How TO GET SLEEP.-How to get sleep
is, to many persons, a matter of great i'm
portance. Nervous persons who are troub-
led with wakefulness and excitabilty, usu-
ally have strong tendency of blood to the
brain, with cold extremities. The pres
ence of blood on the brain keeps ii in a
stimulated or wakeiul state, and the pulsa-
tions in the head are often painful. Let
persons thus troubled rise and chafe the
body and eXtremities with a crash towel, or
rub smartly with the hands, to promote
circulation and withdraw the excessive
amount of blood from the brain, and they
will fall asleep in a few minutes. A cold
bath, or sponge bath and rubbing, good
run or a rapid walk in the open air, or 60
ing up and down stairs few times Just be-
fore retiring, will aid in oqualizing the cir
culation and promoting sleep. The above
rules are simple and easy Of application
anywhere, and may minister to the comfort
of thousands who would freely expend
money for anodynes 10 promote Nature s
sweet restorer-balmy sleep.

FIRE-PROOF BUILDH.V'GS.

The method of building fire-proof walls
invented few years ago by Mr.. Edwin
May, of indianapolis, has lately attracted
a good deal of attention, and secured very
general adoption throughout the West by
the architects of most of the large public
buildings in the principal cities. Though
very simple in all respects this method
has the highest testimonials as to its effect
iveness. 1t consists in the substitution of
iron for wooden laIhing. The iron is put
on in a corrugated form over the walls,
floors and ceilings of the room, and in its
grooves and interstices the plaster or &C.
ment is imbcdded In ceilings the plaster,
which has firm hold, owing to the curry
ing projection from each lath, has a much
firmer hold than upon the ordinary wood
Ell lath. Between the iron lathing of the
ceiling and that of the floor above arc
wooden ioists which are imbedded in NOR
tar or cement and thus protected from fire

floors of building are thus constructed,
it is impossible for fire to be communicate
ed from one room to another through the
walls, and while the flooring, wood work
and furniture of one room might be en-
tiroly consumed, the safety of the build
ing would not be imperilled or its strength
impaired. When the question of adopting
this principle in the construction of the
public library building at Cincinnati was
under discussion, ii was subjected to Sc

heat the plaster and iron lathing so hot as
