A Nights Rest.

The food passes from the stomach at
the right side, hence its passage is fa-
cilitated by going to sleep on the right
side. Water and other fluids flow
equally on level, and 1t requires less
power to propel them on level than
upward. The heart propels the blood
to every part of the body at each sue
cessive beat, and it is easy to see that ii
the body is in horizontal position the
blood will be sent to the various parts
of the system with greater ease, with
less expenditure of power, and more
perfectly than could possibly be done
if one portion of the body was eleva-
ted above a horizontal line. On the
other hand, If one portion of the body
is too low, the blood does not return as
readily as it is carried thither; hence,
there is an accumulation and disten-
sion, and pain soon follows. If a per-
son goes to sleep with the head but a
very little lower than the body, he will
either soon wake up or will die with
apoplexy before the morning, simply
because the blood could not get back
from the brain as fast as it was carried
to it. If person lays himself down
on level floor to sleep, portion of
the head at least is lower than the
heart, and discomfort is soon induced (;
hence, very properly the world over
the head is elevated during sleep. The
savage uses log of wood or bunch of
leaves; the civilized pillow, and if
this pillow is too thick, raising the
head too high there is not blood enough
carried to the brain, and as the brain is
nourished, renewed, and invigOrated
by the nutriment it receives from the
blood during sleep, it is pot fed suffi-
GENTLY, and the result is unquiet sleep
during the night, and waking up in
weariness, without refreshment, to be
followed by day of drowsiness, dis
comfort, and general inactivity of both
mind and body.
The healthful mean is a pillow
which, by the pressure of the head,
keeps it about four inches above the
level of the bed or mattrass, nor should
the pillow be so soft as to allow the
head to be buried in 1t and excite per-
spiratiOn, endangering ear ache or cold
in the head on turning over. The pill
low should be hard enough to prevent
the head sinking more than about three
inches, ,nM'W1. MI. " ~ NV s

Sweet is Revenge.

He was a very estimable young man,
and her parents had invited him TO stop
TO supper. She was behaving in the
most charming manner, while the old
folks beamed benevOlently around the
table on all. There was one dark cloud,
however. The young heir, aged elev-
en-, was evidently not at ease, and gave
premonitlons of an outbreak of some
nature, that certainly would not APP
pear well before a visitor. A slight
nervousness peryaded the behavior OF
the young miss in consequence of this
fact.
"Father!" calculated the heir, dur
ing lull in the conversation, and with
such suddenness that the young man
bit lis tongue.
"What is it, my son?" inquired the
father mildly.
'Do you know where Jen was las
night?" said the heir, maleyolently
scowling at the visitor as he spoke.
"Hush, Charley" said the sister,
with horrible look, while the young
man turned red, white and blue in ra-
pid succession.
"Never mind, nOw,' said the mother
soothingly.
"Oh, yes, you say never mind-oh
yes :" exclaimed the heir, Indignantly
"but if you'd seen 'er an this feller's
arm hOldin' on her shawl"
"Oh, what lie! !" screamed theyung
lady, Historically, while the young
man grasped the sides of the chair and
tried to pull himself out of his perspi-
ratiOn-soaked shirt
The father was equal to the occasion.
He grabbed the heir by the ear, and
lifted him through the door. And when
the horrOr-stricken young man soon
after tottered out the door and down
the street, the dreadful boy stood
behind the fence, and hissed through
a crack:
"Oh, you sop-headed pill-you-you
boarding-house-hash masticator, per-
haps you'll make yerself kind enough to
'squeal' on me again when you see me
with the fellers in swimming on Sun
day down at the 'brick-yard.
