely begins after thirty
or before five. About thirty per
cent Of the cases begin between
the ages of five and ten. The at
tacks become less frequent and
less severe as one grows older,
and at forty-five or fifty disap-
pear. Sick headache is far more
common among women than
among men-at least twice as
many women suffer from it.
Anaemia, indigestion, eyestrain, or
anything that lowers the general
health and lessons the vital re-
sistance of the individual, pre-
dispose to sick headache.
We have mentioned the predis-
posing causes. Immediately ex-
citing causes are intestinal auto
intoxication, too much protein
food (meat and eggs, fatigue, a
cold bath, sudden exposure to
bright sunlight, mental strain and
emotional disturbance, such as
fright, anger or worry.
Eremonitory symptoms, lasting
for few minutes or several
hours, are zigzag flashes of light,
ringing in the ears, vertigo, dim
ness of vision. feeling of indis-
position or exhaustion, faintness.
loss of appetite, insomnia, numb
ness in the hands, and pricking
sensations in the tongue or lips.
One or more of these symptoms
may. be experienced.
Then the headache develops and
lasts from one hour to three
days, becoming more and more
severe until there is sickness of
the stomach. During this period
OF anguish the extremities are
cold, the face is palej the pulse is
slow, there is great prostration,
and the blood pressure is usually
high.
During an attack the patient
should be in quiet dark room.
Two or three glasses of hot water
should be drunk. The extremities
must be kept warm with not
blankets. Some cases are re-
lieved by cold congresses to the
head, others by hot congresses.

days when his hosts had figured
as entertainers of the public, he
saw no reason for not talking
about his own business as a pro-
drama in general and particular.
Since landing in Hanleytown his
mind had been full of the new
play which he was to evolve from
the ashes of 1.-The Greater Love-"
and Silver's sudden appearance in
the parlor door, dripping wet, had
supplied him with an entrance"
that had been defying his powers
of invention.
Having no other star in the
least available, he had been men,
tally casting Nellie Michelin for
the leading part in When My
Ship Comes IN but the thought
of her efforts to appear casual in
a dripping bathing suit was too
much for his sense of humor.
No fine woman masquerading
as sweet sixteen could be any
thing but ridiculous in that naive
and tragic drama of youth and
aspiration and the sea.

All in white. her rich brown

NOR and expression, her. eyes so
dark and steady as almost to

more an ideal of his minds crea-

blood. In short, he could find no

some such feelings as may be
attributed to a miner who has
stumbled by pure accident upon
a rich pocket of gold.

SMART TOGS
FOR COLE
BY Rita Stuyvesant-

A ONE-PIECE worsted frock
"A is comfortable for. golfing
and quite, simple. with
pointed collar open at the throat
and long tight sleeves. 1t is a
chemise effect, lightly belted at
the hips with string girdle of
self-material. One finds this
smart wooden frock in tan, copen,
navy or white, with bottom bound
in a contrasting shade,
A clever little angora sports
hat in gay color that matches the
trimming on the frock just de-
scribed, makes pleasing accom-
paniment, and sport shoes of
white or tan with colored leather
strappings complete the outfit.
Sweaters and separate skirts
are well liked for outdoor wear
A knife pleated flannel skirt in
gray, tan or white is a good in
Vestment for the spring or sum-
mer wardrobe, and is of COM
Portable ankle length. With this
skirt, one wears a sweater of
wool and fiber, which is shown
in combinations of navy and
copen, tan and orange, copen and
gray to harmonic with the skirt.
A crisp white vest, and sports hat
of tan felt with rolled edge brim
will do much to add to ones COM
fort and smart appearance.
The new suits of camels' hair
cloth are excellent for gotfing,
and consist of a simple two-piece
skirt and hip-length jacket The
Jacket may be either straight of
line or can flare a little at the
bottom. The sleeves must be
loose, and slightly flaring at the
wrists, to allow for plenty of
freedom when driving"
Wooden hose, in plain or hi
zarre patterns complete the knick-
err costume. The wooden socks
with heavy cUffed tops are neces-
sary when one dons Knockers in
place of the feminine skirt.

You are surprised that monkeys

1t was in Gibraltar that / first
saw these little fellows called
Barbary apes. You know, Gibral-
tar is the southernmost part of
the western section of Europe,
right at the entrance of the
Mediterranean Sea. When you
leave the Atlantic ocean to go
into Nhe Mediterranean, you pass
through the Straits of Gibraltar
and there. on your left, is huge
rock sticking way out of the
water, called the Rock of Gibral-
tar-I guess it's biggest rock in
the woodland on the other side
is Africa.
This big rock used to belong to
Spain, but now it belongs to Eng

toned there to guard the town,
which is at the foot of the rock.

is built on a sandy stretch of
land, and around the town is a
big wall. At night when they
close the gates it is a very pretty
sight to see the soldiers march
ing down the street with a fife
and drum corps and stand at
attention at shutdown while they
lock the big gates
Then after that no one can en-
ter the city unless he gives the
password.
Bunny and Bobby and | used to
love to watch the soldiers march
down the street, but the thing
that amused us most was to see
a monkey hopping along with the
soldiers. He was their mascot,
and he wore a little coat and

Where under the sun did all

Bobby cried excitedly:

But Bunny, who was out of

ting on my shoulder, said:
They're Barbary apes. You
know that monkeys live here in
Gibraltar and everybody wonders
how they got here. Some people
think that at one time the Medi-

that a strip of land held Africa

monkeys came over from Africa.

the third was thoroughly massag-
ing her, the fourth held beauti-
full flower before her.
Her hair was usually braided in
a number OF small braids, the
ends being left loose, flowing in
a soft waving fringe, a lotus bud
fastened on the side. This style
was not common with the other
women of her court, their hair
usually being straight, so they
were compelled to braid 1t to
the end, or fasten it close about
their heads.
Sat-Kames used great many
kinds of perfume, her favorite
consisting of myrrh, broom, frank
incense, buckthorn, and several
other ingredients several of which
were obtained from foreign
plants. These substances were
pounded, mixed together. and a
certain quantity was put in the
fire. Then the smell in the house
and of the clothes was pleasant"
But with all the ingenuity that
Sat-Kames- exercised in enhanc-
ing her physical charms, her hus-
band turned from her and made
another his "chief> wife,, whose
progeny inherited the kingdom.
At the age of thirty she died and
was buried with all the exquisite
splendor in which she had lived
But when her body was recov-
cred 1t was found that robbers
had taken from it her diadem, a
necklace of four rows of gems
