Perhaps Nan's head was really aching, perhaps the morning's excitement had brought on an attack of neuralgia, but whatever her ailment, she certainly made the worst of it, groaning and rolling her eyes to the ceiling as one in mortal agony; for she was wise enough to realise that nothing would take Maud so much out of herself as the necessity of waiting upon another.
"The common law," said Webster, "is common-sense," which simply means the common opinion of the most influential people. Much more to blame than John Hathorne were those infatuated persons who deceived themselves into thinking that the pains of rheumatism, neuralgia, or some similar malady were caused by the malevolent influence of a neighbor against whom they had perhaps long harbored a grudge.

"It is your mother who summons you home, no doubt. She is mistress in her own house, of course." "You would not say that if you knew Captain Winstanley."
And so Miss D spent the few years next succeeding her graduation in conflict with dysmenorrhoea, headache, neuralgia, and hysteria.

It may not be unprofitable to give the history of one more case of this sort.
He wasn't hit, but the explosion rendered him unconscious for a time, and when he recovered, his neuralgia had gone. His name is Palmer, so now we call the German shells 'Palmer's Neuralgia Cure." The amusing story of a long march afforded some mirth in the trenches when it got to be known.
