"But perhaps, Ellen, you'll find it a bit lonely if I leave you here alone?” James appeared a fow moments ago at the door of this house across the lane to ask, and then despite our assurances to the contrary. he added-, "You know It seems rather dreary at our own house tonight - Guess I'll Just cane in and lie a while on the couch.

She slept this afternoon on a bed made when James spread his jacket on a warm grassy spot in ii distant field. she had come there with her grandfather to catch rides on the roller, as with it he smoothed the last sown grain-field. And lulled by the rhythm of the machine, at length became drowsy and finally fell asleep in his arms, and in conse- quence was tucked up for an in- terval on this earthy bed. "The poor little dear!" James murmur- ed patting her dusty curls at supper-time, "without. a mother or grandmother to care for her- only a gran'daddiy!" And a smile that expressed the height of sat- isfaction over her circumstances stole across her begrlmed fea- tures. and "We had a lovely after- noon!" she breathed.

HEADACHE DUE TO DISTURB- ANCI OF THE NOSE

It is agreed there are not less than 160 known causes of head- ache. Physicians today take a headache seriously, not because headache is considered dam uun, but because they know that con- stant pr frequent headaches can "wear down" the strongest nerves. Marry cases of headache are be- lieved to be due to pressure of some kind-gas pressure, pressure or cer- tain nerves from deformities, de- fects or injuries.

- Pain or ache in forehead is often thought to be due to defective vis- ion. It is of interest to learn that defective vision is not the common. est cause of an acne in the fore- head above the eyes; such a pain is more often due to disturbances of the nose and the sinuses adjoining it. Headache due to gas pressure from stomach and intestine occurs ymost often in middle of forehead land also at back of head. In ”Irish Journal of Medical iscience." Dublin, Dr. W. M. Moliin- son states that, as pointed out in .1893 by Dr. Gowers, pain felt just. -above the eyebrows is sometimes due to disease or diseases of the isinuses immediately above the eye- ybrovvs but is often due to inflam- yreation or irritation of the lining of the nose. Experimental studies were carried out on the walls of 'the nose and sinuses to dlsooverl .the places or sites at which pain is produced. In no case did stimu- lating these spots in the nose cause pain in back of head. For years marry physicians have believed that stimulation of lining of nose was a cause of pain at bax of head.

Dr. Moliinson classifies nose or nasal headaches into (1) those in connection with the walls of the nose. (2) those in connection with the sinuses adyoining the nose and (3) those due to the neuralgias. Simple pressure on the middle tur- binal or turbinate bone in nose is often regarded as the most common cause of headache due to a nose condition. This pressure may be due to a. polyp or other growth. Pressure occurs against the branch of the large blood vessel supplying the head and neck.

The lesson from the above is that when a headache is just above the eyebrow or lower part of forehead, it is often due to some disturbance in the nose.

Roses are blooming, the frog- rant yellow hardy Agnes rose. a Canadian organization, and one of the best requiring no winter pro- tectlon, and the double pink hedge rose also fragrant and hardy, mak- ing the garden lovely after the Tulips have gone.

These are only a few of the many varieties of Colum- bine. Several of the different va- rieties are now blooming in the garden and they are very easily grown from seed, saw the seed any time in June or July and they will be good plants to transplant to their permanent places in early Fall.

In shrubs the Viburnum is grand this year, and the common name is Snowball tree: there are many varieties of this hardy shrub and all of them are very suitable shrubs for our climate.

The perennial Cornflower is blooming and garden visitors are always attracted to the rare, rich, almost ultramarine blue of this variety of Cornflower. The bot- anical name is Centaurea Montana (of the mountain) and it is a nai- ive of the Caucasus and the Py- renees.

It is of sturdy growth with grey green. downy young foliage which loses most of ii: silver hairs, and turns greener with age; it pro- duces seed very freely and so it is easy to get a large number of plants; it also comes in white. pink. rose, purple and lemon col- ors. The generic name was given to Cenlaurea because it was be- lieved that one of the species of the genus was used by Chiron the Centaur to cure his wounds. The pet name of Blue-Bottle alludes to

the bottle-like formation of the flower bracts. Evergreen hedges have been

trimmed and the cedars have been sheared making them look neat and cared for; this is always done at the time of the new growth when it is soft and fragrant.
