are numerous cases of it in my expert

How do 1 treat it? o! usually be-
gin by asking questions.
Il ask my patients whether they
have unusual worries which they lie
awake o. nights to think over. / in
quire if they make a practice Of going
to exciting plays or reading exciting
books before they seek their downy
couches. And you have no idea how
many women regard an evenings enter
tainment as a miserable failure unless
it is full of excitement.
''They go to see their Second Mrs.
Tanquerays' or they read their Heaven
ly Twins all evening and come to me
the next morning to know why they
don't sleep! Why, excitement is as
much foe to slumber as a guilty con-
science is.
'Then I find out what kind of physical
food they take before going to bed
whether it is a harmless cracker or
two or rest disturbing Welsh rarebit
or fried oysters. Of course, if they per-
siSt in foolish evening feasts, whether

thing with them. But if they assure me
that nothing more thrilling than Maria

digeStible than Graham crackers form
their bedtime banquets am willing to
take them in hand.
II tell them to take a very hot bath,
or at least hot foot bath, before going
| to bed. That will almost invariably
produce the most delicious drowsy SEN
sationS.
Then bid them open wide their
windows, for fresh air is~a great aid
to healthy slumber.
Then when they are safe abed l
charge them not to let their minds
think of anything connected with the
daily routine. l try to make them pict-
ure to themselves long, even stretches
Of prairie, with the grass slightly

their minds some quiet, soothing image
they are saved, and will be asleep be-
fore they know it.
