Gordon Velloy Rood, In the interest of pub

A headache is not a disease, but
a warning indicating that some-
tning is wrong somewhere in the
body. It is purely a symptom and
only a thorough examination will
reveal the cause.
There are many kinds of head-
acnes, borne headaches may indi
cate that a serious illness is in the
offing, especially when fever ac
companies them. Children's diseas
es, infantile paralysis, influenza,
meningitis and olher contagious
diseases begin with a headache.
The ache may be located in dif
ferent parts of the head, its loca
tion usually indicates the part of
the body from which the headache
originates,
To many people, excitement or
any emotional disturbance will
cause a headache. Fear, worry,
overwork, loss of ' sleep or any
other condition that saps the in
dividuals vitality may result in a
headache. In such cases the vic
tim' reserve of vital energy is
usually below par and the least
deviation from the sufferer's nor
mal life results In a headache. The
pain centers on top of the head.
High blood pressure, by forcing
blood through tfie vessels of the
head, will cause a pain at the base
of the brain. Hardened arteries
having lost their elasticity, fail to
expand as normally required at
every heart beat. This resistance
usually results in a headache.
Low blood pressure, resulting
from a weakened heart or lack of
sufficient nerve force to regulate
the circulation, causes a deficiency
of blood to the brain tissues. The
Kaln will be located on top of the
ead. Sudden changes in blood
pressure cause headaches. ,
Migraine is a violent, paroxys
mal headache, which recurrs with
regular frequency, usually affect
ing one side of the face only. It
is splitting in character, lasts
many hours and usually ends up
in a vomiting spell. The ejected ma
terial consists mostly of biliary
fluid. Attacks of migraine usually
appear at the time of puberty and
disappears at the menopause.
This indicates its relation to the
reproductive organs. There are ap
proximately five million migraine
sufferers in this country. The larg
est percentage of sufferers are
women.
That boring pain above the eye
or in me eneck Done, worse in
the morning, usually indicates si
nus trouble. Pain at the back of
the head may mean eye strain or
weak eyes. Allergic headaches
manifest themselves alter eating
certain foods. Hunger headaches
and indigestion headaches indicate
an over sensitive nervous system.
Toxic headaches are very com
mon and may be caused by
an over burdened digestive tract
and constipation. Too much food
as well as too much drinking may
leave the patient with a hangover.
Kidney grouble is often me cause
of a headache. Many headaches
are caused by congested muscles,
tight ligaments, a strain, a fall
or other injuries may be the
cause, (Paid Adv.)

Peat Moss Sale
Sees Price War
A price war flared Friday over
the sale of peat moss by
Meyer and the Douglas County
Flour Mill.
When the war ended Friday after
noon, each company had sold a car
load. Douglas County Flour Mill
closed with a $1.95 per bale price
with a free sack of flour thrown
in. Fred Meyer's final price was
$1.89 a bale, but the supply was
gone before the price could be put
into effect,
Fred Meyer started Friday morn
ing at $3.69 per bale, or 10 at
$3.49 each. The Four Mill set its
morning price at $3.65. Fred Mey
er, which boasts it won't be under
sold, cut its price and the slashes
continued all day.
By 2:30 the Four Mill was giving
away sacks of flour with purchas
es. An estimated 50 to 60 sacks
were presented to customers.
Both companies sold directly
from railroad box cars. ,
By about 4 p.m. Douglas County
Flour Mills were sold out. Fred
Meyer lasted until 5:15.
Whether the war would continue
with the next shipments of peat
moss was purely speculative.
Robert Bashford, manager of
Douglas County Flour Mills, said
a new shipment is expected next
week. Sales will start. at the regu
lar $3.65 price, he said.
E. A. Wahl, manager of Fred
Meyer, said another shipment is
expected "sometime In the future."
It will be sold, he said, at the
regular price of $3.69 per bale.
