TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, FEBRUARY 25, 1909. A Wheat Hospital. AN GEB IS DANGEROUS. H Wrecks the Whale Bystem Tends te Shorten Life. and It la well known that a violent fit of temper affects the heart instantly, and rsycbophystrlsts have discovered the presence of poison In the blocd Imme diately after such outburst. This ex plains why we feel so depressed, ex hausted und nervous after any storm cf passion— worry. Jealousy or revenge —has swept through the mind, It bns left tn Its wake vicious mental poison and other harmful secretions In the brain and blocd. There is no constitution so strong but It will ultimately succnmb to the constant racking and twisting of the nerve centers caused by on uucon- trolled temper. Every time yon be come angry you reverse all of the nor mal mental and physical pro-esses. Everything In you rebels against pas sion storms: every mental faculty pro tests against their abuse. If people only realized wbnt havoc Indulgence In hot temper playa In their delicate nervous structure. If they could only see with the physical eyes the damage done as they can see wbat follows In the wake of a tornado, thev would not dare to get angry. When the brain cells are overheated from a flt of temper their efficiency Is seriously Impaired, If not absolutely ruined. The presence of the nngcr poi son. the shock to the nervous system. Is what makes the victim so exhausted and demoralized after loss of self con trol.—Orison Swett Marden In Success Magazine. THE EACK OF THE NECK. Mak* It Proof Against Drafts and Colds In the Head. "When I was a boy," said a doctor, “I didn't believe In drafts. 1 thought that they who Imputed colds to drafts were cranks. But one November night at a concert I felt all the even ing a strong draft on the back cf my neck. It was so strong It resembled a suction pump. 'Now,' said I to tny- self, 'we’ll see If this draft will glve yours truly a cold.' ” He shuddered. "For a week,” he said, "I was Hid up with so vile a cold that I couldn't breathe save with my mouth open. And now I am satisfied that nine out of every ten colds are solely due to a draft on tbe back of tbe neck. "I know bow to preveut such colds Hence I may practically say that 1 know how to prevent all colds. It is a fact that none of my patients, thanks to my method, know what a cold is. “They learn from me to do this—to bathe tbe back of tbe neck every morning In cold water. Thus the spot becomes hardened. It becomes draft proof. “And when a new patient, peculiarly sensitive to colds, visits me. my pecul iar treatment Is to blow on the back of his neck with a bellows for several days In succession. Tbe bellows. In conjunction with the Icy douche, frees him from all future susceptibility Thenceforth his winters pass without that horrid winter pest, a bad cold.”— New Orleans Tfmes-Democrat.

Too Much Quist, On one occasion the hustling and energetic archbishop of York. Dr Maclagan, wrote to the vicar In an outlying village suggesting that hr should lend his church for the purpose of. giving the clergy of the district a “quiet day” for meditation and frater nal reunion. The witty vicar of this sleepy hamlet in the wolds promptly replied: My Dear Lord Archbishop—Your very kind letter to hand. But what the people In thia village want moat In their spiritual life la not a "quiet day." but an earth- quake. —London Standard. An Appeal For Mercy. “Judge," said the prisoner. “I sup pose you're going to soak me." “You are a habitual offender." re plied the judge; “were caught with the stolen goods, and the court will have to do its painful duty.” “I don’t want to seem unreasonable,” replied the prisoner. “I don't mind a long sentence. I'm used to It. But say, judge, cut out the lecture that usually goes with IL won't you.”— Philadelphia Ledger. The Brute. “Tea, this room is dark, damp and positively uninhabitable.

In truth, shone so that one could almost see one's face In them. “You can see your face in them, can’t you?” said the miller. “And no wonder. They’ve been through drastic treatment—drastic. Smut is a nasty disease, a kind of mold, that changes the starch and gluten In wheat to a black powder.

An Astrologer's Letter. An astrologer's letter to President Van Buren forecasting tbe results of Ills election In 1840 Is I d tbe library >f congress and perhaps gives a crude Idea of some of the fallacies of our grandfathers. The following are some extracts: "In this horoscope the as- eudant directed to the semisquare of Mars would be In operation about the middle of tbe fourth year. October, 1785. and might cause sickness, » • • flux or hurt by wounds.” etc. * • • “I have opened the horoscope for Gen eral Harrison, which accords with the chief events of his past life and which If right be will not fill the office of president during tbe next term even If elected. And the danger I appre hend to yourself Is not from your pub lic opponents, but from those on whom you repose confidence.” Those who are superstitious may be Inclined to credit this star gazer with some meas ure of wisdom, for Harrison, although elected, died n month after bls Inau guration.—New York Post. Hom« Loving Montenegrins. Nowhere Is love of country more In tense than among tbe Montenegrins, to whom exile Is the greatest of pun ishments. When W. J. Stillman was there in tbe seventies all tbe free men were away fighting, aud he observed that when a messenger was wanted tbe official took a man out of tbe pris on and sent him off, with no fear that he would not return. One such mes senger was sent to Cattaro, In Aus trian territory, with a large sum of money for tbe bank, and be duly came back. Another asked a Russian at Cattaro to Intercede with Prince Nich olas for his release from prison. “But you are not in prison," said the Rus sian. “Oh," said the man, “I have only come down for a load of skins for So-and-so. but I must go Into pris on again when I get back to Cettlnje." One prison guard watched all the pris oners when they sunned themselves out of doors, and If be was called away a prisoner would take Ills rifle and act as sentry for the time. What Do They Cure? DIFFERENT STYLES. How Meredith and Browning Might Describe the Same Incident. If Browning and George Meredith were describing tbe same act they ¡night both be obscure, but their ob- ecu Titles would be entirely different. Suppose, for Instance, they were de- acribiug even so prosaic and material an act as a man being knocked down stairs by another man to whom he had given the lie. Meredith's descrip tion would refer to something which an ordinary observer would not see or at least could not describe. It. might be a sudden sense of anarchy In the brain of the assaulter or a stupefac tion aDd stunned serenity In that of the object of tbe assault. He might write: "Wainwood's ‘men vary In veracity' brought tbe baronet's arm up. He felt tbe doors of his brain burst and Wainwood a swift rushing of himself through air, accompanied with a clarity as of the annihilated." Meredith. In other words, would speak queerly because he was describ ing queer mental experiences. But Browning might simply be describing the material Incident of the man being knocked downstairs, and his descrip tion would run: What then? "You He” and doormat be low stairs Takes bump from back. This Is not subtlety, but merely a kind of Insane swiftness.—Gilbert K. Chesterton. BEARDED LADIES. A Parisian 8howman 8aya They Are Quite Numeroui. An Englishwoman who confesses to a mild mania for attending the street fairs common in and around Paris says that she Is always Impressed by the extraor.’.lnary number of bearded ladles among tbe attractions. "I was inclined to 'link that they were fakes.” she says in the London Gentlewoman, "but when I discovered that they were quite genuine my sur prise at this wonderful supply of phenomena grew stronger. And when a few days ago I saw at the fair In tbe Avenue d'Orleans a lady exhibited with a long flowing beard I could no longer withhold my curiosity. “I applied for Information to a gen tleman well known In the showman world and who acts as a kind of agent to the people owning shows, supply ing them with tbe necessary goods, human and otherwise. This gentle man appeared surprised at my ques tion. ’“Bearded ladles!’ be exclaimed. *1 can find as many ns I like. You have no Idea how many women, if they liked, could rlval men as regards whiskers and mustaches. But they are not anxious to enter into that kind of competition.' ’’ Winged Burglars. Buchner In bls “Psychic Life of Animals" speaks of thievish bees which. In order to save themselves the trouble of working, attack well stocked hives In masses, kill the sen tinels and the Inhabitants, rob tbe hives and carry off the provisions. After repented enterprises of this de scription they acquire a taste for rob bery and violence. They recruit whole companies, which get more and more numerous, and finally they form reg ular colonies of brigand bees. But it Is a still more curious fact that these brigand bees can be produced arti ficially by giving working bees a mix ture of honey and brandy to d'.Ink. Tbe bees soon acquire a taste for this beverage, which baa the same disas trous effect upon them aa upon men. They become ill disposed and irritable and lose all desire for work, and final ly, when they begin to feel hungry, they attack aud plunder the well sup plied hives. Abroad. Abroad Is a locality entirely sur- rounded by seasickness. In another view It Is a bourne more or less mys- terlous, bounded on Its farther side by your Income and on Its hither side by custom houses where you hare to de clare everything you bring back with you except a foreign accent and one change of hosiery. Abroad Is where— 1. They put a Labels all over your luggage and b. It all over you. 2.
