A ci writer says that sleep, s nth&c to e 3 if takes at the right moment, will prevent an attack of nervous head- ache. If the subjects of such head- aches will watch the symptoms of its coming. they can notice that it be- gins with a feeling of weariness and heaviness. This is the time a sleep of an hour, or even two, as nature guides, will effectually prevent the headache, If not then, it will be too late, for after the attack is fairly undor way it is impossible. to get sleep until far into the night, perhaps. It is so common in these days for doctors to forbid having their patients waked to take medi- cines if they are asleep when the hour comes round that people have learned the lesson pretty, well, and they generally know that sleep is bettor for the sick then medicine. But it is not so well known that sleep is a wonderful prevention of disease better than tonic regulators and stimulants.

In a previous article a warning was uttered against the clanger of a re- sort to "headache powders" and other powerful drugs for the relief of headache. It was shown that the re- medy eventually would prove worse than the disease, and that the wisest course for a sufferer from periodical attacks of pain in the head was to search for the souse of the trouble and remove it, or, if that was not possible, to use such palliative meas- ures as would softest the pain and perhaps shorten the attack, even if they could not qure. There is another unfortunately large class of su5Terers for whom this warning comes too late. The head- aches have existed for so many years that they have become inveterate and recur again and again, until seemingly the only possible mutiga- tion of the suffering is in drugs. Tho headache "habit" is fully establish- ed, and the drug habit has followed as an almost necessary consequence. The problem is now the cure of the drug habit, which must be attacked by the removal of the cause—the headache habit. Severe periodical headaches, of the kind which almost force the sufferer to drugs, are almost always either ocular or gouty. They can be pre- vented only by the accurate fitting of glasses or the remedying of other eye defects, or by overcoming the gouty condition. Neither of these) tasks is easy, even to the most skil- ful of physicians, after tho headachesi have persisted so long that a "hab- it" of the system has been formed, yet persistence in treatmeut will al- ways bring an amelioration, and'. sometimes a curer.

PUGILIST TO PREACHER. Ex -Champion of England in the Salvation Army. A picturesque preacher is to be heard at tho Salvation Army Hall, Black friars road, London. He is "Billy" McLeod, who a quarter of a century sago was the lightweight champion boxer 01 England, and a well-known figure in sporting circles, It is 20 years ago since this mus- cular Christian joined the Salvation Army; since that time he has preach- ed all over England. At a recent meeting "Billy" step- ped to the front and carefully re- moved the table on the platform. The reason for this was made clear very soon, for the preacher every now and then would indulge in a "round" with an imaginary foe as ho told his enthusiastic audience about his past life. His first fight, for $2 a side, was described in great detail by Billy, SUFFERED TORTURE FUR FOUR YEARS THEN DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS CURED WK. DOHG'S RT$EUIXCATISi1L.

Lord Penrhyn Has Wolt a 'Victory Over Labor Leaders, WRITTEN LANGUAG11. In writing, the Japanese employ the Chinese system of ideograms, though this cumbrous method is sometimes modified a little by the use of the lana, the syllabary, or alphabet, which consists of 47 syllables, and governs the spoken tongue almost en- tirely. These t7 syllables are; I, ri, yo, mu, ya, SO, ro, nu, ta, u, ma, Id, ha, ru, re, 1, ke, yu, mi, wo, so, no, fa, me, ho, wa, tsu, o, ko, mi, he, ka, no, ku, ve, shi, to, ye, na, me, te, su, cliff, hi, ra, se, a. To this list of syllables must be added the terminal n, and also the modifications of the meaning of some. of tYiem, which brings the total num- ber up to 7.2. These changes include some modifications as t to d, 1i and f to b or p, s to z, and so forth. This is termed in Japanese the nig- ori. All purely Japanese words end either in a vowel or in the letter n, 'but the final u Is generally silent, so that tho word mase, for example, would bo pronounced mos. The pronuncia- tion of vowels is precisely the same as in Italian, save that tlhey are slightly shorter. There is no accent whatever in the Japanese tongue, and all syllables of a word and all words of a sentence are pronounced with equal stress laid on each, Tn the brief vocabulary and list of sentences given in tliis article the Japanese rendering of the English words and sentences is given in syl- lables and the spelling is piiouetic. The actual Japanese words are not given, but merely the pronunciation as also were subsequent ones, in-, of oacli syllable in the sentence as eluding the famous one with Jen) i nearly as it could be rendered in printed form, so that if one Pro- 1:10un00 the Japanese rendering of each word or sentence just ns it would be pronounced in Englisch one will closely approximate the exact manner in which a Japanese would atter it.

Lord Penrhyn held out, won the vic- tory and not only that, but likewise the good will of the very melt will Whom he had been fighting. 1101,0g the lifetime of his father, the latter had tried the experiment of working the quarries under the management of a committee of the men, which ended in chaos and disaster, from which they were rescued by the pre- sent Lord Penrhyn, who took them into his own hands and brought them back into a condition of prosperity. This experiment of his father de- termined him to permit no outside interference with his property, and while he offered no objection to his men forming themselves into associa- tions of the benefit order, to declined to allow them to import professional labor agitators from the outside, as officers of their unions, or to toler- ate relations between the latter and other tabor unions throughout the country, resolved not to expose him- self timself to the danger of sympathetic strikes, It was this that brought about the war between his mon and himself, and, rather than give way, ho shut down his quarries. 'To -day they are °nee more working in. full blast, This men having yielded to Itis terms. These are exceedingly liberal in the matter of pay and hours, far more, indeed, than in any oiler slate quar- ries where labor unions aro in con- trol. Moreover, he has established a system of pensions, and is extremely generous and indulgent in the matter of runt, all the workingmen in his employ being his tenants. Lord Pen- rhyn shows the same solicitude fur the material and moral welfare for the people of his estates as other English territorial magnates, who aro keenly alive to the fact that the possession of land carries obligations with it. Indeed, during the years that his men were on strike he re- frained from expelling them from their Holdings, and relieved tlieir des- titution, even while they were waging the bitterest kind of war against hila.

A sandbag is said to be greatly superior to a hot water bag, which many people prize so highly. Get some clean fine sand; dry it thor- oughly in a kettle on the stove; make a bag about eight inches square of flannel fill it with dry sand and sow the opening carefully to- gether, and cower the bag with cot- ton or linen cloth. This will pre - vont the sand from sifting out, and also unable you to heat the bag quickly by placing it in the oven or on the top of the stove.
