IT'S THE TRUTH THAT XU RTS.
Don't Steep together.

More 1uarrels occur between
brothers, between sisters, between
hired girls. between clerks in stores,
between apprentices in mechanics
shops, between hired men, between
husbands and wives, owing to elec-
trical changes through which their
nervous systems so by lodging to-
gether night after night under the
same bcdclothcs, than by almost
any other disturbing cause. There
is nothing that will derange the
nervous system of a person who is
eliminativc in nervous force, MS to
lie all night in bed with another
person who is absorbent in nervous
force. The absorber will 60 to
sleep and rest all night, while tho
climinator will be tumbling and
tossing, restless and nervous, and
wake up in tho morning ircttul
and peevish, fault-tinding and dis
couraged. No two persons, no
matter who they are, should ha-
bitually sleep together. Ono will
thrive, the other will lose. This is
the law, and in married life is de-
fed almost universally.
