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 causes, such as worry, anxiety, over-work and excesses of various kinds. In cases of this kind, so common in this enervating elimate, the first impulse is to resort to stimulants, which may give tomporary relief, but wherever there is stimulation there is bound to be a reaotion, which leaves the sufferors in a far worse condition than they were before. To this fact may be ascribed more than one half of tho break downs which are 20 frequently brought to our notice in the Far East. A cup of
