A ENAMOUR.
Cate of the meat troublesome of the
minor ills with which thiis poor haman-
ity is afflict -tad is headache. It fastens
itself with such persistency that it is
aimost irapossible to shake it oft. Med-
icines do not always help, and besides
it is not well to get into the habit
of taking naecticine for everything and
at all times.
Tbere are several kinds of headaches
but the most general and. distracting
is nervous headacbe, This is usually
caused by nervous exhaoseion, when the
worn-out nerves cease thine aotion up-
on the arteries which hecome full of
blood, Inwood constantly from the
heart. This undue dilation of the ea-
teries and the pressure on the brain
cause the pain and lethargy. The best
remedy for such headaches for one who egueathed. to her 8400 a month for
is subject to them is to never under-
take to do more than one's strength
will allow. Too much laborious house-
work, too xnuott study, or worry, or
tiniciety is sure to bring it on. The
only way to ease it would be to free
the mind from all care, if possible. and
go out in the fresh, sweet air. A rest-
ful sleep after a warm bath will be
feun.d wonderfully helpful and possilly
much the best cure, Very often some
geetle exercise night and morning will
set the blood circulating and remove
it from the overtaxed arteries in the
head. Gymnastic exerciset with the
arras and legs, if one will persist in
it and not overdo, will do much to pre-
vent congestion of the arteries.
Some headaches are brought on by
overeating or from indigestible food.
reryone ought to know what is hest
for bite and what he should a.voia, as
far as eating is concerned. In, should
learn to control the appetite and he
weuld have no healaches from such

"FORTY WINKS."
Tell dined humanity will feel reliev-
ed to hear the decision of the medical
profess:on that the time-honored insti-
tution of "forty winks" after dinner
is conducive to health and a teautiful
recuperative process. Plethoric, full-
blooded people have feared to indulge
in this tempting settling of a heavy
feed, several Engl'sh preen' ioners have
made a severe attack on the siesta as
tending to apoplexy or nightmare, hut
the Medical Press declares this idea is
founded o11 a, mhapprebension of the
physiological functions of the stomach
and 'brain. And this is what it says,
answering the question; "Is it harm-
ful thus to fall asleep after a meal?
By no means. The process is merely
a physiological one, and as such when
it occurs is quite natural. When diges-
tion is in Progress, nature arranges
that all the available blood in the body
shall be collected 5 and about the di-
.
• tive or ans. Conse.quently the blood
supp.y to the ureen he— 'hewnelthe
and thus sleep is easily induced. On the
other hand, physiologically, it is wrong
yr talon work to be attempted inune,d-
lately after a solid .meal." Which is a
most. comfortable doctrine, but one that
offers a new developinent in the attrac-
tions of dinner parties or public ban -
quests. How would it be possible for
guests. after twang off the pousse cafe,
.o recline with comfort in the straight
back chairs of modern fashion? Would
these heavy diners be able to restrain
tbe snores with which nature afflicts
the ehiclren of men in their unconscious
moments? If. the "forty winks" meth-
od is to receive public and immediate
postprandial adoption, another order of
truing room furniture must prevail.
People who are in the habit of dining
not wisely, but too well, must insist
on the introduction of the classic Ro-
man style of couch or triclinia round
the mahogany, and on that extend
themselves as gracefully as may be un-
til the digestive, organs have done
their duty. Beneficent sleep 1 It would

would awake refreshed, and their gen-

Possibly the most remarkable cat in

shores of Lake St. Catharine. The cet is
the special pride and pet of Mrs. Hen-

teeth. She walked up to Mrs. Hast-

at her feet.
It was not the first time,, however,
that the cat had. caught a mink. It has
caught no less than ball a dozen. All

ly vidueable fox. their fur. But it is
as a rabbit latu.nter that the cat ranks
preeminent.. S -rice the beginning of this
year she has caught a.nd taken to her
mistress' /souse nearly 16) rabbits. Many
of these rabbitwere as large as her-
self, and as a rabbit. isn't much of a
fighter, the shy little aniraals were no
doubt captured without any great trou-
ble.
Mrs. Hastings is never surprised to
see a dead rabbit lying- about teahouse.
In fact, she would not be much sur-
prised if the cat brought home a fax
or other larger game. It is a remark-
able fact that tbe cat never takes poor
game home with her. The mink are
always the fine.sa the rabbits the
plumpest and the birds the tenderest.
