KxpeHefiee of a Traveler In Creeainf the Gobi Desert. Many difficulties must tbe traveler contend with when crossing tbe desert of Gobi, and one of these to the almost overwhelming desire to sleep. Hans Dorlng write* In tbq North China Daily News: M Hltherto I have thought that traveling by carts over stony roads and staying In Chinese Inns at night was tbe hardest thing a foreign traveler In China was called upon to endure. l«it since I have traveled with a caravan of camels I have changed my opinion. The monotony of the des ert by day and the bed of camels’ sad dles at night, the evil smell of camels and tbe slowness of their drivers and tbe acrid, choking smoke of tbe little fire on which one’s food to cooked— none of these things to so trying to the foreigners ns tbe sleepiness which attacks one In this high region. This to me was n real torture. Traveling through the cold night with no other cocn|>any- than dull Chinese, who seem to sleep while walking alongside tbe camels or while sltving on their backs, and being weighed down by heavy sleepiness Is the worst thing I have endured. “Yon sit on your bone and, in aptte of every effort, fall aaleep. Presently yon wake up iod find yourself on the ground with your bone standing be wildered at your aide, wondering whether you are alive or dead. Then you try to keep youraelf awake by walking and talking a bit to the camel driven, but you aoon find that they are just as sleepy as youraelf. A few words are exchanged and then you are too tired to open your mouth to talk or even to think of anything but sleep, sweet sleep. Ob, for Just a few min utes there at tbe roadside In the soft sand! But, no, you must go on and fight against this de*lre. It Is too dan gerous to sleep by tbe roadside on tbe ground. The caravan cannot wait and your servant would not watch over you; be would aoon fall aaleep like youraelf. The wolvee would then have an easy time. “Yet In spite of all this reasoning you feel as If you were drawn to the ground by the power of a thousand ,-troiig magnets and soon yield to sleep again. Suddenly your watchful horse, wliose reins you have kept slang around your neck—this Is a wise thing to do—palls up, starts and jerks you wide awake. You Jump up, not knowing where you are for some sec onds, but you see your horse trembling sad realise that danger to near. “For a few minutes you are fully awake and feel glad and refreshed. Yon jump 00 your horse and catch np with the caravan, which has gone a few II (s H to 054 yards) ahead. “After another ten II or so sleep creep# on again like a huge boa con strictor embracing you In its Irresisti ble grasp. The same fight has then to be fought over again. Then at last tha caravan arrives at the halting placa for tha night.” Sick Headache. This disease to caused by a derange ment of the stomach. Take a does of dhomberlaia’a Stomach sad Liver Tablets to correct thU disorder and tbe sick headache will disappear. F01 sola by John M Klein. A Comb In the Claw. Many birds possess a useful comb In the claw of tbe middle toe of the foot This has been noticed In owls, night jars, herons, bitterns, cormorants, gao- nets, etc. It baa been explained as a means of holding the prey securely. The comb to sometimes replaced by a curved blade with to*th. which run along tha Inner side of tbe daw. Such a blade to found In rasorbills, wild ducks, gulls, starlings end many other birds.
