when asleep Should the mother by chance
find her pappoose sleeping with its mouth
open she would know thatits head was thrown
too far back, and she also knew that by NOV
ing its head little forward and gently pinch
ing its lips with her fingers the child would
soon involuntarily keep its right position and
mouth closed at the same time. 1t seems in
credible that our so-called Indian mothers
should think more than our mothers of to-
day. For after all do we not all know it is
through lying Cd the back with head improp-
erly placed that snoring is caused? 2 And when
the position OF the sleeper is changed and he
is made to lie on the side with the head a lit
tie forward the mouth is closed, the nose per-
forms its proper function, and there are no
more snores heard and no m ore com plants of

Committee of Fifty ON Tuesday, and the
proceedings taken at the time, show that
active work is being done by the commit
tee to guard the interests of California
against the proposed funding of the debts
of the Pacific railroads. This work, taken

The most notable work recently accom-
plished by the committee has been the
preparation of a memorial to Congress
giving history of the dealings OF the
Central Pacific roads with the Govern
ment, and showing thereby how futile it
would be for Congress to trust the COM
pany any further after it had so COM
pleteIy defaulted in every obligation in
the past.
The memorial, which is very long one,
will serve to make clear to members of
Congress the nature of the men with
whom they have to deal in this issue.
