let things rest as they were. Winter

approached, and the one that had a

an exciting chase ensued over mile

Then why did you run away?"

off, and the keeper only whistled, and

Sac Paulo College, Brazil. The
need of college in Brazil, for the pur-

posed by the general assembly of the
Northern Presbyterian church, in 1889.
The college owes its existence to the
tireless activity and the generous gifts

A Teacher of Sleep Tells What to DO IN
the Arms of Morpheus.
There has actually been found a
new field for expert invasion. A per-
son has arisen who thinks we do not
know how to sleep, and suggests that
some one making speciality of this
culture should announce himself
teacher of Sleep" and predicts for
this pioneer, be 1t man or woman,
large fortune. How not to sleep is al
so explained. Anna Payson Call tells
it in her book, Power Through Re-
pose" Don't adopt any habitual atti-
tude when you go to sleep As you
are when you drop away in the arms
of Morpheus you are likely to stay for
some time, and, if you tie yourself up
in hard knots, before they are united
by the soothing power of slumber
they will leave their impress
Round shoulders, uneven hips, pro.
truding collar bones, to say nothing of
the horrid wrinkles from squeezing
the eyes shut and knitting the face in
to lines and burrows, are few of the
evils which result from not knowing
how to go to sleep. Even young wom-
en- are to listen and take warning, for
the bad work Is soon done and it is
hard to undo. Lie fiat on the back, on
q mattress which Is not too soft, the
head on small pillow; the room must
be cool and the clothing warm but
light The eyes should be lightly
closed and the hands left easily at the
sides Do not draw the corners of your
mouth down, which will make those
ugly creases from the nose down to-
ward the chin. 1t is easy to cultivate
this sense of relaxation. Learn to inn
agine yourself heavy, as if you could
not help letting q tons weight down
on the mattress.
Take lesson from the baby; he
sleeps In utter physical abandonment
That Is why he falls out of bed, and
why, as he grows older and begins to
keep the tension of waking hours
through slumber time, he stops falling
out of bed. Watch tonight and see
how you are managing it, and If you
are on your arms, are crossing your
knees, putting your hands above you
on the pillow, crowding your toes in
between the mattress and footboard,
tucking your hand under your cheek,
curving yourself around like pa
renthesis mark-stop all or any such
practices right away and try simple,
relaxed repose-Chicago Tribune.
