The Lancet observes " The increased and apparently increasing frequency of neuralgic headache among women must needs have a cause. There is one of singular simplicity, and quite obvious, which has been overlooked and to which it is worth while to draw attention. The pain experienced is generally located in one or mote of the branches of the second cervical nerve, very commonly those terminating in the scalp at the occiput. As a matter of fact, tbe nerves of the scalp are irritated by the hair being drawn tightly back and pnt on a strain, not as a whole, in which case the strain would be spread over a large area of the surface, but by small bundles of hair which are pulled back and held in place by hairpins. Belief is often consciously experienced as a result of removing the hairpins, but this has only a temporary and par* till effect. The injury done is lasting, if not permanent, in its consequences. The present style of dressing tbe hair should be discontinued, as it probably, in part at least, accounts for the extreme prevalence of a form of suffering which is both intractable and distressing.” Tbe report that the construction of the Manawatu Gorge line is to be delayed, and the tunnels and bridges omitted in the con* tracts now under consideration, is, f iys tbe Post, incorrect Some modifications in tbe specifications may be made before tbe contract is signed, which v.-ill probably be early next month, but tl use will be with a view to hastening instea .' of delaying the ultimate completion of the line It may, for instance, be found desirabl. to proceed with the Fohangina Bridge before the tnnnele are made, and this will prob: bly be provided for The construction of ibis bridge, it is expected will take place in 'wo yean
