MUSCULAR CRAMP.

Massage Said to Be the Only Certain Rem- edy For the Trouble.

Muscular cramp, muscular exhaustion, or my@lgia, as it is variously called in common and medical parlance, is often confounded with neuralgia and rheuma tism. ‘There are undoubtedly many in- stances of muscular cramp in which one or the other of the Jast named conditions is present. But in these cases the exhaus- tion depends upon the existing neuralgic er rheumatic condition and disappears uncer treatinent of the original trouble.

Myalgia—tho word is derived from the Greek, and means muscular pain—arises from exhaustion of the substance of the muscle. This loss of vitality is in most eases tho result of subjecting the muscle te excessive or long continued activity under favorable conditions.

The amount of vitality which a muscle consunies when in action is, of course, proportionate to the amount of work re- quired of it, and under normal conditions the supply furnished by the bleed is suffi. cient for the need. Under adverse condi tiqns, however, there is no opportunity offered for the complete recovery of the muscle from its labors, and a strain is the result. The muscle feels lame and sore, and not infrequently ene can almost im- agine that in some way it bas become tied into knots.

Myalgia may attack any muscle, though there are certain ones which, by reason of their location, are endangered more than others. Senamstresses are very liable tc have cramp in the muscles of the shoulder on account of the steady application and confinement necessitated by the nature of their occupation.

A favorite seat for myalgia, as most ot us can testify from painful experience, is in the ealves of the legs. The pain is espe- cially severe on lying down at night, and may be so greafas even to draw up the limbs.

Massage offers the only certain relief from myalgia. The rubbing should be brisk to insure an abundant circulation of blood tothe distressed muscles, and for this reason also it should be in the direc- tion of the vessels through which the blood flows.

Liniments of varions kinds may be tried, or, what is better, the external appli- cation of alcohol may be resorted to. Cloths wrung out of hot water, with a teaspoonful or so of laudanum sprinkled on them, and placed directly over the ach- ing muscles, are useful to ease the pain.

When the trouble is in the muscles of the leg, hot footbaths may be employed to restore the circulation in the limbs and to ‘draw out’’ the pain. The observation of general hygienic measures should not be forgotten where there is a tendency to muscular cratun —Youth’s Comnusnion.

Claudia’s Relation.

Little Claudia Hill, the granddaughter of Senator Money, is a little girl of many quaint sayings. One day a friend of the: family came to the house, and while wait- ing for the young ladies to appear entered into conversation. He asked herif she loved him.

‘*No,’”’ she said gravely. anybody ‘cept my relations.’’

‘*But you love God, don’t you? He ain’t a relation.”’

‘“‘Why, yes, he is. He’s my heavenly Father.’’—Washington Capital.

**I don’t love

He Knew What It Meant.

A mother was assisting her little boy with his geography when they came to the word ‘‘desert,’’ which he could not under- stand. His mother explained it was a bar- ren place—a place where nothing would grow. The boy’s face brightened up at her words, and, feeling sures that he had solved the difficulty, she asked him to explain the meanirg, and the prompt answer came, ‘‘Ma feyther’a bald head !’’—Scot- tish Nighvs.

Ye Finds in Paine’s Celery Compound a New Life.

‘n One of our large Canadian cities there resides one of Canada’s merchant orinees, who Cap atany moment write his ‘heqne for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

vue time ago this mercbant prince

~avery sick man. Liver troubles, » dache and ineomnia were fast pulling dowu a strong physical frame. Doctors ‘owed great care and attention on their wealthy patient, but no cure came to cheer /« 3 In fact no perceptible benefit was felt after months of treatment.

A voyage tothe south of Europe wis then undertaken, and weeks were spent it oe cf the most famous watering places, hut 10 change for the better was experi-

need, Returning home, the merchant nrince received a visit from his faith‘u

pastor, who strongly urged the use of Paine’s Celery Compound, a mediciue that | ad some vears before cured a mem- ber of his family. The good advice of the ministerial friend was promptly taken; the grat healing comround was used, with the result that in five weeks the sick man snd his family were overjoyed wit! proofs of recovery and new health. Resttel sleep was restored, digestion was imprcv- ed and a brighter look came into the eyes and fae, Atter four mooths’ careful us of Paine’s Celery Compound and proper dieting, every deadly and _ treachervu- symptom of diseare had vanished, snd the merchart prince was a new man.

What a wendrous and happy proof of the life-saving virtues of Paine’s Celery Compound! Surely the statement is pow- erful envugh to lift all poor and helpless eufferers from the dark pit of despair.

This story of a true cure waa related by an intimate friend of the eured man, who gave permission to refer to it publicly, withont giving the name of the once-dying merchant.

A Surprise Farty.

A New York woman, only a day re- turned from securing a Dakota divorce, was holding a reception in celebration of the event when a messenger arrived announcing that he had a present for her. The large parcel on his arm secured his admittance. The hostess stepped for- ward to take the package, but instead was served by the messenger, a lawyer’s clerk, with a summons and complaint, under thé late decision of the New York supreme court, in a suit for separation and custody of their son begun by her husband. The woman fainted, and the party broke up in confusion.

pens - THE DARK MANS” 2.2

Rose o' the world, she came te my bed

And changed the dreams of my heart and head, For joy of mine she left grief of hers

And garlanded me with a crown of furze.

Rose o’ the world, they go ont and in

And watch me dream and my mother spin, And they pity the tears on my sleeping face, While my soul’s away in a fairy place.

Rose o’ the world, they have werds galore, And wide’s the swing of my mother’s door, And soft they speak of my darkened eyes, But what do they know who are all so wise?

jose o’the world, the pain you give

{is worth all days that a man may live, Worth all shy prayers the colleens say

Qn the night that darkens the wedding day.

fose o’ the world, what man would wed When he might dream of your face instead? Migat go to his grave with the blessed pain Of hungering after your face again?

Rose o' the world, they may talk their fil), For dreams are good, and my life stands stil, While their lives’ red ashes the gossips stir, buiti my fiddle knows, and I talk to her. —Norah Hopper.

THE BAGPIPE.

Something About the National Musical Instrument of Scotland.

The bagpipe of Scotland is the only in- strument of which it may be said that it is distinctly national. The violin, the flute, the horn and other instruments are common to many nations, but the bagpipe is peculiar to Scotland, and although it does not now occupy the position it once did it is found in no other country.

In the days when the notorious Rob Roy committed his depredations, when the Vich Ian Vohrs lived socurely in their highland fastnesses and kept up their dig- nified social position—in the stirring times of which Sir Walter Scott has told us—ithe bagpipe player was one of the importent personages in the chieftain’s retinue, and these may be considered as the palmy days of the instrument.

Within the region more strictly known as the highlands its shrill note was the first sound that fell on the ears of infancy; it charmed the rude Caledonians in times of jey and comforted them in scenes of mourning; it animated theif? heroes in battle and welcomed them back from their conflicts, and wherever their chiefs went it accompanied them, even to the grave.

The effect of this wild instrument on the highland soldiers is marvelous. Above the rattle of musketry and the turmoil and roar of the battlefield the inspiring notes of the pibroch have spoken erncour- agement to the Highlanders and led them bravely forward. At the battle of Quebec, when the troops were retreating in disorder and the conflict had a most discouraging aspect, the general com- plaint was about the demoralization im Frazer’s corps.

‘*Sir,’’ said an officer, ‘‘you did very wrong in forbidding the pipers to play. Nothing inspirits the Highlanders se much. Even now they would be ef some use. ’’

‘*Let them blow, then,’’ said the gen- eral.

So the pipers started a well known air, and the highlanders rallied and bravely returned to the charge.

Some say that the bagpipe came down from the Romans; others, that it came through the northern nations of Scatland. At any rate, it seems to have always been one of the musical instruments of the Celtic race.

The pipe mentioned in ancient history was simply what is known as the shep- herd’s reed. After a time a bug was add- ed and subsequently the drones or bur- dens. There are four forms of the modern bagpipe —the great highland bagpipe, which is blown by tho player, the drones being placed over the shoulder; the low- land bagpipe, which is provided with a bellows for supplying the wind; the

Northumberland bagpipe, which is small- er and sweeter in tone than the former two, and the Irish bagpipe, which is a much more complicated instrument.—, Philadelphia Times.

A Lucky Mistake.

**You’ve heard of a cripple being beaten with his own crutch,’’ remarked the man who has reached that degree of fortune which imposes nothing more arduous than the clipping of coupoiis and the collection of rents. ‘‘Something very like that hap- pened me when I first went te Denver, at. the time things were humming there. 1. was doing well and always haye heen a good deal of a crank in the inatter of dress. My clothes had to be made at the highest priced establishment and By footwear at the fanciest shoemaker's, I had fallen in love with the daughter, of one of the wealthiest citizens, and she reciprocated.

“One eventful evening I called on the stern father to gain his censent, with the possibility of a blessing thrown in. i found him smoking on a rustic bench in the shade and saw in his comfort a har- binger of good tidings. But he was hot headed, I was pertly independent, and the interview terminated by his kicking me across about an acre of lawn to the side- walk.

“Iwas so humiliated that I began ar- rangements for leaving town. at once. Among other things, I called at the shoe maker’s for a pair of fine boots with kid tops and patent leather trimmings. After the proprietor had searched for a time he suddenly shoved his glasses up, looked foolish and said: ‘Silverton must have your boots. He called for his the other evening when I was busy, and I just pointed to this corner, where the two pairs stood together.’

‘Silverton was the man I had honored by asking him to be my father-in-law. I hastened to his residence to have those boots or another row. The old fellow was
