WHAT IS FATIGUE?
Thar* la a U«|r«« of rhjitcal WMrliaM
Which la Dttuffrou*.
Fatigue is the natural result of labor
and as such is a periodic symptom with
which every healthy person is familiar,
says the Youth's Companion. It is ons
of the laws of organic life that periods
of relaxation shall succeed periods ot
activity. The heart itself is normally
in repose for about one-third oi the
time coiwumcd by each beat—a fact in
which there is something particularly
suggestive and interesting, since physi-
ologists agree that about one-thira «l
the twenty-four should be devoted te
sleep. Lffo is made up of a series ol
vibrations in which tension and rest
succeed each other. The heart vibrates
about seventy timee a minute; tho vi-
brations of the respiratory organ* oc-
cur about sixteen times in the same
period; while tho vibrations of the
whole organism may be said to com-
plete their circle ouce In twenty four
hours. Abnormal fatigue, a state ap-
proaching exhaustion, occurs when ons
attempts to alter nature's rhythm,
| when the hours of tension are made to
encroach upon those which 6hould be
devoted to rest, when muscle and nerve
already fatigued are driven to further
exertion. Fatigue of a kind known as
overtraining results, in the case of the
athlete, In heart weakness and short-
ness of breath—"loss of wind," as It is
called; while tho long-continued fatlgu®
occasioned by excessivo application to
professional or business pursuits re-
sults in nervous prostration or even in
paralysis. While excessive fatiguo is
in Itself unwise, one of the chief dan-
gers which result from It is that com-
monly indicated by the term "catching
cold." Thus the danger of sitting in s
draft or on the damp ground is many
times doubled after great exertion. The
application of heat to the surface is a
more logical procedure after extreffis
fatigue. Loss of sleep is one of tho first
symptoms of abnormal fatigue. Ha-
bitual insomnia from this cause is to
bo treated in only one way, by abjoiuts
rest.
A Mountain Climbing Kullroid.
One of the most recently opened
mountain railways in Switzerland is
the Stanserhorn road, which is one of
particular interest. Tho road is con-
structed in throe parts, each at an an-
gle with each other, the gradients be-
ing in some instances as high as 60
degrees. Each incline Is operated by
cables, driven by independent electrio
hoisting engines. Tho current to op-
erato the electric hoists is generated
by dynamos located some five miles
distant, and driven by turbines actuat-
ed by the mountain torrent. Tho plant
also supplies light to the hotels and
the search lights on the mountain top*
