1S A SIGNAL A “WRNING 01-‘ TROUBLE

$01119 Wars ago by the aid of textbooks, a medical looselea; sys- l tem. a medical encyclopedia, my own experiences and those of other tilt}; ' ‘ans, I tried to find ‘out how many different conditions or ail- ments in the body could cause headache. I found over one hun- dred and twenty causes, and yet when one gets down w bare facts,

a headache Ls just a symptom of trouble somewhere in the body. It Ls as if Nature were trying to fell the ziidividtial that there was some- thing wrong, or he was doing somethzitg wrong. and the head- ache W35 the red light—the warn- lng-fo make him" stop and 1n- vetgate.

Nov.’ a headache may be due to same simple cause such as gas pressure from stomach and tn-t testlne, eye-strain. or to some’ serious condition such as harden-I lng of the bloodvessels lfl the brain t or a brain tumor. The headachel itself is due to the irritation of the , brain caused by either simple or‘ serious conditions. _

“A headache then is not a disease , ln itself. It ls onlv a sign and a‘ symptom of a disease somewhere‘ in the body. It may denote some- thing ins ntficani cr it may be the ' sign of a most serious illness. For this reason physicians regard headache as a serious manifesta- ron of a disturbance in a human" being. It ls- a warning on the paid of a body which says to its Owner. “There is something wrong v.';tli me; go to a physician and find out ‘ what it is".

The point Ls that when you have an occasional headache which you can trace to eating too much. ea’.-

The Slot Machine

(Halifax Chronicle) _ A high school principal in Okla-

homa, who believes tn a. little practical demonstration. managed to get he'd of a slot machine and took it. to his school. The pupils were assembled and one boy fed iilckles to the machine while l. Second jotted down the results on the lfackboard. There would come a spurt of wins, and then a flow of losses, but the lcsses were more than the wins. At the end of a. period it wax found that the ma- chine had sixty per cent of the nlckles played.

‘Then a polce officer, who was had in for the occasion. came for- ward and took off the back of the machine and showed the lads the machines innards. He showed them an adjufslng apparatus which was adjusted to a 60-40 basis. S0 lt made no difference how long they fed, if with nlckels, the resu't would be 60 to the machine and 40 to the players. The machine couldn't lose. Then he showed

could be regulated just as a watch ls regulated. A touch of the operator's hand and the percentage C0llld he changed. In some cues machines had been adjusted to 95-5.

"You doiri ltave to study mathe- matﬁcs to see itwugh that," was the vierclirf of the boys.

Surrender Not A Solution

(Globe and Mall)

Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agriculture, has ap- proached the Western drought pro- blem from a new side tn suggest-

llng transfer of settlers from the

stricken areas to idle Eastern lands. This movement ls taking place voluntarily on a limited

scale, and lt ls doubtful that the Minister views the proposal as mote than an expediency. Ii. would he discouraging to think of Prairie development tn terms ot flight.

If the suggestion serves to draw attention to the need of a more comprehensive andprnctlcal un- dentandlng of the fanning situa- tion it may prove constructive. Why ts Prince Edward Island

The facts seem to be L11,“ g colonizing the West little attention was paid to the development of | consuming population along with a producingbne, and to the m. trodiicflon of a type of agrteultun that. would make the farm houit as selfsiistalning as in the oldu Provinces.
