SLEEPING DEPORTNENT.
Girls Should Slumber with Their
Mouths Shut and Never Wear
Night Caps.

The teachers of department are
common enough ia the persons of
dancing masters, but their in
structions relate entirely, SO far as
] have known, to the waking mo-
ments of their pupils. But I
have come across a trainer of
sleepers. She is the principal of
one of New York's many finish
ing" schools, where girls are pre-
sumed to get the fral touches of
polish to fit them exquisitely for
society. Having been informed
that she included in her course of
lectures one on the art of slumber-
ing presentably, l begged her to
tell me about it. 81 see no objec-
ton to that" she responded, "and
it is simple enough. We try here
to trainlour pupils so that they will
become thoroughly agreeable
ladies. Did you ever consider
that a third of your time is, or
ought to be, spent in sleep? And,
if you did, it is highly improbable
that you have had a Thought as to
how you looked when sleeping.
Well, it does not make so much
difference in a man, perhaps, but n
girl owes it to herself to be at all
times as handsome as she can,
irrespective Of her natural expec-
tahon of becoming a wife. There
fore, l have introduced the study
of slumberous comeliness. The
main fault to be corrected is that
OF sleeping with the mouth open.
Very many girls do it. 1t is a
habit carelessly acquired, but
often hard to eradicate. Dread
fully unfeminine snoring is con-
sequence. l teach my girls to
close their lips snugly before
dropping asleep, and to avoid
throwing their heads too far back
on the pillow, SO that their mouths
won't fall open as soon as the
muscles are relaxed. / conjure
them, too, to prepare q toilet as
careful, though less elaborate.
shan that for the day. Their
night clothes should be neat, well
fitting and adapted to their in
dividuality. They should regard
a night cap with horror. Their
hair should not be unbecomingly
done up in tight knot, but ad-
justed with a view to both com
fort and presentability. Their
poses on the couch should no more
be awkward than those of their
waking hours, and l instruct
them to so habituate themselves
to gracefulness in bed that it will
become instructive. That's about
all there is of the system" "-Bos-
ton Herald

Epithelioma or Skin Cancer.

This form OF cancer is the most
prevalent type, and is in many
cases fatal, as it gradually eats
away until it destroys life. 1t
would seem that Sw::ft's Specific is
indeed a specific for this scourge.
Mrs. X. A. Armstrong, Verona,
Miss, writes under date OF May
l6, 1884: after taking six bot
ties of Swift's Specific the cancer
is healing; is greatly reduced in
size. 1t now gives me no pain,
and my general health has so
much improved that | am able to
be up n attend to my household
duties-something [ had not been
able to do in several years. | feel
that it will cure me-"
Mr.. NJ. N. Clayton, OF Red Cley,
Ga, writes under recent date: "All
painful sensations in my cancer
are decreasing. l feel decidedly
better, and the cancer has CON-
menced to heal"
DR.. NJ. f. Crumley, Cglethorre, e,
Ga, writes under date of May
10th: "Mr. Naves, who had such
terrible cancer on his face, is
about we'll. New skin has grown
all over his face, and looks almost
as we'll as it ever did, and / would
like some of youl company to see
him"
Messrs. J. & J. B. Harter, of
North Manchester, Ind, write, un-
der date of May 1st; "TLe lady
with cancer is improving right
along. The Specific increased the
discharge for the first few days,
but the soreness is gone and she
Is much better"
Mrs. W. H. Route, of Gordons-
vile, Va, writes, under date of
May IL, 1891; Il ana much i'm
proved. The cancer is better
does not pain me at ali. 1t is a
wonder to all nv friends"
Mr., James E. Ligon, of Michau1
Ferry, Va, writes, under date of
May 10. 1884: MY condition is
greatly improved; my general
health is good; my appe tite good
cancer decidedly better, and has
begun to heal nicely. How can l
ever repay you ?"
Mr.. j. S. Rhodes, of Mill River,
N. c., writes, under date of
May l9, 1884: "My mother has
been using Swift's Specific about
two weeks, and is improving. The
cancer is not now painful and is
healing"
Mr.. I. J. Teate, of Waciosa
Fla, writes, under date of May 2
1894: "Swift's Specific has cured
a cancer on my face, and has al
most made q young man out OF
me-"
Mr.. E. Tinsley, of Burr Mills,
Va, writes May l, 1884: "My
wife has taken four bottles of
Swift's Specific for a cancer, and
has improved wonderfully. | shall
keep it up; have no doubt it will
