an ambitious young man. had many very
bright hopes of the future, and was gene

times the great highway of life seemed
darkened, and the star ofhope shone fee
bly, OH his path. But George was hon
est, and Messrs. Moore & Reese had long
since come TO the conclusion that he was
Just the clerk for them. .aIm haEl
So much for George henox. ~ n9at
Some distance from Messrs. Moore d
Reese's. away downithe street-a quarter
of mile. perhaps-and nearly opposite
Georges boarding place, was a milIinef's
shop-a'real fancy shop; with a hand
some sign, large windows, with splendid
curtains on the inside, and displaying a
rich and beautiful array oftbose dear trea.

littleabeauties ofgbonnets, Eof alb styles,
and trimmed in every imaginable way,
with brightribbons and delicate flowers,
formed With exquisite taste by the fairy
hands. Of blooming maidens.

How to Fall AsIccn.

The great point to be gained is to es>
cape from hought-especialiy from that
clinging, tenacious, i;rperious thought
which. in most cases of wukefuIness, has
possession Of the mind. / always effect
this by the following simple process: l
turn my eycballs as lar 10 the right or
left. or upwards or downwards, as l can
without pain. and then commence rolling
them slowly with that divergence from a
direct line of vision around in their sock
els and continue doing this until fall
asleep; WHICH occurs generally within
three minutes and always within five at
most. The Immediate effect Of this pro-
cedure differs from that of any other
which lever heard, to produce sleep. 1t
not merely diverts thought into a new
channel, but actually suspends it. rs
Since have become aware of this,
have epdeavored innumerable times,
while thus. rolling my eyes. to think upon
particular subject, and even upon that
which before kept me awake, but could
not. As long as they were moving
around, my mind was blank. If any one
doubts this. let him try the experiment
for himself. I wish he would let him
pause just here and makeit it. venture to
assure him that If he makes it in good
faith in the manner described, the prom
ise of " q penny for his thoughts or for
each of them while the operation is in pro-
gress. will add very little to his wealth.
Such being its effect, we canuot wonder
that it sbonld bring sleep to q nervous
and wakeful man at night. The philoso-
ply of the matter is very simple. The
suspension of thought is to the mind what
q suspension of travel or lobor is to. the
weary body. It enjoys the luxury Of the
rest; the strain upon its faculties removed,
it falls asleep as naturally as the farmer
in his; chair after toiIing all day in his
