Headache
When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys
tem. centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent nr.d
prolonged attacks weaken toe
train, resulting in loss of
memory, inflammation, epi
lepsy. fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition bv taking

TIGERS A PUBLIC MENACE.
People and Stock Are Killed by Sav
age Beasts in Menican
Territory.
Tigers, driven from their mountain
lairs in the territory of Tepie by the
scarcity of food, continue to ravage the ■
haciendas of the valleys. They are be
coming such a general danger, says the
Mexican Herald, that I he municipal au
thorities have offered a reward of $10
for every tiger's skin.
For the past several months great
numbers of the animals have swanned
through the marshes of the lowlands
along the coast and in the valleys o'
the territory of Tepie, having been
driven out of She states of Sinaloa and
Sonora by the Hoods and the extremely
cold weather. The damage caused to
the hacier.dados and the danger in
curred by the presence of the animals
was such that many of them offeree!
rewards for the skins of the animals
some time ago.
The tigers, however, seem to like the
warm weather and the good food that
they are getting in Tepie and instead of
decreasing their numbers have greatly
increased within the last few weeks.
Now the muni, ipal authorities of thr
territory have also offered a reward for
the skins of the animals.
The tigers have become so bold that,
they will enter the houses on the plan- |
tations and help themselves to what- j
ever comes in their path. Several
deaths are reported in different parts
or' the tend.-.ry. In many sections of
the state it is necessary to have armed
guards stationed at night, to insure
the safety of the other people in the
settlements.
Live stock is suffering more than
anvt.hine elsp won thp
visions tiiat are "necessary for the shel
ter of the stock, it leaves them in most
cases without any protection at all
from the beasts. Even the presence
of numerous guards around a bunch of
cattle is oftentimes insufficient to keep
the tigers from getting away with an
animal or two from along the edges
of the herd.
Hunting for the animals lias been :
greatly stimulated by the offers of the '
government and scores of hunters are
-louring the country for them. The
number of the skins that have been
turned in thus far is large and it is
hoped that it will not lie long before
the animals are driven back to the
seclusion of the mountains.
WAKING IN THE WILDERNESS
How to Get Out of Bed When the
Thermometer Registers Forty
Below Zero.
_
You are awakened in the bitter dark
ness of the early morning by the
sound of the camp dogs moving among
the frozen pails of refuse. You heai
their padding footsteps passing this
way and that outside of the tents and
the brushing of their bodies against:
the canvas walls. Then you hear the
sound of chopping wood where some- i
one is at work in the starlight, says '
the Boston Globe. One of the men
stirs and rises in the darkness The !
tent is bitter cold, with everything j
frozen as hard as iron. You hear the
man fumbling around in the darkness
for the matches, and presently he
•Trikes one and lights a candle.
fVesently he begins chopping the
wood for the stove, and his big, round
3b t low moves uncouthly and gro
tesquely about the walls as the flame
of the candle wavers in the draught
of cold air. He makes a Are, and in
a moment the flame is roaring up the
stovepipe, which gradually becomes a
dull red with the gushing heat. He
stands with his hack to the stove and
presently the other man rises and
joins him.
Then you yourself move reluctantly
in your warm swaddling of furs, and
with some effort crawl out into the
hitter cold and joint the others around
the stove. None of you speak, but |
each absorbs the scanty heat in
silence. By and by, warmed to some ,
return of life you peep out of the 1
tent; the sky is like black crystal, the I
stars smiting witn incredible ertui- :
genee. From the stovepipe of the |
other tents rockets of tianie are gush- i
ing up into the air: showers of sparks I
rise up into the night high overhead i
—hover, waver, and then sink dwind
ling upon the tent and the surround- j
ing snow.
You look at the thermometer hang- !
ir.fr against a tree and see by the light
of a match that it is 40 degrees below •
r?ro. By lb:.- rime the- smell of cook- ;
ing is filling the silent frozen spaces!
of the darkness and you reenter the
tent to ting as: in the warmth of the
stove, with a huge appetite for the
rude breakfast of melted grease and
gillettes.
Explosions on did Battle-Fields,
The forests in the mountains known
is Loudon Heights, opposite Harper’s
Ferry, took fire recently and burned
with great intensity. After some time
a series of explosions were heard |
which startled the inhabitants, and tho-r
oncussion was so great that it. broke
windows in some houses in Harper’s
•Vrry, across the Shenandoah. The ex
plosions were caused by the bursting i
of shells which had been thrown on
the heights at the time when Gen
Mills surrendered to Stonewall Jack
son in 18J2 These had failed to ex
plode when they ware fired, and had :
remained there for more than 40 years

SCARCITY OF CREAT MEN.
Few Statesmen of Notable Power in
the World To-De.y. Says This
Authority.
The London Spectator finds t.haf
there is at. this time an alarming scar
city or great men in the realm of
■statecraft the world over It has di>
overed two big men. William II. of
Germany and President Roosevelt, but
vre "hampered by a disparity between
■.hair objects and their means, which
is yet appears incurable." The Spec
ator challenges anyone to name a
man of the absolute first grade - -a Na
poleon. a Bismarck, a Cavaur or a
Garibaldi—the single mar. of our age
"the stamp of whose fool produced
armies from the ground " Even .la
pan Is denied the glory of producing
a man who can. like Moltke, "secure
from victory its full results.” Russia
is barren >f really great leaders Iu
Germany and Austria no one can be
named who "in a great war would be
•hnsmi generalissimo.” Italy and
France are barren of commanding po
litical geniuses "who can solve the
social problem or settle the eternal
quarrel with the church " The Spec
tator confesses that England is iu no
better plight. The crop d' truly great
men, it thinks, is no longer produced.
It is not quite fair to the present to
measure its product of great, charac
ters with that of the entire past. As
well complain that a Shakespeare does
not appear in every a- ■ The yield of
colossal statesmanship or generalship
has never been very prolifii -Once in
a generation or two a figure may ap
pear which will live through succeed
ing ages. There are many undeveloped
but possible statesmen and military
heroes who have missed opportunities
for fame and immortality because
there was no occasion to bring them
to the front. Had there been no war
of independence many American lead
ers whose names we conjure with
would have passed their lives in the
obscurity of colonial politics. Not
every generation produces a hero
making crisis. If the I'nited States
had escaped the civil war, Grant
would have remained in the ranks of
the plain people, scarcely distinguish
able in the throng. In ordinary affairs
men may create opportunities for suc
cess. but tile military genius as a
rule, must swot the conflict in which
his laurels are to he won.
It is much the same with slide ! n't.
If no overshadowing statesman is now
in view in the countries named bv the
Spectator, it is probably for the reason
that c< millions have not reached the
critical stage which ‘develops the nian
for the hour. Every crisis breeds its
own hero soon or late. It is not safe .
to say that there are no “village
Hainndens,” no Washingtons, no Gar
ibaldis awaiting t lie summons to ap
pear upon the scene. There is much
latent, suppressed ability in every
country, biding its time. Some coun
tries are outside the sphere of stir
ring events. We know little of their
statesmen, however promising they
may be. It requires a very close stu
dent of contemporary history to name
the leading politicians of such a coun
try as Australia. The absence of men
of world-wide reputation in such coun
tries means that nothing is occurring
there to produce such men.
THE LIVELY LITTLE TROUT.
Jumping Up Through Spouts from
One Trough to Another
in a Hatchery.
Tiie hatching troughs of the Aquari
um's fish hatchery, which are set. tip on
the sides of one of the big pools there,
are arranged in step-downs, to promote
the circulation of the water through
them. Through a pipe in one end of an
upper trough the water flows into the
head of the next trough, set at a little
lower level, and from thesecond it flows
into the third in like manner, says the
New York Sun.
In the t wo upper troughs of this hatch
ry on Oi.c side there are at present lit
tie lake trout, and in the third trough
little brook (rout; but little brook trout I
are son, : i mes found til) among the little
lake live: in the highest trough.
Th little tallows jump from one
trough to another through the spouts
that ! ring the water down, which are
slightly curved pipes ot about an inch
or more in length, with a clear fall of
water of as much more from their lower
ends. '1 o get up the brook trout have to
jump am! swim against this fall and the
current in the pipe, for a distance that
altogether is considerably more than
i h ir own 1 :.gt h.
The I . ••s; of all the little brook
trout here, one that has exceeded ail
ihe rest ir.g;<>wth. is now about tw<> and
a half iuclie-i long This trout was found
the other day on the floor of the Aquari
um outsi the upjj(-1 one of the lake
trout troughs it swam up from the
third trough to the highest, and then
jumped out ovei the side of that on the
floor.
The fall ought to have killed the lit
tle trout, but it didn't, it was put back
into its own trough, and was aide there
to swim about all right, and it has been
a number of times since up into the up
per lake trout trough. But it doesn’t
jump out. of that any more.
