had been declared. with his new laurels he went 10
the Far West in the service of his country, and
became explorer and Indian fighter. He made
an expedition against the Aurickaree Indians on
the Upper Missouri. In the intervals Of fighting he

Many brain workers suffer from inability sleep.
This is frequently met with among those who work
late at night. The sufferers complain that they feel
most lively just when the time for retiring has
come, and that long period OF restlcssness pre-
cedes a troubled sluUiber. from which the slightest
noise awakens them This is very often caused
almost entirely by overndulgence in tobacco. They
smoke just before going bed ignorant OF the fact
that not only may tobacco prevent sleep tempo
rarly. but that il may render il less deep and
sequently less refreshing. grave responsibility
attaches to those who lightly seek to relieve a
symptom which Is really warning by recourse
to dangerous palliative. The inability to sleep
Is often merely the outcome of unnatural mode
of life. and II this be corrected the disability dis
