Neuralgia.
Neuralgia means nerve pain.
Neuritis means Inflammation of
the nerve. In neuralgia the pain
comes and goes. In neuritis tbe
ache Is steady and sticks closely
to the affected nerve. If the
nerve could be taken out and ex
amined we could find nothing
abnormal In the case of neural
jria. In neuritis the nerve w ould
be found to be Inflamed. The
question of what Is behind the
pain of neuralgia Is more Impor
tant than the answer to the cry
for relief. It must be remem
bered that neuralgia Is merely a
symptom, not a disease. Some
times malaria Is the underlying
cause. Other times It may be
due to alcoholism, diabetes, lead
poisoning, gout, rheumatism or
Iirlglit's disease. A diseased
tooth or a diseased ovary may
be responsible. In every case
treatment must Include treat
ment of the underlying cause.

He Lacked Concentration,
8ieaklng of a man who wag a failure
because of his lack of concentration
and his Inability to know liLs own mind
five minutes at a time, a captain tif in
dustry said he reminded him of a hunt
ing dog ho once owned:
"At Kimrlse the dog would start out
on his own book after deer. He would
Jump a buck and run Lira for miles.
When tbe buck was on the point of ex.
haUHtlou the hound's nostrils would
catch the taint in tho air where a fox
had crossed tho trail, and he would in
etautly decide that, after all, fox was
what lie had coino for, and he would
turn aside to pursue the fox. Perhaps
an hour later, when tho chase was
growing warmer every minute, Ids keen
nose would detect tho presence of a
rabbit, and he would go after tbe cot
tontail, with the Inevitable result that
by 4 o'clock In the afternoon that
hound would bo thirty, or forty miles
away from home hi a swamp wltb a
chipmunk treed!" Saturday Evening

George and Hia Lag.
lilt by bit the historical grubbers are
digging out the truth' about our im
mortal George. We have heretofore

ent troops with the arrival of ample
supplies of ammunition, which consist
ed of powder barrels filled with sand,
and now a .correspondent of the New

Free 8peech.
An old negro woman had lived with
a certuln family in the south for many
years. One day her mistress hud occa
sion to reprimand her qu'te sharply for
something that had gone wrong. Tbe
negress said nothing at tho time, but
a little later her voice could bo heard
In tho kitchen in shrill vituperation o.
everything and everybody, with a rat
tling accompaniment of pans and ket
tles. So loud became the clamor aiid
so vindictive the exclamations that
Mrs. C. went hurriedly down, to the
kitchen.
"Why, IJza," she began in amaze
ment, "who on earth are you talking
to""
"I ain't talkln' to nobody," the old
Degress replied, "but I don't keer who
