Show I "BKAIN EAG" HEMEDY M SOME GOOD ADVICE FOR CHRONIC B SUFFERERS. H Disease Seems to Have Predilection H for Those Who Have No Particular H Brains to Fag Recipe That Is 1 Claimed to Be Infallible. B The San Francisco Nows Letter H ' doesn't bcllcvo In brain fag. It ex H plolts tho so-called disease In a man- H ncr altogether Its own; a manner H mado popular by tho distinguished edl- m tor of that coast publication, Freder- H Ick Marriott. This publication la ques- B tlon has novor yet been afraid to say what It meant, and Its conclusions on Bl any subject are worth attention, If only to catch a fresh point of view. Drain fag Is a frequent subject of Hi discussion. Hero at tho East we fro- qtiently hear of cltlzons falling by tho waysldo because they nro beset by this Insidious clfQculty, and this Is HJ' tho moro apparent, tho careful ob- Hi server belloves, among those who have Hi no particular brains to fag. Tho source Hi, of the prevalent complaints about tho Hi spread of thin disease we find them Hi chiefly In religious papers and In nam- Hb by-pamby society Journals plainly Hi suggests tho question whether tho ro- Hl cent discovery of tho hookworm, as Hi , the bacillus of laziness Is called, has Hi not some connection with this sudden Hb epidemic of brain fag. Tho brain Is a HB most rcnsonnbln us well us n reason- Hi lng organ. Its hnblt Is to glvo exceed- HB lngly little, trouble. The eye, tho Hi stomach, ovon tho useful hand, Is a Hb poor and troublcsomo Instrument com- Hi pared with tho brain. Nobody knows Hi just how tho brain does Its work, but HB ordinarily It goes on doing It without HB any fuss whatevor. Now and then, to HB bo sure, It appears to bo raising a HB great disturbance. Its plaint of agony HB on such occasions is heard through BH the whole system, nut tho chances HB arc that It Is moroly fighting somo BH other organ's battlo tho stomach's, HB probably, or very likely tho liver, or It HB may bo that cold feet have sent an tin- HB due flow of blood to the head. As to HB becoming "brain fagged," It Is ox- HB trmcly raro that tho hardest work HB tires tho train out. Tho seat of tho HB trouble Is not there. Tho brain grows HB brlgbtor by work. It was mnde for HB tall. It works while wo sleep, and BH doe.s not seem to mind that. Nino HB times out of ten those, who think thoy HB have tired brains simply have tltcd HB i consciences, or much moro customar- HB i Ily, weary and sadly overworked stom- HB nchs. Or clso they have tlioso samo HB , redoubtnblo and pcstlforous gcnnB, HB i tho hookworms of lazlno33. Tho very HB excellent Mall and Express of New HB York recontly found that tho hook- HB worm had solzed upon all too many HB of Its stafT, and It sot about applying HB a euro. It gives tho following rcclpo: BHj "Tako a largo dose of determination HB! every morning, fortified with a cold HB bath on rising, and followed up by an BH hourly dose of persistence."
