Internal cramps, or colic, swimmer's cramp and writer's cramp are affec- tions of an entirely different nature. A cramp. In this restricted sense, IR e sudden, painful and very strong con- traction of a small part of a muscle; it does not usbally cause any move- ment In the effected limb, for to do that a contraction of nearly the entire muscle is necessary, and then we have what is called R spasm, or a convul- sion. , • • The contraction Is involuntary, al- though persons who are subject to Cramps sometithes bring them on by a voluntary movement, such as stretch- ing. The early -morning cramp Is of- ten brought on th the stretching to which one is prone on awaking. Very commonly the cramp comes on during sleep, and the intense pain awakens the sufferer with is start. The affected part of the muscle forms a hard knot • and if a large part of the muscle Is Involved the limb may be drawn up. Children and the aged suffer more Often with cramps than do persons in middle life. In children the catnip Is banally violent exercise, such as run• rang and jumping, but In the elderly ft tendency to cramps is often emitted by Incipient hardening of the arteries.

Quite Possible, Though It Mud Be Ad. mitted They Are Not Altogether Desirable Footwear. When things eoute to the worst every day is going to be likes FV 1 daY- the atmosphere will be crowded - with the aroma of fish. There is a scarcity of leather, as everytstely knows, and, that being so, tanners are making a dili- gent aearch for -other. substitutes: 'snit new sources of supply. Experts de- clare that the skins of aquatic crea- tures offer a practically undeveloped resource, anti it is not unlikely that be- fore long we shall be covering our ex- trefnities with the skins of the man- eating titlark and the marred eorifish, The reason such skins have not here- tofore been utilized for leather is not because they are not perfeetly well adapt's, for such use, hut only because the skins of land animals haVe been so plentiful. Disciples of Iralak Wal- ton dismite the experts about the cur- ing of tishskins. They say once a fish always a fish.

While the new food campaign was being , talked about at Seattle, Ram dolph L. Summerfleld of Singapore, who has 11M - forty years In the Malay States, arrived on a govertunent mis- sion. He Is a civil engineer. \The world's tive-stoek market has been dec- imated,\ said Mr. Summertield, \hut if worst comes to worst and there's a' real meat famine, the jungles of the Malay States can supply vast quanti- ties of meats and fats. Our forests are full of monkeys of all kinds. Our streams teem with crocodiles. The huge anaconda Ariake Is numerous and prolific. Monkey meat, cooked French or Spanish style, billed on the menu as veal, would make an epicure yearn for more. There's no disagreeable sen- timent about killing a crocodile or the boa constrictor. Portions of the 'croco's' tall are extraordinarily good, and the boa constrictor is a culinary favorite -in India.
