service against insomnia.
Another method which others have
found more useful is to excite the cur

asleep; that is, to start his
dream before he falls asleep.
II one wakes with an unfinished
dream in his mind let him try to go to
sleep again by catching up the thread
of the dream and dwelling on it. Say

some dream that is a favOrite with
him, which he often repeats in sleep,
and start it agOing when he finds it

dream of his, which waa at first of
a nightmare sort. and which used to
wakcn him, but which he has got now

Feeding in sheep %husbandry Is

Good water is absolutely necessary

Whenever it is intelligently practiccd,

If half the crops of apples, pears or

The proper temperature for sweet
potatoes in winter is about sixty de-
grees. If they are not exposed to a
temperature lower than fifty-six de-
grees they will keep easily, When
first stored in the cellar they should
be kept at seventy degrees until well
dried, gradually lowering the temper
allure TO sixty degrees.

Although the circumstances under

But let the unfortunate man try n
variation OF his usual method which

straight on let him frequently inter-
rupt it by something that requires
constant attention. For example
whenever the ScUen comes, or anv

LIFE IN DEATH.

whose grassy mounds, all blossomed oven
Lie basking in the sunny afr;
through all the hazy August weather
Ihclr silent tenants sleep beneath,
Nhere youth and age in dust together
Are equal heirs Of Death.
VAN record now OF love and pleasure,
VI mlrth anu beauty, born to die;
1ho sunkon stones, in mourning measure
Bespeak sorrow long run dry,
Like dusty letters, quaint of fashion,
some old, forgotten chest displays,
Whose following leaves yield up their passloi
In many a courtly phrase.
Inc maid vita every grace upon her
Has slipped the arms that held her fast
TO share alike with shame and honor
The sweet oblivion OF the past.
Not one OF nll tho loved and loving
who watched about her shining head
returns at nightfali, darby moving,
10 dream above the dead,
iet warmth and faith ana youths emotion
Our dusty paths with f~ragance fiji;

In siIont teaching quicllcns still.
