Eat Before Going to Bed.

Most students and women who are
troubled with inSomania are dyspctic,
and they should therefore eat before GO
ing to bed, having pHt aside work en-
tircly at least an hour before. If they
are not hungry they should simply be
instructed To eat, and if they are hungry
they should eat whatever they want. \
glass of milk and a biscuit is sometimes
all that can be taken at first, or mashed
potato buttered. If possible, the night
meal should be taken in another room
than the sleeping apartment, and for

fore eating. however, a bath should be
taken. preferably cold or cool, which
should be given with a sponge or stiff
brush. and the body thoroughly rubbed
off with a coarse towel aftcrward. The
bath need not be more than five minutes
in duration. Further than this, the
patient should go To bed at the same
hour every morning. There is Il popular

see why adults should be so very different
in this respect from babies. The average
person should be in bed seven or eight
hours. which is time enough for the d-

ROSES. LILIES, AND STARS.
BY Kill CoURTLAND.

By Kill CouRTLAND.
Red rose, why do you pout?
All have found you out;
You droop, for a lover bold
Has grown cold-so cold
His heart has been offered and sold
For gold, sweet rose, for gold.
Lilies, why 90 you sigh
Under the jasper sky?
You think of the hazy high lands
Sleeping beneath broad sky lands,
OF the CLEAN of silver rye lands
AMI peoples afame in the rye lands.
Why, bright stars, are you cleaning
Now while the earth is dreaming?
VIII you lend your pearl-tipped light
To the souls who pass tonight,
As they drift away from our mortal sight
Up to the Throne steps, pure and white.

II seems certainly true of our land
that of the making of coffee pots Their" is
no end" Probably there is no country,
England possibly claiming the honor of
an exception. where such Enthusiastically
bad coffee is the rule. Yet there is no
country where yearly so many patents
are granted for cotfce-potS. Ali the
cotlee-pots patented in the last de-
cadc depend for their success, with
few exceptions. on the recognition
of the fact that there is but one way to
make perfect cotfec-that is by percola-
ton. a method which has been used in
French kitchens since coffee was in
troduced. There is not the slightest
complex mechanism needed for dripping
coffee. Any tin cup holding pint. with
a perforated bottom, which can be set
down in Il porcelain or faicncc coffee pot
is all that is needed. The coffee, pow
dered fine, should be laid in a bag or
square of cheese cloth, fitted into the
cup. Fresh boiling water is now poured
slowly on and allowed to drip through.
Tin or any other metal is unfit for a
coffee pot. Even the beautiful silver
cafctiere, decorated in niello work, is a
deluSlon and snare. Porcelain or pottery
is the only material that can be kept
clean as the acid of coffee readily unitcS

ity of tin. so it is a small item. Very
pretty coffee pots are made of Carlsbad
ware, decorated with shields and gull

models of a hundred years ago: theS" are
