About .Sleepinn-Thnsa "

.about ,Steeping.-Those who are
troubled with paIpitation Of the heart
should sleep with their heads high
aud never have The head under the
bed clothes. 1t is customary for
many people TO cover their heads
aud slumber 10 this manner. This
is injurious to the lungs, as the air
That is exhaled is at the next no
ment inhaled. Some children get
into this habit. and parents should
be very careful to watch them and
break it up. To wash the face,
hands, and teeth before going to bed
contributes much to sound aud re-.
freshing slumber, and refreshing sleep
is sc necessary to the health of body
and mind MS our daily food. Night
is the best period Of repose, as it is
the most natural. Those whose oc-
cupations lead them to be much
awake at night, often FALL into con-
sumptive disease. Eight hours is
no, TOO long period to sleep, al
though many never sleep more than
six.
