4 littler More Slumber.

Various remnants of the old Puritanic
way Of thinking aud doing still survive
among US. and notable among them Is
the heroic method of dealing with child
rem. and of trying TO make their lives
conform To the standard which in its day
eliminated all but the soundest and
strongest from any sort of life. This l.
seen. n often as in any other form. in
the way the mother will have all her
children out of bed at given early hour,
regardless of eyes still full of sleep. of
little limbs not yet quite over their
WEAKNESS. of the faint answers and long
lngerugs after "A second call. either be-
canse She likes to have her family break
fast together, or wants to make one
piece of work of it. or has a notion that
early rising is good for the health. Each
of these reasons is good reason. Ger
tainly it is pleasant. conducive to good
cheer and family life. to have all the
household breakfast at once; and quite
AS certainly it adds to the heayiness of
the house-work very materially if there
are stragglers at the morning meal, and
one breakfast has to be served after an
other while of course early to bed and
early to rise is a saying not without
truth in relation tornakng one healthy,
wealthy and wise.
But there are always the circum
stances which alter cases. The stout
and hearty child who went to sleep with
the birds can afford to get up with the
birds his body, his brain, his nerves,
have had all the rest they need in the
long sweet hours of slumber, and If he
does not respond to the call he is posi-
bly, sluggard whose fault must be
amended.
But the mother will do well to make
sure of the fact that he has in reality
had all the sleep he needs before she
wakes him with an imperative summons.
If he is not stout and healthy child it
is not certain that he has slept well, for
both restless nerves and indigestion have
part to play in the night, if there is no
other more patent trouble. And il he
is an excitable child, precocious or studi-
Gus, then, the hours of sleep being the
only ones in which the brain repairs its
loss and hurt, it Is matter of vital
moment that those hours should have
their full number. An old physician, of
long practice and great practice and
great wisdom, used to say that slight
aiment often did good if it obliged the
patient to go to bed a few days, as he
gained thereby the rest of the bed for
the whole body, which was often of
essential benefit. And of quite as much
benefit is this same rest--the abandon,
the PROSTATE position, the lifting and
holding of every portion of the frame by
the bed--to the growing form and tired
muscles of the romping child, who, with
his natural impatience for daylight and
its new pleasures, is really unlikely to
take any too much of wallpapers Ba-

A Clearing Up.

1t is good plan during the fruit gath
cling season to pick all diseased fruit left
on or about the trees for the purpose Of
burning This, of course, destroys the
germs that originated the decay. Some
Of our fruit growers pass through the
o. chard after the leaves have fallen and
gather them up for burning, especially so,
when they have been diseased. 1t is
better done at this season than delayed
until spring when the fungi have reached
maturity.

Rag Carpets.

There is much to be said in favor of
rag carpets. They are very durable and
cheaper than any other kind. Nothing
is more suitable for the dining room or
sitting room in the country. where the
children are continually tracking mud
and dirt in. When house cleaning time
comes they can be taken up, the breadths
ripped apart, and after they are washed
are as nice as new. a floor covered with
one Is certainly more comfortable than if
It Is left bare, and one can put the baby
down on it without his taking cold.

very outset Of this disturbance was the
arrest of Debs and his incarceration un-
der guard at Fort Sheridan. No com
munIcation should have been permitted
with him and no bonds accepted for his
good behavior. He should have been
held as a hostage as a protection of innO-
cent people and his misguided followers,
as well as the preservation Of law and
order.
