BRAIN-FAG!
BRAIN-FAG is an expression used to convey the idea of that condition of the brain where it is tired, worn-out'or broken down from various cantes, such as worry, anxiety, over-work and excesses of various kinds. In cases of this kind, so common in this onervating allmate, the first impulse is to resort to stimulants, which may give temporary relief, but wherever there is stimulation there is bound to be a reaction, which leaves the sufferers in a far works condition than they were before. To this fact may be ascribed more than one half of the break downs which are so frequently brought to our notice in the Far East... A cup of
