fhe Way This Painful Narva Traubia
Should Ba Traatad.
A sufferer from neuralgia ought
to seek the advice o f a physician at
once, fo r no one but a physician
can tell what causes the pain. ‘
. I f the neuralgia is the “ sympto
matic” form, caused by some organic
trouble, o f which it ia a symptom,
treatment must be directed to the
removal o f the umierlyin^ disease.
If, on the other Hand, it is caused
by functional disturbance, such as
malnutrition, debility or anaemia, or
ia the result o f exhausting illness,
rheumatism or malaria, the treat
ment must aim at building up the
general system.
Again, neuralgia may be what ia
called a “ reflex” —that is, a warn
ing o f something wrong in the ad
jacent parta. Then the region of
the aching nerve must be searched
for the cause. It may be a matter
for the dentist, the oculist or the
aryngologist. When the tooth has
>een filled, the eyes properly fitted
with glasses or the nasal cavity at
ended to the neuralgia will prompt-
y disappear.
Whatever the cause o f the pain,
the general treatment must correct
any errors o f daily life. The diet
must be full and nourishing and
contain enough both o f fluids and
o f fata.
Many neurasthenic pa
tients never get enough o f either o f
these elements. In some obstinate
cases a complete rest in bed is most
effective, especially if combined
with a judicious and carefully watch
ed d ie t
Neuralgic patients often suffer
from digestive disturbances, and if
they are simply told to eat more
food they are in danger o f adding
severe gastric disturbances to their
other troubles.
For this reason
stubborn cases o f neuralgia often
improve if treated away from home
at a good health resort, where they
are under constant supervision.
In these places, also, other form s
o f relief, such as hydrotherapy and
electricity, can conveniently be
used. When the case ia severe enough
to call for drugs the coustant over
sight o f the physician is essential
Narcotics should be used only as a
last resort, and the patient should
never administer them to himself.-

It ia natural to assume that cer
tain peats belong, in their deadly
irfection, to modern times only.
ut such is not the case with mos
quitoes. According to Dr. Howsrd
of the department o f agriculture,
the foremost authority on what has
been called “ the New Jersey ca
nary,” his researches indicate that
the inhabitants o f ancient Greece
were sometimes forced to abandon
their dwellings to avoid the attacks
o f mosquitoes.
The citixena o f Mionte, s rich city
o f Ionia, fled from the mosquitoes
to Mileta, and Pergamo, a beautiful
city in Asia Minor, waa abandoned
for the same reason. Sapor, king o f
Persia, was compelled to raise tha
siege o f Nisi bis by a plague ofpnats.
Humboldt says* that in certain re
gions o f South America the inhab
itants pdas the night buried in sand,
which covers them to the depth o f
three or four inches, leaving out
only the head, which ia protected by
a cloth.
There is even a mosquito story
hich has the hardihood to attack
the veracity o f George Washington,
or possibly that o f a contemporary
tourist. Isaac Weld, in hia “ Travels
Through North America,” says, in
reference to Skenesborough, N. Y .,
that mosquitoes were very ferocious
and plentiful there.
“ General
Washington told me,” he adds, “ that
he never was so much annoyed by
mosquitoes in any part o f America
as in Skenesborough. They used to
bite through the thickest boot.”
Now, the boots o f those days were
very thick, and mosquitoes were
probably, so far as structure goes,
much as they are today. Moreover,
the Father o f Hia Country conic
not lie, but perhaps Mr. Weld could,
or, more probably, one o f the gen
tleraen may have indulged a sense
of humor.— New York Press.
