PAIN IN TuE LARCEsT NERVE

Kahn IN 1buE An8NOGOX VERNE
The sciatic nerve. which Is the
large nerve going into the legs. is the
largest nerve in the body. When pain
occurs in this nerve 1t IS usually
called sciatica or sciatic rheumatism.
This is really a form of neuralgia Of
the sciatic nerve. 1t may occur with
those of a rheumatic tendency, those
having pelvic tumors, or In case OF
either a nerve injury, nerve inflam-
nation. and IN certain spinal diseases.
Sciatica is usually characterized by
sharp stabbing pains or a burning
pain about the hip region. These
pains are usually very evere
One form of sciatica Is caused by an
inflammation Of the nerve caused
through a deposit of rheumatic
poisons. The pain may start in the
back OF the sacrum and extend down
the leg in both the front and back.
This form of sciatica Is easily cured
through a dietetic treatment which
will eliminate the rheumatic poisons.
Another form of sciatica may be from
any pressure in the pelvis. such as
from q packed rectum due to consti-
patton. The pressure may also come
during the latter months of preg-
nancy, or be due to the growth of
pelvic tumors. If the tumor presses
toward the right side of the abdomen.
the pain may shoot down into the
right leg. and III the case Of certain
kinds Of cystic tumors where the tu-
NOR changes its position from one
side Of the pelvis to the other. the
pain may change from one leg to the
other. according to whether the tu-
MOI is pressing to the right or to
the left.
Another form Of sciatica is caused
from a malposition of the lower lum-
bar vertebrae or the sacro-iliac bones
Of the pelvis. Such faulty positions
often aus a pressure on branches of
the sciatic nerve and the pain will
continue until the proper treatment
is given to adjust the bones to their
normal positions.
One form of sciatica is caused from
either tuberculosis of these same
spinal or pelvic bones or from a To-

joint may alone be affected with
arthritis or tuberculosis and the in
flammation from this m joint may
affect the sciatic nerve in such a way
as to cause sciatica.
A careful diagnosis IS usually nee
essary in order to arrive at a correct
conclusion concerning the exact
causes of any specific case of sciatica.
One of the simplest tests for the pa
tient to S at home is to try a fast
for about a week to see how much
effect this will have. If there is not
a decided change within a week on an
orange juice fast, the patient may rest
assured that there is either al inflam-
matory condition of the pelvic bones
that these bones or those of the
lower spine are out of position-or
that there is some definite pelvic
pressure, possibly caused from consti-
patton or a tumor formation.
A careful diagnosis will always dis.
close the real cause or causes, and

HIS BROTHERS, FOOTSTEPS
(By Alice JudScn pcale)

~ So SNSSbAo ~8
Larry certainly is lucky. Think of

which his brother already has spent a
year and done % we'll by the family
name. Larry will be popular without
half trying. He'll be invited to join
everything, and everybody will be ex-
pecting the best of him. It's fine to
have a reputation to live up to. All
he has to do is to follow in his
brothers footsteps"
Thus spoke a family friend over the
tea cups. But Larry's mother. with
some of that intuition so generously
attributed to all mothers. was not SO
sure that Larry was lucky.
She knew that her Younger boy was
quite different from his brother. II,
indeed, he should find himself popu-
lar. it would be for reasons wholly
differen. from those which had won
the elder boy his leadership.
Also she understood quite we'll that,
although there was a very real af-
lection between the boys. there was
also q current of antagonism, which,
II Larry proved unhappy in the
school situation. might readily pro-
duce a whole crop Of quarrels and
hard feelings.
Brothers are born rivals, and It is
tempting providence to throw them
into situations which emphasize the
personal equation. It is not wise to
send away to school together BROTH
ers 50 nearly the same age that com.
parsons are inevitable.
Personal tension is likely to de.
yelop, and the powers of or the
other are bound to be handicapped in
their expression. No boy should feel
that he Is expected to follow in his
brothers footsteps. He should feel
free to choose his own direction.

MARIE ANTOlNErTE

On Oct. l6. 1893. Marie Antoinette,
queen Of France and consort Of Louis
XVI. was beheadcd as a traitor to her
country.
Marie Antoinctte was the daughter
Of Emperor Francis I and Maria
Theresa Of Austria and was betrothed
to the French Dauphin at the age Of
IA. She was married at Versailles q
year later.
The queens love Of luxury and
amusements and her indifference to
the miserics of her people. combined
with her efforts to influence Louis
XVI to shape the foreign policy Of
France In accordance with the inter-
ests OF Austria, made her unpopular.
From the first hour Of the French
revolution, she q the object Of q
fanatical hatred. The unhappy
queen and her husband were at last
imprisoned.
Louis XVI was executed IN Jan. q,
1893. and In October Of that year the
queen was brought before the revo-
lutionary tribunal and charged with
fomenting civil war and lending coun-
sci to the enemies Of France.
There Is no doubt that the queen
corresponded with her brother relative
to the invasion Of France by IN Aus
trian army for the purpose Of rescu.
Ing the royal family.
After two days trial. the queen
was found guilty OF treason and con-
demned to death. She was executed
the same day. Her tragic fate has
given rise to voluminous literature.

Shooting Pheasants
devils Lake .Iournall

VDIVIIS LaKC JUuTIIHIT
Reports from various parts of the state which have
been stocked with prcasants state that hunters, III the
fields seeking grouse and prairie chickens, have wanton-
~ shot a number Of pleasants.
The sportsman who does this Is not a sportsman in the
accepted meaning of the term. He is what is generally
CALLED a game hog" The state is being stocked with
phcasants at a considerable expense to the fish and game
commission and the various chapters Of the Izaak Walton
league. The purpose is 10 furnish future sl.ooting for the
hunters Of the state. and to provide an admirable substi-
tute for fast diminishing grouse and prairie chicken.
The fish and game commission and the Izaak Walton
league are motivated in this endeavor by altruistic plr-
poses. The Lake Region is being stocked with pheasants
because the true sportsmen here realize that something
must be done to supply the hunters of the future with up
land game that will test their shooting mottle, and the
pheasant has proved to be a bird Of no mean gameness.
Probably If the grouse and chicken season we're closed
completely for several years the pheasants would be given
hunters who have no sporting principle no excuse to go
into the fields.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Attacks OF Numbness

Question: Mrs. q. writes: "On three
occasions during the past year / have
been awakened from sleep with a
numbness creeping over me. Have
tried to call for help but could not
move my lips. neither could I raise
my hand or any part Of my body for
what seems like a minute. I would
appreciate it If you would inform me Of
the cause, and II there is danger o.
paralysis. I am thirty years old and
weigh 100 pounds"
Answer: The numb attacks you
have at night are probably caused
from nervousness and would be
classed under the name of hysteria.
There Is no reason for suspccting you
are subject to paralysis because of
this. but you certainly should have a
good diagnosis made, and study how
to remove the cause of your nervous
ness.
Wholewheat Mullins
Question: Mother asks: will yo,l
kindly print again your recipe fork
wholewheat muffins?" e
Answer: To a well beaten egg add
one cup Of sweet milk. Then stir in
n cupful Of genuine wholewheat |
flour and beat until smooth. Next add
o half cupful OF the w~holewheat flour
into which has been thoroughly mixed
one level teaspoonful of baking pow
der. Bake in muffin tins in q modcr.
ately hot wen until brown. The
quantity makes six medium or eight
small mullins.
Loop I'm Colon
Question: NJ. K. b. asks: Can a
loop in the colon be cured by dieting?
What would you adviser"
Answer: A loop in the colon can be
corrected through proper manipula-
tive treatment, supplemented in some
cases by certain electrical treat
ments. # these treatments are not
taken we cannot expect diet to pro-
cuce a cure, although one with a
kinked or looped colon will certainly
be In better health on q well balanced
diet than when eating haphazardly.
